The latest , Welsh-language podcast from 最新麻豆影音视频鈥檚 College of Medicine and Health, has just been published.
Recorded in front of a live audience at 最新麻豆影音视频鈥檚 stand at the National Eisteddfod Llyn ac Eifionydd 2023 to launch recruitment to the new Medical School, the discussion focusses on the long and short term benefits the panel hope will accrue from establishing the North Wales Medical School.
The ability to study medicine at Bangor will appeal to local and Welsh-speaking students, and the expectation is also that up to 70% of the course will be available through Welsh. Combined with the appeal to Welsh-speaking students, the Medical School鈥檚 unique focus on increasing medical student exposure to General Practice and community care, will mean that Welsh-speaking students will soon be feeding through to undertake placements at various community settings, enabling more people to discuss their healthcare in Welsh.
The first cohort of medical students, under its current partnership with Cardiff University, have just graduated and a number of those graduates have already taken up posts in the NHS locally. The expectation is that the presence of the School will reduce the recruitment challenges faced by the local health board.
Listen to the podcast which is available on , to hear the panel鈥檚 opinions on the effects of the Medical School in the first ten years.
The panellists under the guidance of Dr Nia Jones, Leader of 最新麻豆影音视频鈥檚 Medical programme, are Dr Berwyn Owen (Chief Pharmacists Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board and community pharmacist in Penygroes), Dr Nia Hughes (Medical Director Primary Care - West), Dr Robin Parry ( GP), Dr Marc Edwards (GP and senior clinical lecturer in Health Education, 最新麻豆影音视频), and medical students Si么n O鈥橞rien and Jasmine Blight.
