Teaching & Placement Resources
-
Bring whole-person care into simulation and clinical assessment.
A comprehensive educator resource for designing and facilitating Beyond the Diagnosis-informed OSCEs and simulations. It includes 8 adaptable OSCE stations, simulated-patient briefs, observable-behaviour rubrics, examiner guidance, marking templates, candidate feedback frameworks and station-development tools.
Designed to help universities assess how students communicate, avoid assumptions, support patient voice and participation, protect dignity and consent, check understanding and apply whole-person reasoning in realistic healthcare encounters.
-
Help students connect learning with real clinical experience.
A structured reflection resource for students applying Beyond the Diagnosis during clinical placement.
Students are prompted to consider assumptions, patient voice, communication, appearance-related conversations, understanding, choice, family involvement and the person's healthcare experience — before identifying what they would do differently next time.
-
Build deeper reflection into healthcare education.
A structured reflection tool that can be used following case-based learning, simulation, clinical skills teaching, placement or other learning experiences.
Students consider assumptions, priorities, communication, power, social and family context and previous healthcare experiences before identifying how their future practice might change.
-
Support thoughtful clinical language and documentation.
Five practical prompts help students consider whether the language they use in discussion, documentation, simulation and clinical practice is accurate, necessary, neutral, person-led and inclusive.
Useful for communication teaching, case analysis, documentation activities and reflective learning.
-
Extend learning beyond the core program.
Give students and educators access to focused learning when a particular issue becomes relevant.
Release 1 includes 22 clinical topics spanning psychosocial and whole-person care, children and families, shared decision-making, communication, dignity and healthcare experience, and condition-specific learning.
