08/08/2021

New arrivals! So happy that we have managed to work with our students to get ready for their placements once the travel measures will allow us to. CHP Program is reopened since the end of June and some of our students are about to start their 6th week with us.

The pandemic of COVID-19 exposed, apart from the fragility of national healthcare systems, how essential the soft skills of healthcare professionals are. That is why we put together a series of talks with experts on current topics based on their own professional experience while giving the best practice for health providers.

The first guest of CHP Program's Better Health Care Professional Podcast is MUDr. Radek Mounajjed DDS., Ph.D., FAP., a specialist in dental prosthodontics and head doctor in DCM dental clinic in Hradec Králové, Czech Republic. Apart from being the first Czech stomatologist to give lectures at the Mayo Clinic or Harvard School of Dental Medicine, he teaches externally at the University of Toronto or the Palackého University.

Doctor Mounajjed is the coordinator of the initiative Doctors help Czechia (Lékaři pomáhají Česku) that innovatively organized testing and vaccination in the Czech Republic. What has motivated this group of healthcare professionals to help the state and the Czech community outside their daily jobs at the healthcare facilities? What obstacles have they faced and why?

How will education in the healthcare field develop? What makes a great healthcare provider? And much more on skills we would have wished to learn during our university studies with doctor Radek Mounajjed.

Incredibly happy to share with you the news!

Better Health Care Professional is the new podcast where we focus on deep conversation with experts on skills in healthcare which we would have wished to learn during our university studies. In the first episodes, we will focus on innovation, fighting misinformation in the COVID-era, communication with media, mental well-being of health providers and explaining data to the public.

Read the student review by Hannah Martin who shadowed the healthcare professionals in the Children's Heart Center and Obstertics and Gyneacology Specialized Center.
"The day before I flew to Prague to attend the Czech Hospital Placements program, I thought I was certain in my desire to become a doctor. During the ensuing two weeks, I realized that I had never truly understood the lifestyle that is practicing medicine. On the final day of my placement, I called my parents and told them, with more conviction and certainty than ever before, that I was going to be a doctor."

Really happy about today's decision of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs to open our borders to vaccinated students and tourists from Monday 21st June on.

As of June 21, travelers from the EU plus 20 other countries can visit the Czech Republic for tourism, but need Covid certificates to stay in hotels.
