Singaraja –Reported from the Undiksha websiteundiksha.ac.id , The Faculty of Medicine, Ganesha Education University (Undiksha) continues to make efforts to create quality clinical or COAS education. One way is to increase the knowledge of young doctors through public lectures, Wednesday (9/3/2022).
The public lecture which took place in the Rectorate’s Ganesha III Room presented guest speakers, Dr. Putu Moda Arsana, Sp.PD-KEMD., FINASIM. He, who serves as Chair of the Indonesian Medical Council, presented the material “Clinical Learning Process in Teaching Hospitals”. He explained that in clinical education, students directly learn about patients. They must master the clinical process, master the physical examination,
master additional examinations, master diseases that may be related to the patient, master diagnostic criteria, and others, including mastering communication with patients. This education is very different from academic education which is centered on books. “Academic education is learning from books, clinical education is learning from patients,” he explained.
He emphasized that students must master a series of clinical processes so that later they can become doctors who are ready to go into society and be able to directly treat patients. On this occasion, Moda Arsana also emphasized that in implementing clinical education, the synergy of campuses, hospitals, and students is very important. “Students are the learners or actors, then the campus is the guide, then the hospital provides the facilities and mentors. Hospital supervisors must synergize their in-line knowledge with what is taught at the beginning. “If it’s not inline, students will be confused,” he said.
This resource person from Banyuatis Village, Banjar District, Buleleng Regency also hopes that the Undiksha medical faculty and others can produce competent doctors. Competence is not only limited to local but also global, namely being able to compete with doctors in other countries. “Age may be young, but the enthusiasm for teaching good competencies must continue to be maintained,” he added.
Deputy Dean II FK Undiksha, Dr. Dr. Ni Luh Kadek Alit Arsani, S.Ked., M.Biomed., explained that clinical education took place at the Main Teaching Hospital of the Faculty of Medicine, Undiksha, namely the Buleleng Regional General Hospital (RSUD). This education was attended by 44 students who were the first generation. He hopes that this public lecture can increase students’ understanding. “We hope that what is conveyed today can be understood by students. “This is important for professional education,” she said.
This event was also attended by Deputy Dean I FK Undiksha, dr. I Putu Suriyasa, M.S., PKK., SP.OK., online. He also opened the event. Apart from that, the Head of the Buleleng District Health Service and the Director of Buleleng Regional Hospital were also present. (hms)
