Abstract

This book serves as a comprehensive resource for all candidates preparing for the Clinical Assessment of Skills and Competencies (CASC) examination, component of the MRCPsych exams for Psychiatrists. It includes over a 100 scenarios encompassing the breadth of commonly encountered clinical assessments that could feature as CASC exam stations. Key points, buzz words and phrases that are relevant to the station are clearly highlighted. The focus in each station is on communication and maintaining a structured approach which is essential to ensure every aspect relevant to a station is covered in the 7 minutes and adheres to the CASC exam blueprint of the RCPsych. This volume is an essential tool for all core trainees in Psychiatry, general practice trainees, specialty/staff grade doctors in Psychiatry and international medical graduates preparing for the CASC exam.
