Abstract:
A questionnaire survey of opinions about postgraduate clinical training was conducted among doctors who had graduated from Kochi Medical School. Completed questionnaires were returned by 121 doctors (46.5%). Many doctors chose hospitals before graduation to secure working positions rather than to receive actual training. About half of the doctors think that training of emergency medicine was poor at their clinical training hospitals. To encourage medical students to participate actively in postgraduate clinical training and to train efficiently, university hospitals and clinical training hospitals designated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare should cooperate with one another and organize training programs for emergency medicine.
