A mini-CEX is an observed interaction between you and a patient assessed by a senior clinician in a non-primary care post. It focuses on communication, clinical skills and attitudes and enables feedback in real time.
You can ask your clinical supervisor, consultants, staff grades, or registrars to complete this assessment for you. Ideally each mini CEX should be with a different observer and you should aim to cover a range of different problems with your mini CEX’s throughout the year. The observations should be recorded in your eportfolio by the assessor.
