There are many private and state and federal hospitals that are not approved for the training of medical students (internship). On this page, Fatherprada is going to list out the teaching hospitals approved by the medical and dental council of Nigeria for internship training with a number of approved interns.
Universities in Nigeria are usually not fully equipped to take of the practical need for medical students and health professionals, therefore the need for a university teaching hospital becomes a necessity.
The internship is a programme was designed for university medical and health graduate for a period of Twelve months to enable them to have exposure and opportunity to implement the learnt theoretical knowledge on real-life scenarios.
University teaching hospitals were specially established to provide university graduates with an opportunity to gain mastery, gather experience, get exposure to real-life scenarios under the strict supervision of a physician and give them an insight on career path…
In Nigeria, Teaching hospitals are affiliated with approved universities and medical schools and work closely with medical students throughout their period of matriculation, and especially during their internship years. There is stiff competition amongst medical and health graduates for slots usually less than 150. It is advisable to start searching for internship positions as soon as possible.
- An internship is a paid one-year work-in-training programme.
- Nursing internships are paid 100 – 140,000 per month
- Doctors call internship – Housemanship
