On 19 May 2020, contact teaching for general medicine students studying in English at the Medical Faculty of Masaryk University was partially resumed in compliance with hygiene measures and with the use of protective equipment.
The subject which has resumed is nursing, in which practical skills are acquired and which therefore could not be fully implemented in online form. Students can therefore prepare for professional internships and clinical practice. Students have already mastered the theoretical foundations of online teaching and are now practising skills that will help them with the daily management of patient care. The pictures show students in the second year of the General Medicine study program who were in the Czech Republic during the pandemic.
Dear students, we are very happy that you are back in the classroom, and we will do our best to ensure that you are well prepared to perform activities in clinical practice and be able to improve your knowledge and skills for use in patient care.
On 5 March, a lecture on healthy nutrition and plant-based diet was organized by IFMSA CZ Brno in cooperation with experts from PAN Czech Republic. Participants learned about the importance of good nutrition, practical tips for creating a healthy diet and had the opportunity to taste plant-based dishes.
For one day, the Faculty of Medicine at Masaryk University hosted a fundraiser for the Krtek Foundation, which supports the development of personalized treatment for pediatric patients. The fundraiser, which raised over 8,500 CZK, was organized by general medicine students at our faculty, along with the foundation's mascot. The plush mole managed to briefly visit a physiology lecture while spreading hugs during the event.
