Medicine students experience the role of an RG Obstetrician in Murray Bridge 🩺

Twenty-two medicine students from University and University travelled to Murray Bridge on 28 February to immerse themselves in learning and working alongside experienced RG Obstetricians and rural midwives for the two-day R2R Medicine RG Obstetrics Clinical Experience.

Thank you to Dr Mark Herrmann, Dr Caitlyn Skinner, Dr Millie Williams and Dr Dianne Carr, who demonstrated the multi-disciplinary obstetrics environment supported by local and midwives, Tanya, Kelly, Bronwyn and Lou 🫶

Students shared that the experience strengthened their understanding of the role of RG Obstetricians and the valuable support offered by regional midwives. Several students commented that the exposure has encouraged them to considered future rural training.

We look forward to the R2R Medicine RG Anaesthetics Clinical Experience coming up 28-29 March in the Barossa Valley.

R2R Clinical Experiences offer final year South Australian medicine students the opportunity to experience what a rural career and lifestyle can be like.
