After all, there are still a few months left before the clinical internship ends.
Perhaps it is for this reason that people who have already shed a layer of skin after a year of grueling pace are now starting to regain their enthusiasm.
Especially Takagi, who couldn't wait to cheer right there in the hospital because she was thinking about the end of her clinical internship.
From April to August, it's only a four-month period.
OSCE was also reviewed in the medical department in mid-August.
They went in one by one, and then began a simulated consultation. The senior doctors from the medical department would watch from the front and make an assessment.
Basically, it's just a formality. Why are the big questions passed so easily? It's similar to a university interview.
The OSCE results are available in September, which also marks the end of the clinical internship.
The clinical internship will be held after the start of the semester in September.
At that time, with the notification that OSCE had been approved, Aki Tomoya and his group finally finished their clinical internships at the university's medical school.
"Ugh, finally I can sleep in!"
After finishing his clinical internship in mid-September and receiving his OSCE pass notification, Aki Tomoya cheered as he returned to his apartment.
During clinical internships, there are indeed days off, but the opportunities to truly sleep in are very limited.
Even on his days off, if he gets a phone call asking him to go to the hospital, he has no choice but to go.
"So, your clinical internship lasted a total of one year and five months, right?"
A pair of hands cupped Aki Tomoya's face from above. He was lying on the tatami mat, his head resting on his lover's lap.
From April of last year to September of this year, it's roughly this period.
Feeling the touch and warmth of Sayaka Kudo's hands, Tomoya Aki squinted his eyes in enjoyment.
"Yeah, five months in a year, it felt like I was about to ascend to heaven..."
Aki Tomoya said exaggeratedly.
"Tsk, is it really as exaggerated as you say?"
Sayaka Kudo asked with a smile, then gently poked his cheek with her finger.
Aki Tomoya smiled without saying a word.
It's not really an exaggeration; I was indeed exhausted at the beginning.
However, after a year and five months of clinical internship, he adapted to the pace of the university hospital, and was mentally prepared for becoming a visiting doctor later.
"After that, I need to start preparing for the medical licensing exam. What do you think will happen if I don't do well on the exam?"
The application materials for the medical licensing exam have already been prepared and submitted by the Medical School to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.
There are still six months until the medical licensing exam.
This is what is meant by starting preparations six months in advance after the clinical internship ends; in fact, strictly speaking, there are only six months left to prepare.
Once you pass CBT and OSCE, only the medical license remains as the final hurdle.
"Then I'll take care of you!"
Sayaka Kudo said with great spirit that if she weren't still giving Tomoya Aki a lap pillow, she would definitely stand up with her hands on her hips right now, which would make her even more imposing.
Upon hearing this, Aki Tomoya burst out laughing.
He glanced at Sayaka Kudo, then shook his head and sighed, "If you were really a rich woman, I guess you could drop out of school right now."
"Huh? You actually want to find a rich woman to support you?!"
She feigned anger, as if she had misjudged Aki Tomoya.
The latter touched his nose guiltily, then closed his eyes and continued to enjoy his lover's lap pillow.
Aki Tomoya did want to find a rich woman, but unfortunately he fell for Kudo Sayaka.
"Ugh!"
What's the meaning behind your sigh?
"I'm not sighing, I'm exclaiming! I'm so happy!"
Chapter 411 Money
The atmosphere at the university is much more relaxed than at the hospital, where the strict hierarchical system can be suffocating.
Most importantly, there's a lot to do, and it's hard work.
Back at school, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, I still need to prepare for the national medical practitioner qualification exam, so I can't completely relax.
The unified examination arranged by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare is held once before the clinical internship, and only those who pass it can enter the clinical internship.
Then came the CBT, which was also a major exam, and I've already passed it.
The most important thing for the remaining six months is to prepare for the National Medical Licensing Examination next February.
"Where do you plan to go for your medical training?"
Takagi asked a rather important question.
After passing the medical qualification exam, there is a further medical training period.
The process of medical training begins with choosing a direction, and at the end, the specific department is officially selected.
At that time, it will be similar to the residency rotation after graduating from medical school in China.
Similar to clinical internships, trainees do not bear clinical responsibility, but hospitals will gradually give them more autonomy and provide training, allowing them to directly engage in medical practice and begin performing some simple diagnoses and treatments, thus training them to be doctors in the true sense.
This usually takes two years, but can sometimes take up to five years.
"Takagi-kun, I suggest you apply to your own hospital for a medical training program."
At this moment, Aki Tomoya gave Takagi a suggestion.
Previously, medical trainees were trained in designated university hospitals, but after the policy was relaxed, qualified private hospitals can also accept medical trainees.
Therefore, if Takagi wanted to, he could go back to work as a trainee doctor, provided his family's hospital was qualified.
But after hearing what Aki Tomoya said, Takagi's face darkened.
"I'm not that pathetic!"
Takagi retorted somewhat agitatedly.
He ran back to his own hospital to become a visiting doctor?
It does sound good. He can go back to Kyoto as a trainee doctor at his own hospital. Then let's see who dares to mess with him.
"My hospital doesn't have a neurosurgery department. You're making me do a rotation in the hospital, are you expecting me to just take over my dad's position?!"
Hey!
This is the key point: although his hospital is qualified to accept training applications from medical students, it does not have the neurosurgery department that he aspires to work in.
After completing his residency rotations, he'll be trained as a specialist. Does he expect to just become a vice president and have some fun?
"Now I'm asking you what your thoughts are. Anyway, it doesn't necessarily have to be at Dongda Hospital. We can all go together!"
Their medical training doesn't have to be done at the University of Tokyo Hospital; they can choose to go to other hospitals. This has both advantages and disadvantages.
Being a resident physician in a university hospital where mistakes are not tolerated is not an easy job.
But after two years of getting to know each other, we can become one of our own much faster.
Going out to work as a medical resident, for example in a private hospital, offers a relatively relaxed environment and decent pay, which is quite a good option.
After becoming a resident physician, I started receiving a salary.
The baseline for national and public university hospitals is 300,000 yen, and the minimum cannot exceed this standard. Most of them are also between 300,000 and 400,000 yen.
If you work as a resident doctor at the University of Tokyo Hospital, you'll earn 400,000 yen a month.
Of course, other subsidies are separate, and you have to declare and pay taxes yourself, whether you are in a public or private university hospital.
"As for me, I'll go to the affiliated medical university in the north of the city, and then see if I can come back."
Majima then said that he had already decided where to go for his medical training: the affiliated hospital of his father's hospital, Johoku Medical University, and he would return after completing his training.
"I really envy you. I also want to go out and work as a resident physician in a private hospital, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to come back later."
Aki Tomoya glanced at Mashima with envy.
Generally speaking, after completing the two-year medical residency, the next step is specialist training, where the residency is held and the residency is then maintained.
However, for someone like Tomoya Aki who wants to advance in a university hospital, it would be best to stay in the university hospital from the very beginning of his medical training.
Because after completing my medical training at a private hospital and then returning to a university hospital to become a specialist, it's uncertain how long it will take to train someone else and become one of our own.
Most importantly, some of the procedures are difficult to handle. The two-year medical training program is a narrow definition; a proper medical training program actually requires several more years of specialist training.
After the initial two years, you generally stay there. Although you can indeed return to the university hospital, the key is whether your application will be approved.
Can I go back to the university hospital?
"Hey, you're going to a private hospital? What were you thinking?"
