SOCIAL LIFE AND NETWORKS FOR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  Hey, I recently discovered that once you’re a medical student or professional, it is common for people to insinuate that you don’t have social presence in your life, you are considered to be boring and worse, you might even accept that you are. Occasionally this insinuation is right, in others it is not. Realistically, for medical students, having a healthy social life and a strong professional network is extremely beneficial. Connections and support have a profound impact on both personal and professional success. Let’s consider a few social factors that can improve your social life and networking. EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES This will be a broad point as there are many different types of extra-curricular activities you can engage in as a medical student such as campus events like social dances or movie-nights, educational trips to health facilities, community service projects, volunteering opportunities at local hospitals, health-fairs and screenings, conferences and semin...

The insinuation that a nurse is less important than a doctor is a common one. The accolades given to medical doctors, surgeons or physicians from the field of medicine and surgery especially in Nigeria varies starkly from that given to a nurse or radiologist. Why is this so? The truth is all medical practices are important in their own way. Medical professionals ranging from the medical doctors, physiotherapists, pharmacists, radiologist, laboratory scientists, nurses, dentists and pharmacologists are all vital to the healthcare system and all require unique sets of skills and knowledge. No single medical career is “more important” than the other! Let’s consider NURSING for our first case study. Nursing is a very diverse field with various career paths to choose from. The nurses provide direct patient care, diagnose and treat patients and in some cases even prescribe medication. To fulfill these tasks, nurses are required to have excellent communication skills, critical thinking and ...
