Themed Case Discussion (TCD) Facilitators

Themed case discussion (TCD) sessions are run by experienced clinicians during the Year 4 Speciality blocks (post FY2 only) and for MB ChB Year 3 students on a Friday at one of the clinical education campus sites (Foundation Doctors welcome to assist Year 3 sessions):

• Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, Oxford Road Campus
• Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, Wythenshawe
• Salford Royal Foundation Trust
• Lancashire Teaching Hospital Trust – Preston

As a tutor for these sessions, you would need to be familiar with the content of the session which is prepared for you and available in advance, and also be familiar with the material which the students will have worked through before they come to the session, in order that you might promote their higher order thinking.

If you are interested in finding out more, please contact us at mbchb.prime@manchester.ac.uk, including details of the role you are interested in and your preferred location, and we will put you in touch with the right person.

Before teaching or assisting in our TCD sessions, please ensure that you have attended our PRiME Core workshop Teaching Themed Case Discussion (TCD).
