To access to traineeship, students must participate in the Professionalising Laboratories (LP) and the Professionalising and in-depth Activities (APA) with mandatory frequency since these supplementary activities allow the student to acquire specific skills and competences in a protected and simulated situation, preparing it for clinical situations. that will experience on the field.
Furthermore, the student must acquire theoretical and practical knowledge in the characterizing disciplines foreseen by the 2nd year of the course (obstetric assistance at delivery, obstetric-gynecological assistance, fundamentals of surgical assistance, post-natal assistance, neonatal assistance).
At the end of each traineeship experience, the student receives a formative assessment by the intern assistant. Specifically, an evaluation is expressed on the achievement of the training objectives through evaluation sheets present in the internship booklet.
An assessment is made on the student's profile regarding behavior and transversal skills (communication and relational skills, collaboration and work organization skills, motivation and self-assessment skills); in addition, an assessment is made on the achievement of general and specific technical-operational skills differentiated on the basis of traineeship. In both cases, for each item indicated in the evaluation form, the trainee assistant must express a judgment in tenths (excellent: 10; distinguished: 9; good: 8; fair: 7; sufficient: 6; insufficient: <6 ) and then the mathematical average is calculated to obtain the final score.
The final professional traineeship exam 2 consists of a certification assessment that ascertains the levels reached by the student in the development of the expected professional skills. This assessment, expressed in thirtieths, is the summary that aggregates both the formative assessments gradually documented during the course year by the interns and the level of performance demonstrated at the internship exam. The exam consists of simulations on clinical cases.
Will be evaluated:
- the accuracy and precision in carrying out the assistance procedures
- clinical reasoning skills
- ability to use appropriate terminology
If the student does not achieve the objectives set for the traineeship and therefore the certification assessment ascertains an insufficient profit, the student is considered "repeating". The student will have to repeat the traineeship until the objectives are achieved and will not be able to attend the lessons of the third year of the course.
Professional traineeship represents the heart of professional preparation and is intended as a "space of experience" with educational purposes, indispensable for translating the theoretical knowledge acquired into professional behavior.
Professional traineeship is therefore a fundamental cornerstone in the construction of the professional profile of the student in Obstetrics, being aimed at developing:
• professional skills
• diagnostic reasoning
• critical thinking
• identity and belonging to the profession
Students will carry out the professional activity always under the guidance and supervision of an internship assistant
At the end of the second year professional traineeship, students will be able to:
1) describe the criteria for identifying low and medium / high risk pregnancy and childbirth
2) describe the main care paths in force in the various internships
3) provide assistance to the woman in the prodromal phase, in the dilating and expulsive period, during the secondment and in the postpartum
4) evaluate the condition of the newborn and assist him in the first hours after birth and in the first days of life
