Prerequisite knowledge and skills

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

At this stage in the training, placements constitute professional integration activities which students must devote themselves to on a full-time basis. The placements allow students to apply what they have learnt in a professional environment.
An electronic placement logbook (eLogBook) is used as a learning and progressive support tool.  The objective of this eLogBook is to encourage working autonomously, with a critical and curious mind.  Practical reflexive workshop are organized. 
Medical simulation sessions are carried out.
An online course associated is available on eCampus. It integrates the learning process in association with the teaching of psychiatry and a toolbox (psychiatry medical observation guide, link to an illustrated application of psychiatric semiology).

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)

Hybride learning

Recommended or required readings

Several proposed reference works made available to students.
The placement is centred around the theoretical aspects of psychiatry, medical psychology.
There is a toolbox on eCampus that includes the psychiatry system of reference, an illustrated semiology application (AESP), and a guide to medical observation in psychiatry

Read the assessment and deliberation conditions on the Faculty of Medicine's website.
A piece of personal work will be requested, which is directly associated with clinical practice and the cases encountered: either bibliographical research into the particular disease of a patient, or a more overall synthesis of a problem encountered during the placement.

Organisational remarks and main changes to the course

Students are required to justify any absences and inform the latter as soon as possible.
The students are required to participate in on-call roles. It is up to the specialist candidate who, for whatever reason, cannot assume his role of guard, to provide for his replacement.

  • please ensure you are dressed in a manner that will not offend patients and in compliance with the hospital's rules;
  • every student must have a white lab coat, their ID badge, and their stethoscope with them during their placements:
