| Type of Study |
Participating in Medical Research Studies is a excellent way to help fund university education, or just save for the things you want in life, perhaps a holiday? Many research volunteers are in full time or part time jobs, and contribute . Whether you are in retail, customer service or any other career, why not consider helping researchers find new treatments, and in developing existing treatments.
Clinical Trials volunteers are needed right throughout the UK to participate in Medical Research Studies. These Clinical Trials, Medical Trials or Drug Trials are strictly governed by Authorities and Overseen by Ethics Committees, to ensure the up-most safety of research volunteers.
BioTrax is the leading Clinical Trials Listing Service on the Internet, and lists all known Medical Research activities, which includes all the non-Invasive research activities we know of, throughout the US. This amounts to 100 | | Duration | I day to A Month | | Reimbursement | Up to $200 a Day | | Notes | YOU TUBE ABOVE - HOW ABOUT A LITTLE JAZZ - A LITTLE STYLE - HARRY CONNICK PRESENTING - ALL OF ME

Study 386 :STANDARDIZED PATIENT PROGRAM Kentucky
|
|
|
|
| Type of Study | The Standardized Patient Program employs highly trained educators to portray patients with a wide variety of symptoms and illnesses.
| | Aim of Study | Standardized Patients (SPs) will work with students from most clinical teaching programs in the University of Louisville Health Sciences Center, including: Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Dentistry.
Standardized Patients do more than just "act out" cases-
SPs are trained in varied methods of feedback which are customized for each student
SPs are trained in case-specific evaluation of students, including interpersonal skills, physical exam skills, and history taking skills.
SPs help students to identify areas for improvement, and to discover and emphasize their strengths.
SPs can communicate with staff and faculty when students demonstrate a need for further intervention.
SPs receive ongoing training to help them strengthen their case portrayal and evaluation skills.
Most SPs are trained in multiple cases, benefiting many different programs.
SPs come from widely varied backgrounds. Many SPs have advanced degrees in business, language, psychology, fine arts, and education.
| | Area | Louisville,Kentucky,United States | | Duration | FLEXIBLE | | Reimbursement | Standardized Patients are temporary part-time employees and are paid through the payroll system . | | Other Info | What is a Standardized Patient?
A Simulated/Standardized Patient (SP) is a person who has been coached to accurately and consistently recreate the history, personality, physical findings, and emotional structure and response pattern of an actual patient at a particular point in time.
Standardized Patients are used in the training and evaluation of health care professionals including: medical, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, and public health students. As a Standardized Patient, you will be interviewed and examined, just as you would by your family doctor, by male and female health-care students. In the patient role, you may see several (4-12) students on a one-to-one basis during an evaluation session or there may be a group of students (4-7) working with you in a controlled teaching session.
How will I know what to say when the students interview me?
You will be given a "patient case" or script detailing the current medical problem, past medical history, family and social situation, and emotional state you will need to portray. You will learn to appear as the patient by using specific body language, movement, and responses to physical examination. You will also be trained to look for specific student responses and skills, to record them, and to give feedback to the student on their performance.
Will the students know we aren't real patients?
All students are aware that they are seeing SPs, and are asked to perform histories and physical examinations just as they would with real patients.
Will I have to grade the student?
No. You will be asked to complete a checklist as a record of the encounter. Some programs also require SPs to provide both positive and constructive feedback to the students based on their performance.
What type of physical examination will be done?
Students will perform focused physical examinations based on the patient case. These examinations may include: listening to heart and lungs with a stethoscope; pressing on your abdomen, neck face and limbs to assess tenderness; using a scope to look in your ears, eyes, nose and throat; taking your pulse and blood pressure; checking muscle strength, reflexes, range of motion, and gait. Breast, pelvic, genital or rectal examinations will not be performed. Invasive procedures (blood draw, X-ray, throat cultures) will not be performed.
Will I have to remove my clothing?
SPs are generally required to wear hospital gowns during the sessions. You may always wear underclothing under the gowns, and if appropriate to the patient case, shorts or sweatpants.
Will I need to know a lot about medicine?
No. Your patient case will contain all the information you need for portrayal and feedback.
Is my previous health history important?
It might be. Each patient is matched with a case - an SP who has had an appendectomy could not portray a patient with appendicitis. However, a surgical scar might not matter in a case about a headache, or wrist pain. Your answers on the medical database questionnaire will help match you to appropriate patient cases.
How are Standardized Patients selected?
As an SP, you will use a wide range of skills. You will need to role-play and work with a varied group of people. It is important that you are comfortable with your body and letting others touch and examine you. Strong written and verbal communication skills are required. Punctuality, reliability and flexibility are imperative.
Do I need to be an actor?
No, although many actors work as SPs. The focus is on providing the student with an educational opportunity, not on performance or dramatic interpretation. Playing a patient case is extremely repetitive, as exactly the same simulation must be done for every student encounter in a specific session.
However, many actors and non-actors find this work rewarding. You will contribute to the education of future health care providers, and many students are extremely grateful for the opportunity to work with SPs and receive feedback on their skills. SPs often become more comfortable with their own medical issues while working in the program.
How often would I work?
The work is temporary, part-time, and seasonal. SP sessions are scheduled according to student needs and program requirements. Some SPs will work each morning for a month, others may work every other week, still others may work three full days in a month. SPs who perform satisfactorily are given first preference for future work, depending on need and case requirements.
What else should I know about being a Standardized Patient?
This job is not easy and it is not for everybody. It requires intense concentration while being interviewed and examined. You must be able to respond exactly as the real patient would. You must be able to maintain not only the patients's character but also simulate their physical condition during an encounter. When the encounter is over you must recall the student's performance and record it on a checklist. You may also be required to provide verbal feedback directly to the student. You will repeat these tasks many times in succession without change. Being an SP takes energy, memorization, discipline, concentration, excellent communication skills and a high level of comfort with your own health.
I'm interested in becoming a Standardized Patient. What should I do next?
Complete the attached application and information forms and send them to the address below. If you wish, please attach a resume and/or photo. We will contact you to arrange an interview dependent on program needs. Your application will be kept on file, and you may contact us at any time to update information.
