The Rural Clinical School Year 10 Health Careers Practical Skills workshops are day-long programs offered at our Burnie and Mersey campuses annually, giving students an opportunity to learn and practise essential skills used by health professionals.
Each workshop is divided into simulation stations. Participants receive an initial presentation from medical students, before working in teams to apply problem-solving techniques in hands-on scenarios. Health stations allow students to practise responding to casualties in an emergency, administer first aid, make a medical diagnosis by piecing together clues, learn to take blood, check blood pressure and understand chronic illnesses such as diabetes.
The workshops also share information about the University of Tasmania’s higher education courses in health, and what steps and subjects Year 10 students need to take during their pre-tertiary college years in pursuit of a health career.
