Information on the realisation of practical clinical classes

18.03.2020

Due to many question regarding the realisation of practical clinical teaching curriculum during the 6th year of the medical studies we inform that in the light of the current epidemiological situation and its dramatic shifts practical classes cannot be conducted remotely.

Practical clinical teaching during the 6th studies of studies is conducted in clinics or hospital wards of healthcare entities. Therefore, due to the suspension of all didactic activity classes of such profile cannot be realised neither in their initial (pre-epidemic) form nor remotely. We are most aware of the fact that this may generate many issues in regards to the completion of medical studies in their designated time. However, without proper changes in the current Polish legislation we are all in a stalemate. We will provide proper information on the existing problem to the Ministry of Health. Unfortunately, we believe that the same problem may apply to the medicine-dentistry programme as well as to the nursing and obstetrics programmes.
