Impact of Practical Skill Demonstration on Internship Training During Community Medicine Posting- A Pilot Study
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4
Abstract
Internship training is the backbone of undergraduate skill acquisition. Due to the lack of uniformity and a structured internship programme the competencies and skills acquired under graduation are lost during internship. In an attempt to formulate a broad-based structured internship programme this Pilot study will attempt to study the issue of skill refinement and its assessment. The Study was an ethical committee approved client consented case control study which enrolled interns posted in Rural Health Training Centre.4 basic competencies were considered. There was significant improvement in practical skills whereas the difference in gain in theoretical knowledge of test and skills remained non-significant.
