Abstract:
1)We instituted the “CHANGE Nagasaki University Hospital” project to improve both management and medical education and to boost the number of physicians recruited to this hospital.
2)We first identified the physicians’ problems and complaints via a questionnaire. Next, focusing on the most common complaints, we reduced secondary duties and methodically improved the educational environment by employing the a– b–c–d–strategy, which is based on the principles of medical education.
3)As a result, both, the hospital’s economic growth and the recruitment figures for resident physicians have increased continuously over the past 4 years.
