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.
