Medical students remote consulting from home and from the health centre: A survey of prevalence and supervisor perspectives

Not yet rated

We published an evaluation designed to determine the degree to which remote consulting has become mainstream in medical education, and to explore the barriers to further uptake of medical students consulting from home. This was to our knowledge, the first study to quantify the scale of medical student involvement in telephone and video consulting. Our results also identify why some doctors may feel reluctant to supervise medical students consulting from home and suggest approaches for addressing this. It is anticipated our findings will help inform future strategic planning of medical education nationally.
