In this workshop students will learn about the first aid training provided to medical students to give them a taster of what it is like to study medicine. Learners will find out about how medical students are taught to deal with unexpected situations. For example, how to respond to an unresponsive patient and how to deal with someone choking. The session is interactive and requires group work (although this can be completed individually if not possible to work in a group). Please note that this workshop is a higher education subject taster session into medicine and is not formal first aid training.

Booking a Subject Spotlight

The University of Manchester’s Subject Spotlight workshops are a range of higher education subject taster workshops presented by University of Manchester PhD students. These pre-recorded digital workshops provide learners with an in-depth insight into a subject which can be studied at university. When you book a Subject Spotlight workshop you will receive everything you need to deliver this workshop in your own classroom using minimal classroom resources. To support you in delivering this workshop, you will be sent a lesson plan and a pre-recorded video presentation with clear points of where to pause the video to allow learners to complete group tasks. When delivered in full these workshops will fill approximately one lesson (~45-60 mins).
