CME NEWSLETTER
The idea of a CME newsletter is not unique in medical journalism and publications. It has been used by many hospitals and institutions to serve as educational and instructional material as well as to highlight the individual strengths and expertise of the respective medical staff and personnel.
In SNEC, continuing medical education and structured teaching for trainees and fellows form the backbone of our education programme. The CME newsletters are a compilation of CME lectures delivered by our Specialist Consultants and Senior Consultants as well as Special Invited Guest Speakers at the weekly Wednesday CME. As all lectures are audiotaped for record purposes, it was felt that such wealth of educational materials and information could be disseminated in printed form for the benefit of all practising ophthalmologists. This was successfully published on a quarterly basis from 2005.
Another unique idea was to have the Advanced Surgical Trainees (Registrars) who rotate through the subspecialties to transcribe the audio content into text. This serves a valuable teaching function and allows the young trainees not only to have an in-depth perspective of the current topics but also to be able to digest and summarise the topics in clear and concise articles. Hopefully, this enforces their skills in critical thinking.
We are grateful to the editorial team led by Dr Aliza Jap for their hard work in ensuring a consistent and high quality CME newsletter which is distributed to all ophthalmologists and hospitals not only in Singapore but also in the region and abroad.
