The Government of India's (GOI) initiatives to increase the number of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) graduates by establishing more and more medical colleges have been showing their repercussions. There are several doubts over the quality of medical education (ME) and the competency of MBBS graduates. In addition, the National Medical Commission (NMC), the body that regulates ME and medical practice in India, has been busy ensuring the uniformity of ME standards by conducting regular inspections. The NMC ensures infrastructure, faculty, and patient availability before permitting colleges to admit students. Several issues are plaguing faculty, students, and other personnel working in medical colleges, which could potentially influence the educational environment (EE) and the competency of graduating students. Evidence of disparity in infrastructure, faculty, and EE in medical colleges confirms the necessity of holistic improvements. Therefore, it is suggested that the NMC utilize ombudsman services in medical institutions, which have been successfully implemented in the banking and insurance sectors.
印度政府通过建立越来越多的医学院来增加医学学士和外科学士(MBBS)毕业生数量的举措已经显现出影响。人们对医学教育质量和MBBS毕业生的能力存在诸多疑虑。此外,印度负责监管医学教育和医疗实践的机构——国家医学委员会(NMC),一直忙于通过定期检查来确保医学教育标准的统一。NMC在允许医学院录取学生之前,会确保基础设施、师资和患者资源的可用性。一些问题困扰着医学院的教师、学生和其他工作人员,这可能会对教育环境(EE)和应届毕业生的能力产生潜在影响。医学院在基础设施、师资和教育环境方面存在差异的证据证实了全面改进的必要性。因此,建议NMC在医疗机构中利用监察员服务,这在银行和保险行业已成功实施。
