Farai Daniel Madzimbamuto [MBChB, MMed, FRCA, SAFRI Fellow]

Chairman
Department of Health Professions Education
Senior Lecturer
Department of Anaesthesia and Critical Care Medicine

Following on my MBChB (1985), in the days of Senior House officer rotations, I ended up in the Department of Anaesthesia, in 1988. The MMed programme in the department had recently started, and as measured by pass rate of the MMeds on the UK Fellowship, it was doing very well. I stayed. The training included a rotation in Birmingham and Stoke-on-Trent, in the UK. After my MMed (1991) I joined the department as lecturer (1993) and have been joined to it since in various degrees of elasticity. Currently I am Chair of the Department of Health Professions Education (HPE), but also still in Anaesthesia and Critical Care Medicine (ACCM). I have worked in UK and in Botswana, in clinical service and in training / teaching, so I have more than one window to look through. I took a fork in the road when I did the SAFRI [Southern Africa FAIMER Regional Institute] programme (2010). I will be writing a regular piece in the Bulletin of the Royal College of Anaesthetists.
 
Teaching has always been at the heart of my interests. I remember the best teachers (and worst) I ever had, even at primary school. How to make the education experience of our students and staff cut the same deep farrow today, that’s what we are about in HPE. Our department is new (2014), which in a way reflects the desire and effort the UZ has to keep moving. We run Faculty Development Workshops and have started an annual health educationist’s conference, to promote scholarship in the teaching and training of health professionals. We are also working on the MBChB curriculum review project of the College of Health Science. Much of my work now is related to education, whether as part of the College of Anaesthetists of East Central and Southern Africa [CANECSA], where I am Chair of the Education Committee or the Zimbabwe Anaesthetic Association [ZAA] where I am on the Education Committee.
