Unit Code: FMD900

Unit Name: Family Medicine IV

Description: FMD900 is the final year of the MMED – Family Medicine programme. Following on from FMD820 and FMD830, this course utilises the prior knowledge, skills and attitudes demonstrated, to enable the candidate to function as a trainee family medicine specialist. This year contains both research and clinical components. The research component is outlined in MED812. As candidates have already passed their exit exams at this point, a broader range of clinical settings may be appropriate for this course. Candidates may undertake an international placement, for example in Australia or New Zealand. In circumstances where the candidates is planned to move to a remote setting following graduation, the candidate may spend part of this year in non-primary care settings, in order to up-skill in preparation. Such non-primary care placements will be at the discretion of the employer and in consultation with the School.
