Description
Ibrahim Eker and co-authors test a hands-on training model for medical interns, in a 2026 study from Türkiye. In the usual model, interns mostly watch senior doctors, which can leave them unready for real practice. The new model gives interns their own patients, growing freedom, and close mentoring. It ran in a hospital unit with no resident doctors, where interns carry more weight.
The study compared 112 interns in the new model with 75 in the old one over one year. The new-model group gained far more in job confidence and in professional attitudes. Gains were clear in empathy and in sense of duty as well. Far more of them also grew keen on a children's blood and cancer specialty. No safety events were blamed on intern care. The authors back wider use of the model.
