Recruitment of Honorary Family Practice Teachers

Recruitment of Honorary Family Practice Teachers

 

Our Department is actively recruiting family practice teachers who are prepared to take students into their practices for teaching purposes.  During the family medicine junior clerkship each student is required to spend some time attached to a general practitioner in the community.  These attachments are on a one-to-one basis, and are scheduled at regular intervals throughout the academic year.  Each student will be attached to the family practice (FP) teacher for 2 half-day sessions during a 9 week period.

Most doctors find that teaching in their practices is a rewarding experience, and the satisfaction gained often more than compensates for the minor disruption to the practice. Those who volunteer to teach will be given an honorary academic appointment at the University of Hong Kong. Appropriate CME and CPD accreditation will be given by the Quality Assurance and Accreditation Committee of the H.K.C.F.P. towards the award of the Certificate of Quality Assurance. Our honorary staff are entitled to use our University facilities including the library, computer access to the Internet and the sports club.

Fellows and members of the Hong Kong College of Family Physicians may wish to contribute to undergraduate medical education in this way, and enquiries from other doctors would also be welcome.

To apply for this great opportunity, please complete the Application Form and return it with a copy of your curriculum vitae to our office.
