Second term

Life has been pretty hectic the last few months which is why I haven't updated this site for ages! The end of last term was really interesting as we learnt about clinical techniques for example anaesthesia, radiology, wound management and diagnostic tests. It finally seemed relevant to what we will actually be doing on work experience placements and when we graduate.
This term, we have started our Systems modules, where we work through different areas of the body learning about disease and treatments. The first module is the Alimentary system which lasts for 5 weeks (one of the longest). We spent a day yesterday learning about animal dentistry, which made everyone want to go home and check their animals' teeth!
