A 3rd year medical student, James, is currently undergoing his Neurology
placement in the hospital wards. He is leading a team of 8 fellow medical
students in the class. Every morning and afternoon it is his responsibility to ask
everyone else in the group to sign the class attendance sheet, and at the end of
the teaching session to submit it to the doctor in charge of the teaching. James
notices that one of the students is frequently absent, and that another
classmate is often signing the attendance sheet on their behalf.
How appropriate are each of the following responses by James in this
situation?
James should discuss the situation with other members of the class and act
accordingly to their suggestions
A. A very appropriate thing to do
B. Appropriate, but not ideal
C. Inappropriate, but not awful
D. A very appropriate thing to do Answer - This option is inappropriate, but not
awful. Although it is good to discuss with the rest of the team and listen to
their opinions, in this situation the opinions from the rest of the team
members may influence the decision James makes. He may be pressured by his
peers into not reporting the fellow classmate so that the classmate does not
get into trouble. James may lose trust from some of the fellow classmates who
disagree with James's choice of action.
It is Monday morning in a busy Respiratory ward. You are a FY1 and are rushing
to be on time for the morning ward round. After grabbing your coffee and
meeting up with the rest of the team, you pay attention to the ward round and
review the charts of the patient being seen at the moment. The respiratory
consultant is seeing a 47 year old gentleman who has been diagnosed with
, sarcoidosis. The consultant has recommended that the patient should be
treated with anti-inflammatory drugs and bed rest and the symptoms should
settle down over time. However, you disagree in your mind and think his
sarcoidosis is quite severe he should be started on 20 mg oral prednisolone for
his symptoms.
How appropriate are each of the following responses in this situation?
You directly say to the consultant that he is making the wrong decision and the
patient should instead be given oral prednisolone.
A. A very appropriate thing to do
B. Ap Answer - This option is inappropriate, but not awful. This choice of action
would come across as too direct and insulting to the consultant, who may
become angry with your arrogance since you are only an FY1 and he is a
consultant with several years of experience.
