MEDR930ASeminars and Conferences
Seminars and conferences represent both a learning and assessment tool knowing that the theoretical education of the resident remains mostly a personal work that begins with reading books and articles, preparing conferences and is ongoing with continuing medical education and self­learning (erudition). During development, the “apprentice doctors” must initially attend and listen to their elders, then submit records to the staff, then present lectures to peers and seniors locally (hospital) and in a local congress and finally in an international congress. In parallel and concerning teaching, it begins with clinical teaching to the youngest and finishes during university courses.

Mission

The general surgery residency program will train general surgeons with a comprehensive approach in the state-of-the-art field of general surgery (neck, breast, gastro­intestinal, oncological, endocrine surgery and all aspects of laparoscopy) to provide residents with first­hand experience of managing surgical patients in a variety of surgical areas by developing their technical, professional and ethical skills according to the values of our institution.

Program Educational Objectives

1. Graduates must use their basic and clinical knowledge acquired during the specialization path in order to support and treat the patient within the specialty, but without forgetting their skills in general practice.
2. Must support the patient psychologically and morally, and the family and entourage for better therapeutic compliance.
3. Must improve their knowledge and skills in parallel to the new technological discoveries and put them to the service of their patients according to the rules of professionalism and ethics.
4. Have to practice their profession in accordance with the principles of quality, in particular the principles of efficiency and equity.
5. Must share their knowledge and promote prevention principles and other public health principles.

Program Outcomes

At the end of the program, the young specialists will:
a. Master the basic knowledge and clinical knowledge of the specialty in order to analyze the clinical situation, to propose a course of action and the appropriate treatment and be ready to act quickly in urgent cases.
b. Acquire deep knowledge in other specialties (all surgical specialties, plus more medical).
c. Be able to take charge of a patient and provide moral and psychological support to the patient and entourage.
d. Be prepared to use new knowledge and new techniques to improve their practice.
