Students attend women’s health workshop
Students attend interprofessional women’s health workshop
Year 4C medical students from South Gippsland were joined by a number of nursing students based in the area for a full day women’s health workshop held at the South Gippsland Community Health Centre in Foster.
The topics included breast lumps, contraception and menopause management with the format featuring a range of both formal presentations and small group case studies.
Presenters included Dr Elizabeth Farrell, head of the Menopause Unit at Monash Medical Centre, and a director and consultant gynaecologist at the Jean Hailes Foundation.
The day was particularly beneficial to the students, given their exams were fast approaching and according to organisers, they all enjoyed the interprofessional nature of the day.
