The Failsafe Method for Clinical Examinations

When preparing for clinical exams, almost all trainees focus exclusively on the content of the examination. This would be the right approach for almost any other type of examination. But knowing your content is not necessarily enough to pass a clinical examination - you also need to communicate clearly and present well under pressure.

This book will take you through the ‘Fail-safe Method’ for approaching any clinical exam - whether you are a training in medicine, surgery, nursing, dentistry, physiotherapy...or any other health profession! Using the Fail-safe approach to clinical examinations will make sure that you are able to communicate and deliver the content you know with confidence. And you will be prepared to do it regardless of the circumstances.

Developed by an Australian physician, the Fail-safe method will take you through the 3 clear steps, including covering topics such as:
- dealing with the 'grumpy examiner', the 'brain freeze' & other exam-day 'curve balls'
- how to ensure you perform at a high level (even under pressure)
- avoiding common mistakes the day before your exam

So, let’s begin!
