So stop complaining because you don't have a job.. make use of the opportunities around you in your favor. Do something. The pay might not be fantastic as expected but dont give up trying. There are so many network marketing businesses, so start one. If you want to start with the sky bank networking, go for it. Dont forget who introduced you. Its me...call 07069071568 for my real name.

Any doctor here preparing for primaries in surgery? Anyone who has already written? Please, am looking for materials.....thanks

Misplaced priorities!!!

cnwamo:
there's no scholarship available by the Chinese government for Shenyang medical college for foreigners that I'm aware of as of now. as for the food you'd learn to survive and yes you can buy your foodstuff and cook, there's a rule that new students have to stay in the hostel for at least the first year and the hostels have kitchens.
concerning the price, everything varies depending on your lifestyle, for example you can buy a box of 12 eggs at a lotte mart or tesco mart for 20 yuan while as you can buy 32 eggs for the same price or less at a common grocery store, so it depends on you.
the health question, i don't i know how to answer that question, my advice is when you come ask questions, buy where others buy, if you want to try local Chinese meals ask other foreigners what its like. as for me I've been here since 2013, i eat almost everything but still there are some meals i haven't tried and i don't intend to soon
If you are coming in winter just buy one good jacket, when you get to Shenyang you can buy better ones but if not coming in winter don't bother buying, when you get here you can get better winter clothing.
I can't think of any other thing for now, maybe you can think of something and ask, i'd try as much as possible to reply or better still text me on whats app I'll reply as long as its not mid night.

G.day bro!

Pls, I want to know if there is any chance of an international medical graduate(MBBS, Nigeria) getting into residency program in China?

Must the language be Chinese?

What of chances of getting into post graduate medical program? Any good options available? How much will it cost and any scholarship offers? What of existing part-time jobs? Any language barrier issues in class? Pls, any information will be appreciated as I plan ahead. Thanks!

Tufanja:
You have clearly not carefully read what i typed..."according to my ethics...etc". I was referring to deontological ethics and that patients' confidentiality should go hand in hand with deep rooted personal and deontological ethics towards the insight you get into patients' vulnerability.
You totally missed out the nuances of my post and the deeper meaning. Anyway, I m happy you not my doctor. Maybe it is because I am working in a world where human life and dignity are apparently more worth it than in our dear naija. I care about what confidentiality really means. Maybe you too can do some reading on the topic, there are a number of interesting publications on it. Maybe it will make you see the relevance and how it can improve the quality of care and where my approach is coming from.

My dear,

Let's stop already. Probably we've failed to understand each.
I should add however that what I have said so far and what I think you're seemly implying has in no way violated the principle of confidentiality.

"If patients wanna report their experiences here, its fine, but let medical workers refrain from it, in order not to make patients subject of fun or entertainment and damage that way the basic cores of trust that should be the fundaments of the medical profession", these where your exact words and I guess you were referring to medical ethics and not deontology.

Have a great day dear!

#loveandrespect

Tufanja:
Sorry to tell you, but as medical workers we are subject to professional secrecy. It does not only cover not mentioning patients details but according to my ethics it encompasses as much not to report about so called "embarrassing moments" with patients. For me embarrassing moments doesnt exist at all, everything is just human and natural. Patients come to you in their highest vulnerability, exposing themselves. In order to be able to cure them well, you need a confidential relationship in which you feel the medical staff is not looking at anything as weird, dirty or embarrassing.

If patients wanna report their experiences here, its fine, but let medical workers refrain from it, in order not to make patients subject of fun or entertainment and damage that way the basic cores of trust that should be the fundaments of the medical profession.

Unfortunately, you've veered off the point. Nobody is trying to renege on the oath of patients' confidentiality.

The obligation of confidentiality ONLY prohibits the health care provider from disclosing information about the patient's case(ILLNESS, AILMENT and what have you) to others without permission and encourages the providers and health care systems to take precautions to ensure that only authorized access occurs.

My dear, the listed examples in my first has in no way gone contrary to aforementioned.

Furthermore, a doctor may receive a hot slap from a patient for no obvious reason and you should as well call that patients' confidentiality ish huh?

A doctor may fall while walking on a slippery floor and this probably happened in the ever busy Accident and Emergency ward. I guess this also confidential.?

A child peeing on his doctor for fear of injections....the list is endless.

Have a great day.

We've all had need(s) requiring the services of a doctor(s). Such consultation(s) may constitute;
1. Taking a history...when the doctor asks you questions.

2. Examination...when a part(s) of your diseased body is observed.

3. Investigation...which requires you donating a bodily fluid, exposure to x-rays etc.

4. Treatment...when the doctor actually prescribes or offers deductive solution.

At each point or even in cases of emergency, we've been met embarrassing moments some of which leaves up cracking up and others, perhaps makes wanna erase that part of our encounter from our hippocampus.

Whatever the situation, let's hear it. Below are some extracts:

1.The guy whose bodily fluids cost his doctor a new book, clothes and paint.

“I was feeling unwell, and the doctor put the flat wooden stick on my tongue to check my throat. He put it too far. My gag reflex ignited and his desk, book, clothes, chair, wall, and floor… They were coated completely in vomit.”

2.The patient who ruined some white sheets:

“I had diarrhea one time and I had to lie on the [hospital] bed. The doctor came and checked my heart rate, and then she pressed on my stomach, which triggered me shitting all over the bed’s white covers. I had to walk to the bathroom down the hall in shame to clean myself.”

3 The guy who really didn’t need to touch his doctor’s knee:

“My husband went to the doctor for his knee, which was achy and clicking. The doctor assured him it wasn’t anything serious by saying, ‘If you were to feel my knee, it does the same thing.’ So [my] husband slowly reaches out and puts his hand on the doctor’s knee. Cue awkward silence for a few seconds until the doc said, ‘Please don’t touch my knee,’ and my husband left the room in mortified silence!”

4.The woman who just couldn’t hold it in:

“I farted during a gyno exam, like when her face was right there.”

5. One day I had to be the bearer of bad news when I told a wife that her husband had died of a massive myocardial infarct.
Not more than five minutes later, I heard her reporting to the rest of the family that he had died of a 'massive internal fart.

6. “I was at the gynecologist, and I was getting my first check-up. When he was giving me the check-up he told me, ‘I need you to scoot your body forward.’ So I did, but I fell off the table and the doctor caught me. It was so embarrassing!”

7. A medical student was asked to examine a man with bladder outlet obstruction(inability to pass urine). Just then he noticed a suprapubic mass(swelling in the lower part of the abdomen) and on applying pressure on that area(and of course standing infront of the man), the man suddenly shoots up and thus wet the students ward coat, face and what have you.

Share your experiences fellas!!!

Many of us grew up in homes where feeling was a bad word.
Tears were childish, anger was bad, and vulnerability was not to be shown.
But more and more, our culture is beginning to understand there's value in paying attention to our feelings. Emotions used to be considered nuisances — signs of weakness associated with hormones and irrationality.

Not sure where you stand?

Here are 16 signs you have an impressive EQ (Emotional Quotient).

1. You know the difference between a thought and a feeling.

You know thoughts form as phrases or sentences in your mind (e.g .I'm not good enough) and feelings form as sensations in your body (such as heartbreak, infuriation, anxiety). And you know both thoughts and feelings come and go —you don't have to do anything with them but acknowledge them with mindfulness and compassion.

2. You have a strong emotional vocabulary.

You know there's more than one description of your experience of "sad," for example. Perhaps you're disappointed. Or you're despairing. Or you're grieving. You know when you're feeling irritable or low, and you know when you're feeling empty.

3. You're not afraid of your own feelings, even difficult ones.

You make space for them rather than avoid or numb them.

4. You're not afraid of others' feelings, even difficult ones.

You create a safe space for them to be expressed rather than changing the subject or finding an excuse to get the eff outta there.

5. You're non-reactive.

Although you're aware that you're feeling something, you react intentionally rather than instinctively (e.g. You don't swear or smash stuff on the regular).

6. You have empathy for others.

You can imagine and understand the feelings they might be experiencing.

7. You're in touch with the bodily sensations you experience in response to emotion.
You recognize feelings like guilt, anxiety, heartbreak, and grief in your body.

8. You can tell easily when partner, friend, or family member is upset without them telling you.
You can read them.
9. You adjust your behaviour based on who you're with.

You've been called a social chameleon, or told you get along with everyone. You know what's socially desirable and what's not given your environment.

10. You thrive in a leadership role.

You have no problem spearheading projects or captaining teams.

11. You ask people questions about them.

You're genuinely interested in their lives and stories. No be gossip...o!

12. You know your values.

Underneath it all, you're in touch with what drives you.

13. You know the importance of listening to your heart.

You don't always go for the "logical" choice, whether it's when you're choosing a pair of shoes or choosing a partner.

14. You know how to work a room.

You thrive as a wedding or Christmas party date, even when you know no one.

15. You're able to deal with conflict.

You don't avoid it and you don't become aggressive in response to it.

16. You're not derailed from a goal by a single (or several) setback(s).

You're to dust yourself off and try again, or take a step back and go at a goal from a different angle.

Rate yourselves Mate!
Sound like you? Great...!

Doesn't sound like you at all? Fear not (ahem, notice and make space for that fear). Unlike your IQ, which stays relatively stable throughout your life, you can increase your EQ over time.
