REQUIREMENTS TO PASS THE SUBJECT:

1. Minimum attendance at four seminars (SESP) scheduled in the Teaching Unit of Basic Medical Sciences (UDCMB, Bellaterra).
2. Minimum attendance at three laboratory practice sessions (PLAB) scheduled at the UDCMB (Bellaterra).
3. Compliance  of the three clinical stays (clinical care practice, PCA) in a Primary Care Center (CAP) with a qualification of apt.
4. Group delivery of three observation protocols (one for each PCA visit).
5. Participation in group work and oral defense.
6. Have a grade equal to or higher than 5 on the exam.

 

EVALUATION

The continuous evaluation of the subject Clinical Care Practice II will be based on:

a) Attendance and active participation in seminars and practical sessions:

Attendance at the five seminars (SESP) will generate a grade of 10. Failure to attend any of the first four seminars will generate a grade of 0. The absence from any of the seminars, even if justified, will be deducted from the attendance score.

Attendance at the fifth seminar is mandatory (group work is presented and evaluated).

Attendance at the four laboratory practice sessions (PLAB) will generate a grade of 10. Attendance at three of the four practices will generate a grade of 0.

During each visit to the CAP, each student will have a specific observation protocol to train the competencies proposed by the teachers in the previous sessions of SESP and PLAB and to be able to collect observations that will be useful to him/her later to work in small groups (fixed work teams of 5 people established within each internship group). The interlocutor of each team will have to deliver through the Virtual Campus each protocol worked in group (a total of three) inside the calendar of deliveries foreseen in the beginning of the subject in the second semester. These protocols are the subject of work during the PLAB. Students will have a script and assessment rubrics on the virtual campus. Each group protocol delivered in the established term (corresponding session of practices) will generate a note according to a scale of four categories: A (0); B (0,1); C (0,2) and D(0,3). If a protocol is not suitable, the teacher will require the group to repeat it and indicate the maximum grade that can be obtained in a second review. The members of each work team will have the same qualification. Students can consult the feedback on the work and through the Qualifications tool of the Virtual Campus.

Teachers may require students to explain in the classroom the cases observed and described in the individual protocols.

This part has a weight of 19% in the final mark of the subject that would be distributed as follows:

-          Seminars: 5%

-          Internships: 5%

-          Observation protocols: 9% (each protocol weighs 3%)

b) Examination:

The exam is a multiple-choice question test with five answer options (a single valid answer). A correction will be applied to discount random hits [Corrected Score = (hits- (errors / 4))] which will be transformed into a note that can range from 0 to 10.

The examination date will be the scheduled date according to the official calendar of the Faculty of Medicine.

The subject to be evaluated corresponds to all the theoretical and practical contents of the subject. The students will have study material on the Virtual Campus, which must be completed with the reference book of the subject (Introduction and chapters from 1 to 7; see section Specific bibliography) and with readings that are indicated in certain sessions.

The exam is considered passed with a grade of5 or higher.

After each exam, students will have a period of 24 hours to send, through the Virtual Campus, comments, or complaints about the questions, which will be analyzed by teachers. Students can consult their provisional grade through the Qualifications tool of the Virtual Campus. The revision of the evaluation will be carried out individually under the request of tutoring with the coordination of the subject.

This part has a weight of 50% in the final grade of the subject.

c) Elaboration of group work and oral defense of a clinical case and its community approach.

Students must carry out group work related to the seminars (SESP) held at the UDCMB and the stays at the CAP (PCA).

To carry out this activity, which starts from the first seminar, we will work according to the teams formed in the mentioned session.

Students will have a script and assessment rubric on the Virtual Campus. The members of each work team will have the same qualification.

This part has a weight of 31% in the final grade of the subject.

The work will be submitted to the designated space on the virtual campus and will later be presented as a group on the day of seminar 5. 

RECOVERY

Students who have not passed the exam (note 5), or have not taken, will be able to have another exam, if the first five requirements to pass the subject have been met.

Students who meet any of the following conditions may have another exam:

• Not having passed the final exam (minimum grade 5).
• Failure to take the final exam.
• Want to improve grade. In this case, the coordinator of the subject must be notified throgh a form that will be enabled with the call. In this case, the final grade will always be obtained considering the last exam.

The examination date will be the scheduled date according to the official calendar of the Faculty of Medicine.

FINAL NOTE OF THE SUBJECT

Final grade = (Attendance at the five SESPs * 0.05) + (Attendance at the four PLABs * 0.05) + (Observation protocols * 0.03 for each protocol) + (Examination grade*0.50) + (note Group work * 0.31).

 This formula will only be applied in the event that the requirements to achieve the subject have been met.

The final grade of students who have not passed the exam after the new test, will be:

1)      If the resulting grade after applying the formula to calculate the Final Grade is ≤ 4.7, that grade will be placed.

2)      If the resulting grade after applying the formula for calculating the Final Grade is> 4.7, the final grade will be 4.7.

Students who do not meet any of the following requirements will be assigned a rating of "not assessable":

1)      Minimum attendance at four SESPs

2)      Minimum attendance at three PLABs

3)      Completion of the three stays (PCA) in a CAP with apt qualification.

4)      Group delivery of three observation protocols.

5)      Carrying out group work and participating in oral defense.

6)      Carrying out the multiple-choice test.

The revision of the evaluation will be carried out individually under the request of tutoring with the coordination of the subject. 

Students who do not take both the theoretical and practical assessment tests will be considered ‘Not Assessable,’ losing their rights to enroll in the subject.

This subject does not provide the single assessment system.
