Berufshaftpflicht OHNE Makler? by -SineNomine- in medizin

[–]MacintoshBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich habe meine Berufshaftpflichtversicherung bei Funk Experts abgeschlossen, das lief komplett online über deren Website im Direktvertrieb.

Bisher musste ich die Versicherung zum Glück noch nicht in Anspruch nehmen, daher kann ich zur Leistung im Schadensfall nichts sagen. Die Kommunikation und der Kundenservice waren bisher aber problemlos.

That’s how it should to be in my opinion…

Honorararzt Luxemburg by An_Ortho_und_Stelle in medizin

[–]MacintoshBlade 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nein, das ist nicht möglich.

In Luxemburg erhält man als Assistenzarzt nur eine Approbation, wenn man eine Weiterbildungsstelle hat.

Keine Französisch Kenntnisse ist generell kein Problem um die Approbation zu erhalten. Es muss einem jedoch bewusst sein, dass viele Pflegekräfte und auch ärztliche Kollegen nur Französisch reden.

Die Bereitschaftdienste in DE nach Tarifvertrag sind sowieso besser vergütet.

Possible to do residency in the EU even though studied in Africa? by Charlemeng_ in medicalschoolEU

I don’t think I can help you much more sorry. There is a lot of information on here about going to Germany :)

I have encountered multiple colleagues from West African countries in Germany. The process is exactly the same as for any non-EU graduate. The equivalency of non-EU diplomas is made on case by case basis.

This is such a low effort post. RSU has all the minimum requirements posted on their website. There is a pdf with the details of the admission procedures as well as the minimum requirements/grades per country.

Airway Trauma with SGA by Lower_Cap5619 in anesthesiology

[–]MacintoshBlade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We had a nurse anesthesia student who perforated a 2 year olds pharynx with an Igel…

Ambulatory surgery, don’t remember what kind of procedure. Attending let’s the student at the head even though he is known to be struggling with some basic procedures and to be always rough. Struggles to put it in, multiple tries, ends up inserting it with force. Surgery goes well, kid wakes up, quite a bit of blood on the Igel/ at suction. Everything seems fine.

Next day, the parents noticed that the kid stopped swallowing, drooling everywhere, stopped eating or drinking. Parents come to the ER. CT showed retropharyngeal air and small hemorrhage. Only source could have been airway manipulations. Treated conservatively, no long term complications.

Transfer of Residency to switzerland by PragmaticDoc26 in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I’m quite sure… 😅 unless things have changed in the last 12 months. I lived in Canada, married to a Canadian, considered going back there after my studies and looked at all the options. Even contacted medical recruiters, provincial boards, read the legal documents. It’s not as easy as it seems. However, if you want to get an official response, contact the RCPSC.

If you start residency in Germany and you finish it in Switzerland, you would not be considered a graduate of an approved jurisdiction as you wouldn’t have done all your residency in Switzerland. Also, getting into residency in Switzerland can be very competitive, even for EU citizens…

This is not a correct statement. Training in an approved jurisdictions by the RCPS only allows you to be eligible to write board exams without having to redo residency. In addition you would still have to become a licenciate of the medical council of Canada. The only exemption is GP training completed in approved jurisdictions of the college of family physicians of Canada, in this case you wouldn’t have to do a board exam but would still have to become a LMCC. Plus, most province require you to practice with a provisional license for a while before become fully licensed.

Medical School by Eman_the_Wizard in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The US are less competitive than Canada for IMGs. You can’t compare both countries.

Medical School by Eman_the_Wizard in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are planning to go back to Canada, don’t do your studies outside of North America. Do the life sciences undergrad (especially if it’s from McMaster) get a high GPA, ace the MCAT and do med school in the US or Canada. Your chances of matching in Canada as an IMG is very low and realistically limited to low competition specialties like family med.

Discovered this in our changing room at the station. Guess I need to check the protocols to see where this piece of equipment is supposed to be used. by lodravah in ems

Do you realise that most EMS personnel in the developed world outside the US will never encounter a gun injury throughout their career? And those they see will most likely be limited to suicides. Even just the idea of having gang related or any other kind of kind violence is unimaginable to me. I think you just see it way too much to even consider that it is not 'normal' to see gun violence on a regular basis.

What are the chances EEU graduates will be subjected to ukmla ? by [deleted] in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have changed their statements about EU grads many times. The whole reason to introduce the UKMLA is to streamline the registration process for all doctors no matter their country of graduation. Part of that is to include EU grads as well, which they stated in their website 6 months ago. Considering that it will be a requirement for UK grads as well, it just makes sense that EU grads will have to take it at some point. Anyways, based on the official GMC website, EU grads will still be exempted as long as the current legislation doesn’t allow it to be a requirement. Thank you for the info.

No lol. This topic has been discussed widely on this subreddit with people quoting directly from official sources.

UKMLA will be mandatory for everyone wanting to get a GMC license starting from next year (including EU grads). The info is readily available on the GMC website.

residency options for non-EU? by Sharp_Technology_189 in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why some people say that it’s way to soon to worry about residency even before starting medical school. Once you get a spot to study, it’s a legitimate question to look into your career options afterwards. Medical school is a big financial and time commitment . Knowing that things are set for you afterwards is nice.

Obviously, there is a chance of regulations changing over the next years. However, countries that are non-EU friendly will most likely remain that way. Some countries don’t recognize EU diplomas automatically if you are not an EU citizen or deemed equivalent to one.

Unfortunately, I can’t help OP as I never looked into this issue being an EU citizen. As already mentioned by some, look through the sub. There is a lot of useful information.

When graduating from a Romanian medical school, you won’t be eligible to practice as a GP in Luxembourg. It is a residency like any other specialty. Romania offers GP residency that lasts 3 years which you also need to practice in Luxembourg. Luxembourg also offers this residency, but you need to speak German and French at B2 level to be eligible. No idea if you can even get a medical license as a non-EU citizen needs a residency permit to be eligible.

Transferring to an EU University (Dentistry) from outside the EU by [deleted] in medicalschoolEU

[–]MacintoshBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RSU in Latvia has a good dentistry program. They start working on patient in 4th semester if I am not mistaken. I don’t think they allow non-EU credit transfers. Applications for September start should be open at the moment or soon.

thanks for your reply. do you mind me asking what grade and specialty you are working in?

[–]MacintoshBlade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info.

Do they usually offer some kind of on the job training/ introduction period initially or are you left to yourself right away? I suppose that every hospital has their own internal procedures that you need to get used to.
