There is an emerging role in international health for departments of medicine that care to accept the challenge. Supervised medical rotations in the developing world and the care of culturally distinct immigrant populations provide unique opportunities to expand the scope of medical education while emphasizing a sensitive and humanistic approach to health care. The restraints imposed by diminished laboratory support and limited availability of drugs can foster reliance on diagnostic skills and the essential elements of therapy. Medical schools may elect to become involved in international health, but they must do so without becoming exploitative. Rotations of students, residents, and faculty in both directions should lead to productive interaction at both the clinical and research levels, for all participants.
对于愿意接受挑战的医学系而言，在国际卫生领域正逐渐发挥出作用。在发展中国家进行的有监督的医学轮转以及对文化背景各异的移民群体的护理，为扩大医学教育范围提供了独特机会，同时强调对医疗保健采取敏感且人文主义的方法。实验室支持减少和药品供应有限所带来的限制，能够促使人们依赖诊断技能和治疗的基本要素。医学院校可以选择参与国际卫生事务，但必须避免成为剥削性的一方。学生、住院医师和教员的双向轮转应该能在临床和研究层面为所有参与者带来富有成效的互动。
