The hospital is giving more emphasis on assessment and utmost medication of all the diseases. The students who are enrolling for this course must have good communication, observation and assessment skill. Along with the key skills, they have empathy and better understanding with patients.
The mental retarded patients needs emotional support more so the doctors must see patient like their near and dear ones. This course is more about listening, understanding, communicating and taking care of the effected ones. The new doctors will get an opportunity to work under an experienced nurse of Quinte Health Care. It will be in clinical rotation to have hands on experience in medication for all the doctors.
