Summer studentship
presentations
By BOP Clinical School Business Leader,
Sarah Strong.
Eight of the fifteen summer students presented
at a Grand Round held on 26 January 2016 on
the projects listed below. Their presentations
created some robust discussion and will
lead to further analysis and improvements.
The Grand Round was shared via videoconference with staff at Whakatāne and also
videoed. The video of the presentations will
be made available on OnePlace from the
beginning of March: http://oneplace/Content/

Some students undertook more than one project once they had completed their first and some students were also supervised by more than
one clinician. The guidance and supervision is much appreciated, and the experience provides students with a good appreciation of the
hospital environment. Other projects our summer students completed:
