TASKS TO BE PERFORMED DURING PART 3
There are 2 types of tasks:
1. Simulated patient/colleague tasks:
This involves interacting of the candidate with the role player. The actor will know all the relevant details pertaining to the case and will have some scripted questions to prompt if needed.
2. Structured discussion tasks:
This involves interaction of the candidate directly with a clinical examiner. The examiner will have detailed instructions about the task and a list of questions that they can use to prompt the candidate or to move the task on to ensure that the candidate does not run out of time. The examiner may give the candidate further information as the scenario evolves and then ask further questions.
