During this period, the doctors rotate through different departments and gain hands-on experience in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients under the guidance of senior doctors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 50px; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">Overview of Housemanship Training in Malaysia<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">Housemanship training in Malaysia is a crucial component of the medical education system. The training is required pursuant to the Medical Act 1971, which stipulates that every medical graduate must undergo a one-year minimum housemanship training period. The purpose of this training is to ensure that medical graduates acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to become competent medical practitioners in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;412,413&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_no&#8221; autoplay=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">During their training, housemen will be required to complete six postings in five major departments, which include medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and orthopedics and one alternative posting in either anesthesiology, emergency medicine, psychiatry, or primary care. This ensures that housemen are exposed to various specialties, which improves their clinical skills and knowledge.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">Assessments are an integral part of the housemanship training, and housemen will be assessed according to a structured guideline and curriculum in each posting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">The assessments are to ensure that housemen acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to become competent medical practitioners. The assessments also aid in identifying areas where housemen need additional training to improve their knowledge and skills. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; vertical-align: baseline;\">The housemanship training programme in Malaysia is rigorous and demanding. It requires a high level of commitment, dedication, and hard work from trainees. However, the program offers numerous benefits, including hands-on experience, exposure to a wide range of medical specialties, and the opportunity to learn from experienced medical practitioners.<br \/>\n<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; full_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; parallax=&#8221;content-moving-fade&#8221; parallax_image=&#8221;408&#8243;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Malaysia Housemanship Training Programme&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff&#8221; google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Ubuntu%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Excellence in Training, Excellence in Care.&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:center|color:%23dd9f42&#8243; google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Dosis%3A200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800|font_style:800%20bold%20regular%3A800%3Anormal&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Welcome!
