Hampshire and Isle of Wight NHS Foundation Trust aims to run 2-3 (in person) AHD’s per year. The service can accommodate learners on their DCSRH and Letter of Competency journey in order to complete the clinical components of these qualifications. This assessment is a mandatory part of the Diploma.
The AHD is designed to assess the DCSRH candidates’ clinical knowledge and its application through both written and clinical assessments. The AHD consists of 2 Parts detailed below.
We recommend that the AHD is undertaken towards the end of a candidate’s journey when they have completed a majority, if not all of the learning and other assessments.
Overview:
Part 1 – Written paper, 60 minutes
This written paper consists of 6 tasks, based on topics taken from the curriculum. Tasks will include labelling diagrams, interpreting data, short answer, multiple choice and single best answer questions etc.
Each of the 6 sections is marked out of 10 marks (60 in total).
