World Youth Skills Day is celebrated on July 15. This date was established by the UN General Assembly in 2014 to highlight the importance of vocational training for young people, developing practical skills, and supporting employment and entrepreneurship.
In medicine, mentoring by experienced doctors plays a special role in the professional development of young specialists. Mentors help aspiring professionals combine theoretical knowledge with practice, learn how to make clinical decisions, understand responsibility, and work as a team.
According to Magzhan Sadykov, head of the Radiation Diagnostics Department of the National Hospital, doctor of the highest category, Doctor of Medical Sciences, associate Professor, mentor of the first category, medicine requires constant development and continuous training.
& #8212; Technologies are being developed, and new diagnostic and treatment methods are being regularly introduced. However, even the most modern equipment cannot replace an experienced mentor. Working alongside senior colleagues, a young doctor learns not only professional skills, but also clinical thinking, the ability to make the right decisions and feel responsible to the patient. Therefore, mentoring is an important part of building a strong medical team, " he said.
The department has created conditions for young specialists to ask questions, exchange opinions and receive practical recommendations from experienced colleagues. This approach helps you learn more about your profession, prevent possible mistakes, and improve the safety of medical care.
-We strive to create an atmosphere of mutual understanding and respect in the team. Young professionals are not afraid to ask tough questions, and experienced doctors are ready to share their knowledge and support colleagues at every stage of professional development. I wish young specialists to keep striving for knowledge, not stop searching for new things and achieve further success, " Magzhan Sadykov said.
According to experts, the continuity of generations and systematic mentoring affect not only the development of a young doctor, but also the quality of medical care in general. Only a specialist who combines knowledge with practical experience can provide patients with safe, accurate and high-quality medical care.
