The 4 week posting in orthopaedic surgery is a practice and student internship programme (SIP). The duration will be spent in a single hospital to enable the students to better integrate into the respective department and teams. This will allow them to participate holistically and longitudinally in the care of patients, from the Emergency Department\/clinics to surgery\/wards to discharge. This posting will develop their clinical ability, professionalism, identity formation, and provide a seamless transition to internship\/ residency training.<\/p>

The aims are to provide the final year students with the opportunity to consolidate the training and be a functional doctor equipped with relevant basic surgical skills and knowledge in year one postgraduate (PGY1).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
