Bairnsdale hosts intern training
The second rotation of interns at Bairnsdale Hospital begins in March and as part of their orientation they are must attend an emergency skills workshop. Year 4C and 5D medical students also take advantage of the workshop. Facilitated by local clinicians, workshop stations include asthma, management of an adult trauma, a MET (medical emergency team) call, approach to the unwell child, and basic airway management including LMA (Laryngeal Mask Airway). Interns are required to do at least one rotation in a rural area.
