Abstract:
Teaching hospitals play an increasingly important role in clinical training, and improvement of the education system is required. To effectively utilize limited human and material resources for clinical education and to enhance clinical education and medicine treatment throughout a region, cooperation between hospitals is essential. However, cooperation for clinical education training beyond prefectures or training hospitals cannot be said to be sufficient. The Kisogawa Medical Conference, a collaborative system of 5 training hospitals located around the Kiso River estuary, held medical lectures, hands–on seminars, and joint–hospital case conferences. Cooperation in medical education training and exchanges beyond prefectures and training hospitals is expected to lead to substantial improvements, not only in medical education training, but also in medical care throughout a region.
