We are approaching the end of the year and we have had a busy couple of months preparing year 2 and year 3 students for their exams. We've broken a record and organised not 1, but 4 mock exams !!
Thirdly....
🧠 Psychiatry OSCE Night (Sponsored by PIF)
What an incredible Psychiatry OSCE Night hosted by FMSSNT in collaboration with the Psychiatry Interest Forum (PIF) and proudly supported by NT Health psychiatrists and registrars! 💬
We ran 6 groups, 2 online for our remote students and 4 groups in person in Darwin. Psychiatrists Dr Tamoor Mirza and Dr Sarah Dorrington provided useful tips for sitting the Psychiatry OSCE station, something students had advised they wanted more practice with.
Students had the chance to sharpen their psych history-taking skills, explore real-life management plans, and connect directly with doctors passionate about mental health care. 💜
A big shoutout to PIF for sponsoring this night — students loved the handouts, resources, and career advice about psychiatry training. Our examiners and SPs enjoyed their appreciation gifts, and everyone loved the delicious meal from a local Chinese restaurant 🥢🍚
Events like this remind us how meaningful collaboration between students, doctors, and sponsors can be in shaping the next generation of compassionate clinicians.
Thank you to April Ren our Academic Director and Shweta Tanna our President for organising this unique event!
