The Diploma in Occupational Medicine (DOccMed) is undertaken by approximately 600 GPs as well as 100 occupational medicine trainees per year. This number is expected to increase as there is a growing trend for GP practices to offer occupational medicine services to local employers. The Diploma consists of two exams: the first contains a minimum of 50 EMQ/SBA questions, usually approximately 70. The second is a viva based on a portfolio of work undertaken by the trainee. The syllabus consists of general practice, general medicine, ethics and employment law, toxicology, industry specifics and public health. Questions and Answers for the Diploma in Occupational Medicine is the first book written specifically for this examination. Written by a doctor who recently passed the diploma and checked for accuracy by a consultant in Occupational Medicine, the book starts with introductory chapters offering practical advice for new candidates followed by over 150 'Best Fit' questions, divided into subject areas, to closely match the format of the exam itself. These are followed by explanations of the answers to help readers improve understanding. The book is broken down into the core subject areas on which you will be tested: * Ethics and law * Effects of work on health * Principles of occupational health * Clinical occupation health * Health and safety at work
