Hospital Head Struggles with Undergraduate Interns

WHY IT MATTERS

The issue highlights the challenges of integrating undergraduate interns into a hospital setting and the importance of effective selection and training processes to ensure a smooth transition.

What happened

A hospital in Metro Manila is facing challenges with its undergraduate internship program, which was expanded to include AB seniors. The head of the HR department, Aimee, expressed frustration with the interns' behavior, citing their expectation of being respected, lack of self-respect, and tendency to invent test results. Dr. Holmes and Mr. Baer offered advice, suggesting that Aimee explore alternative solutions, such as improving the selection process and discussing the unsuitability of the program with the hospital owner. Dr. Holmes also suggested that Aimee's perception of the differences between the undergraduate interns and graduate students may be influenced by her expectations and the excitement of the new expansion.
