Cornish CASCs workbook. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2009, Pages: 156
Cornish CASCs is a workbook providing 29 pairs of
mock consultations, similar to those used in the
Clinical Assessment of Skills and Competencies
(CASC) MRCPsych exit exam of the Royal College of
Psychiatrists, UK.
The scenarios address various aspects of psychiatry
in the Royal College syllabus, that are common in
day to day practice, and in the exams.
The prime aim is to help psychiatry postgraduate
trainees test their competences for the main
exams. It is also a resource for other
professionals, including GPs, to upgrade their
understanding of common psychiatric practice.
It enables candidates to test their
integration of theoretical knowledge with practical
skills. Every scenario is unique, and has a marking
scheme, plus guidance on best practice.
This is a book for trainees by trainees. All authors
have recently taken and passed their MRCPsych exams
and so understand these requirements thoroughly. The
book has been reviewed by a college examiner for
consistency with the college CASC structure.
This book will help candidates develop their
confidence and skills for the exam, and their
professional practice in psychiatry.
