The Aula Magna of the Faculty of Medicine has been the setting chosen for the heads of the medical and nursing management teams, Carlos Romero, and Juan David Fernández, to welcome the 110 new residents of the Medicine disciplines , Nursing, Pharmacy, Biology and Psychology who have started this week their stage of specialized health training at the University Hospital Complex of Albacete.
Immediately afterwards, the welcome course took place with the tutors and managers of each of the teaching units, where the graduates had the opportunity to learn about the specific teacher training management programs, the research facet, the clinical simulation unit (SimAb ), the humanization of care, and attending a seminar on the Emergency Service, where many of them will coincide in their rotation.
The objective of this course, as reported by the person in charge of the head of studies for Specialized Health Training, María José Donate Moreno, was to inform first-year residents of all specialties about the most relevant aspects of the health center chosen to carry out the training as a complement to the center’s reception guide; the presentation of the teaching units and available resources; information on the structure of the hospital center was also provided and a first contact was established with some of the specialists from the services where the graduates will carry out their rotations over the next two years (in the case of Nursing specialties), and four and five in the rest of the professions, both Medicine, Pharmacy, Psychology or Biology, among others. The new residents also had the opportunity to learn about the resources at their disposal, from the library, the Continuing Education department, the Research Unit, the Emergency Service, the information systems and the electronic medical record.
Donate Moreno assured that “these 110 residents today have been seen looking forward to starting a new, already different, professional stage, where they will have an income while training in their chosen specialty; “They go from the student stage to a more work stage.”
The head of studies at Specialized Health Training assured that “60% of the residents who are training in Albacete this week are students of UCLM faculties, while the rest mostly come from the Valencian community, Murcia, and also from other corners of the country, and seven of them are from non-EU countries (Colombia, Dominican Republic, Guatemala and Ecuador).

Of them, four from Pharmacy (one from Clinical Analysis, another from Microbiology and two from Hospital Pharmacy); one from Biology (Clinical Biochemistry); 27 from Nursing (nine from Family and Community; five from Geriatric Nursing; five more from Pediatric; three from Mental Health and five from midwifery); two from Clinical Psychology and 76 from Medicine.
