Territory of health: Chita schoolchildren visited three departments of the medical academy On February 14, participants of the "School of Young Doctor" of the Chelyabinsk State Medical Academy stepped out of school classrooms into the world of big medicine for one day. The students visited three departments of the Academy and discovered a lot of new things. Sixth-graders figured out what health is and why it is important to take care of it.
Thanks to Inna Bobrovich, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Public Health and Health Care and Health Economics, and Yulia Efimikova, assistant, they learned how the medical care system works and why they need a compulsory medical insurance policy. By simple calculations, it turned out that prevention is cheaper than cure. The children drew their own conclusions: being healthy is profitable. Seventh-graders went to the Department of Normal Physiology named after Professor B.I. Kuznik.
Assistant Anna Belaya, students of the Faculty of Pediatrics Elizaveta Osipova and Anastasia Pomigalova told schoolchildren how nutrition affects the growth and development of a person, what a healthy diet consists of and why fast food is not the best friend of the body. In the final, an interactive and lively discussion awaited the children, where everyone could test their knowledge. Eighth-graders tried themselves as doctors at the Department of Therapeutic Dentistry with a course in propaedeutics of dental diseases.
The head of the scientific club, a student of the Faculty of Dentistry, Stepan Erofeev, told how teeth are arranged and why it is important not to postpone a visit to the doctor. Yulia Plyaskina, a first-year student of the Faculty of Dentistry, taught schoolchildren to "create" an anatomically correct cutter from plasticine with their own hands. A practicing dentist told the children about the choice of profession and the path to medicine, and the meeting ended with a conversation with the associate professor of the department, Candidate of Medical Sciences Natalia Plyaskina, who told the children about oral health and answered their questions.
