Understanding our Code of Ethics and Professionalism - Part 2
by UGME Year 1 Course Administrator 04 Dec '25

04 Dec '25

This message is sent on behalf of Dr. Merril Pauls, PF1 Course Lead: ________________________________ Hey everyone, As I discussed with all the small groups on Wednesday at the Code of Ethics and Professionalism tutorial - if your video has been received and I have had a chance to review it then there is no need for you to be at the tutorial session on Friday. So far this is true for three of the groups - P1 - Commitment to the well-being of the patient P5 - Commitment to Professional Excellence P9 - Commitment to Self-care and peer support. If there are other groups who submit overnight and I have the chance to review the videos tomorrow am then I will let them know that they also do not have to attend the scheduled tutorial. If your group has not submitted your video and/or it has not been reviewed by myself then my expectation is that I will see you at the tutorial. Remember that the actual due date for the video is Monday. (also remember that you have multiple mandatory sessions after the tutorial on Friday - so if you are finished the video this would be good study time but would not be good end of the day time) Dr. Merril Pauls CCFP(EM), MHSc Professor, Department of Emergency Medicine Co-director of Professionalism teaching - Max Rady College of Medicine, University of Manitoba Emergency Physician, Health Sciences Centre

02 Dec '25

Hi everyone, Your Med 1 physical exam FOSCE will test something simple that you have already learned. It will be FM based. You will need your stethoscope and pen light. It is something that you can do in 8 minutes. I cannot tell you exactly what it is as that will defeat the purpose of the "test".
