This practical study guide supports candidates preparing for the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) Diploma in Child Health (DCH), an examination that recognises a doctor’s knowledge, skills, and experience in child health. Written by an RCPCH member and senior DCH examiner, the book provides structured, exam-focused guidance to help postgraduate trainees develop confidence and competence. Volume 1 addresses four core examination stations using realistic, scenario-based learning that mirrors the format of the DCH and supports continued professional development in paediatric practice.

Key Features
  • Exam-Focused Content : Covers four of the seven DCH examination stations—Communication, Clinical Assessment, Focused History and Management, and Child Development.
  • Scenario-Based Learning: Includes role-play scenarios based on common paediatric conditions and clinical situations, suitable for individual study or group practice.
  • Step-by-Step Guidance: Each scenario outlines tasks for the trainee, background information for the role player or examiner, and key points assessed in the exam.
  • Clinical Context: Provides additional explanatory information on each condition to reinforce learning and understanding.
  • Dual Exam Utility: Relevant not only for DCH candidates but also for trainees preparing for the MRCPCH entrance examinations, as the stations overlap.
  • Targeted Audience: Ideal for GPs, GP vocational trainees, staff grade doctors, senior house officers in paediatrics, and trainees in allied specialties.
