Dr Sara Hamza is using her lived experience on the OET-PLAB pathway to support current LRDP members, and in doing so, we hope she is also gaining valuable teaching experience and feedback for her portfolio. An introduction to medical education, with the support of LRDP's experienced Clinical Leads, now forms an important part of our offer to members.

It was wonderful to catch up with LRDP member Dr Mo Alabd this Refugee Week. Dr Alabd is now a Speciality Doctor in Lincolnshire and a member of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, having also passed the postgraduate exams . We hope that Mo's achievements can give hope to other doctors in the UK who have been displaced from their home countries.

LRDP is proud to have played a role in his journey.

On 13th June, LRDP's Ruth Ingamells was delighted to attend the launch event of Nottingham Refugee Week, which has been organised in collaboration with Nottingham & Nottinghamshire Refugee Forum to mark Refugee Week It was a well-attended event showcasing stalls from around the world, amazing food, activities and music and it was lovely to meet so many people, both from projects who support and those from the refugee communities. Chair of Nottingham Refugee Week, James Rowland, said “We are delighted to have so many people come and join us today at the launch event for a very special week ahead. There are lots of events happening around Nottingham this week, finishing with the closing party at Nottingham Contemporary on 22nd June from 4-8pm. Everyone would be very welcome to join us”.

LRDP's Clinical Team were at Lincoln County Hospital last week to learn more about integrating SimMan into teaching sessions. SimMan is an adult patient simulator which is commonly used in healthcare training in the UK especially for training of emergency cases. It is connected to a monitor so you can see its vital signs and ECG, and will react to medical interventions and treatments. LRDP members can practise using the mannikin to prepare for the GMC's final clinical exam, PLAB 2.
Huge thanks as always to the fantastic postgraduate education department at United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust - ULHT - for this excellent opportunity and for making LRDP's staff and members so welcome.
