Every year, the Allied Health Services train about 100 students altogether. We provide training for different services including Clinical Psychology, Diagnostic Radiology, Medical Social Service, Nutrition & Dietetics, Pharmacy and Rehabilitation Services. Our partners include:
During the clinical placements, students are given the opportunity to work with a multi-disciplinary team consisting of doctors and nurses, to acquire different skills and knowledge based on their preferences and readiness. At the community hospital, our students learn to work closely in teams to establish holistic care plans for patients. They may also be paired with other students to do peer teaching and learning. They are guided to adopt an evidence-based approach to assess and manage patients. Throughout the journey, clinical educators work closely together with schools to monitor the students’ learning progress using a robust evaluation system.
Over the years, we have been receiving positive feedback from schools and students. Many appreciated that the placement at KTPH had equipped them for future employment and further study.
