EXCELLENCE IN PEOPLE


Mr Wai Yoong undertook a visit to Jordan and Palestine as part of the Sims Black Travelling Professorship in May 2015. Due to the lack of basic practical skills (BPS) and postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) management training, as well as a lack of structured training in specific areas, Wai was asked to assist with the standard of postgraduate education in Jordan and Palestine. This included a critical evaluation of the residency programme, an assessment of the abilities of the residents and their working environment, and an assessment of the referral system and work assignments. Together with his two consultant colleagues, Mr Mahantesh Karoshi (Barnet General Hospital) and Mr Wasim Lodhi (North Middlesex University Hospital), Wai delivered five days of intense training incorporating elements of the RCOG’s BPS course and hands-on PPH management workshops as well as CTG training. Commenting on his visit, Wai said: “It has been an honour to receive the Sims Black Travelling Professorship. This award means being given the opportunity to strengthen and develop ties between the two countries and the RCOG, especially since many Jordanian and Palestinian trainees have expressed interest in doing the MRCOG exams and spending time training in the UK. Besides covering aspects of BPS, PPH and CTG training, we were also able to run a short interactive workshop on training opportunities in the UK.”
