Instructions

You are a medical student on placement in general practice. Your next patient is Meera Patel, 26, who is pregnant and worried about her drinking.

  1. Take a focused history

  2. Counsel her about her drinking

  • You do not need to summarise to the examiner or examine the patient

ChoiceHub writes these stations itself, from the ground up, across a wide range of clinical topics. They are not official exam material, and no university has written, reviewed or endorsed them. “Recommended for” only suggests the year and exam format a station suits.
