Students will be given the opportunity to act as expert patients for the Objective Structured Practical Examinations (OSPEs). Roles will vary and the aim is to provide realistic portrayal of scenarios. The Fellowship in Immediate Medical Care (FIMC) examinations will consist of more complex scenarios and require students within the clinical years of their degree programme.
If you are selected to help support the exam diet, you must honour this commitment. Please ensure you have authorisation from your university to attend the examinations before committing. In order to assist you with organising time off with your university, the faculty are happy to provide a letter of support.
CPD Event
A CPD Event will be run during the exam diet as a thank you for your participation. The topic will be chosen by the students and Examination Convenor to ensure it is as relevant and informative as possible.
If you would like to get involved, please email: fphc-studentsupporters@rcsed.ac.uk
This is an exciting opportunity to gain insight in to what is expected of you in the future should you choose to pursue this as your chosen career. On behalf of myself and the FPHC, we look forward to welcoming you to the examinations.
Sophie Riley
FPHC Junior Examinations Officer
Please note:
Being a Supporter on any of the FPHC examinations (currently DIMC, FIMC, DRTM, DUMC, DMIM) prevents you from sitting the same examination for a minimum period of 3 years from your last involvement. We welcome students from paramedic, nursing and medical backgrounds. We can only accept Doctor volunteers up to the level of Foundation Year 2.
Due to essential systems maintenance and upgrades there will be intermittent interruptions to some on-line services on Saturday 27th of February. There will be further interruption to some core services on Wednesday 2nd and Thursday 3rd of March.
