Interns Perception on Training in Rural Health Training Centres
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Medicine - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Abstract: Rural health training centres (RHTCs) and urban health training centres (UHTCs) are an integral part of every medical college in India.These centres provide community-based learning for undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) students as well as interns, build capacity of the staff and facilitate field research.Objective of internship is to train the medical graduates in hospital and community settings. Many students do not take internship period seriously but would rather study for their pre-PG examination. This decreases their interest in internship training especially in rural postings.Interns demands the excuse for rural posing for various reasons like PG preparation, safety issue, too far, no basic facilities etc. The poor physical infrastructure of rural centre is the main hurdle for avoiding the rural postings. The shortage of qualified doctors in many of the rural areas leads to unqualified quacks, which are a greater threat to the lives of the patients.To some extent AYUSH doctors are catering to the needs of rural population and delivering some health care facilities. Keywords: interns, perception, rural health training centres, training.
