Who is an "intern"?
An intern is a medical school graduate who recently completed their degree and is undergoing supervised training, known as internship, in a hospital or healthcare facility. This period typically lasts one year and provides hands-on experience in various medical specialties, including internal medicine, surgery, and pediatrics. Interns work under the guidance of experienced doctors, gaining practical skills in diagnosing and treating patients, performing procedures, and managing medical emergencies. They play a crucial role in patient care, helping with medical evaluations, performing physical examinations, and participating in treatment planning. Interns also participate in educational activities, such as attending lectures and conferences, to further develop their medical knowledge and skills.
