DigiMed(Digital Competencies for Medical Students), conceptualized by Dr. ES Chakravarthy<\/span><\/a> (former TCS Global Head, Strategic Advisor to Adichunchanagiri University) for AIMS (Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences\u2026)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Introduction:<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Future doctors\/medical practitioners in India must possess competencies like critical thinking, problem-solving, strong speaking & listening skills, compassion & empathy, lifelong learning, cultural competency, Technology and resilience to effectively diagnose and treat patients, navigate complex medical situations, and provide patient-centred care in a rapidly changing, evolving, and demanding healthcare industry.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

While medical institutions are well positioned to nurture the right culture, traditional skills, knowledge and competencies, there is a strong need for institutions to explore\/focus on various ways\/opportunities to teach, train, and strongly orient medical students in technology because the modern medical practices heavily rely on Technology and Digital Tools.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

>>> Sample Job Description \/ Skills needed to do To pursue a Master’s in Robotic Surgery<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

>>> Need competencies in surgical skills, advanced knowledge of anatomy, strong technical skills in operating robotic systems, proficiency in computer software used for robotic surgery, excellent hand-eye coordination, strong communication skills, strong exposure to technology, critical thinking, leadership abilities, and a deep understanding of the principles of minimally invasive surgery, alongside a solid foundation in medical knowledge and surgical techniques.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

>>> (The above job description has been copied from web literature to demonstrate the importance of technology for doctors to the readers of this article)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
