Final year CNSP residents need to qualify OSCE before taking final and national board examination. OSCE consists of a series of stations in which examinee will encounter clinical vignettes that they need to solve comprehensively in front of clinical examiners. The test examines examinee’s clinical skills and knowledge in diagnosis of medical and nutritional problems, in nutritional intervention and counseling based on clinical scenario/vignette. The test is designed as such that it closely resembles real clinical cases which may involve trained actors as patients in specifically designed examination rooms.
At this occasion (6th of October 2021), there were 6 residents took part as examinees and they went through 10 stations with different clinical scenarios/vignettes. In each stations examinees spent 20 minutes to complete the vignette in front of clinical examiners. All clinical examiners are clinically qualified specialists who are involved in the education and training process of residents over the years.
