What is a "teaching hospital"?

A teaching hospital is a medical facility where in addition to providing medical treatment to patients, healthcare professionals, such as doctors and nurses, receive advanced training and education. These hospitals are connected with medical schools or universities and play a crucial role in medical education, research, and patient care. Teaching hospitals offer opportunities for students and residents to learn and practice clinical skills under the supervision of experienced healthcare professionals. Additionally, they often participate in innovative research and clinical trials, advancing medical knowledge and patient care practices.
