Dr. Evelyn Ferguson, who is the Lead Clinical Trainer for Obstetrics and Gynaecology in NHS Lanarkshire, has established a comprehensive teaching program at the University Hospital Wishaw, which gives medical students a personal timetable to experience the practical challenges of the field while complementing it with daily tutorials delivered by the students to their peers. The students also attend clinical skills and simulation days where they are able to lead the management of patients with deteriorating conditions. Some of Dr. Ferguson’s trainees even made a short video(link is external) about their training at the University Hospital Wishaw. In addition to her work at NHS Lanarkshire, Dr. Ferguson has developed a number of training courses to develop confidence in complex operative delivery, which are offered to all Scottish trainees. Dr. Ferguson hopes that her training programs and courses will help NHS Lanarkshire train and retain a high-caliber group of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.
