My guest in this episode is Dr Jeram Hyde, an intensivist
in Newcastle with a special interest in teaching non-technical
skills.
Jeram is the force behind an annual Trainee Education Day, run
by the John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle, and which I attended this
year. Jeram has been building this meeting over recent years from a
single ICU’s annual meeting to educate their trainees on
non-clinical topics like work-life balance, communication and
civility to one that is now sponsored by the CICM and attracts
people from all over the state of New South Wales.
Apart from working as an intensivist, Jeram holds masters
degrees in business and human resource management. In his free time
he enjoys paragliding and rock climbing.
We recorded this interview whilst I was in Newcastle and we
talked about the philosophy of the Education Day, the benefits of
teaching these non-technical skills, and how the meeting has grown.
Jeram also talked about the fear that prompted his choice to become
an ICU doctor, what he values in fostering team culture, and what
he looks for when conducting interviews for ICU trainee roles.
Thank you for listening to my conversation with Dr Jeram
Hyde.
