In this video, we cover: • The ethical principles guiding your decision-making • How “planting the idea” early can transform your marks across all 3 domains • What working in partnership with patients looks like in practice • A simple, high-yield interpersonal skill to show that you're always involving the patient in decisions - applicable across most stations • Demonstrating a biopsychosocial approach in your management plan • Striking the right balance between showing your clinical knowledge and skills while recognising your limitations as an FY2 doctor • Principles of aftercare (FSL) and why they are often missed • What examiners are really looking for in these stations ──────────────────── ⏱️Chapters 0:00 - Intro 0:22 - Understanding the Task 0:41 - Ethical Principles in Decision-Making 1:32 - Opening the Consultation (Where Marks Are Lost Early) 1:59 - Exam Roleplay: Data Gathering 5:07 - Exam Roleplay: Management 6:33 - Non-Pharmacological Management Options 7:22 - “Planting the Idea” Early & Addressing Concerns (ICE) 8:25 - Explaining the Appointment & Medication Risks 8:53 - Key Themes in Management 10:12 - Involving the Patient in Decision-Making 10:52 - Senior / Specialist Input 12:04 - Exam Scoring for this Station 13:10 - Aftercare (FSL) ──────────────────── ✨ Editing Aiste Mileryte 📷 Instagram:   / meleriis   📩 Email: [email protected] ──────────────────── 🎵 Audio Track 1: Yesterday - Cloudbee Track 2: Can You See Me? - Antn42 Track 3: Detached - JVD Track 4: Keep My Head High - Lavish Track 5: On My Way - Ghostrifter ──────────────────── #ukmla #plab2 #plab #plab2preparation #cpsa #mla #plab2exam #plab2preparation #plab2academy #plab2quicktips #plab2uk #medicalstudent #ukmedic #osce #mrcppaces #rcem #medicaltraining
