Dear students and the NSMCH family,
At NSMCH, our focus is simple: turn learning into capability—at the bedside, in the community, and for life. We follow a competency-based approach with early clinical exposure, AETCOM, simulation-based training, and objective assessments (OSCE/OSPE) so that every student practices safe, confident, and compassionate care.
Aligned with the National Medical Commission (NMC), we strive to develop Indian Medical Graduates (IMGs) with the knowledge, skills, attitudes, values, and responsiveness to serve as first-contact physicians for the community—while remaining globally relevant. This is embedded through structured logbooks, continuous feedback, supervised responsibilities in wards/OPDs, and community postings.
I encourage you to pair strong fundamentals with curiosity and empathy: join clinical audits, pursue research electives, engage in quality-improvement projects, and use our digital tools (EMR, PACS, evidence resources) wisely. Faculty mentorship, peer learning, and wellbeing support are integral to your journey here.
Bring diligence to your study, humility to your practice, and service to your community. The outcomes—competence, character, and credibility—will follow.
Warm regards,
Dr. Prem Kumar
Dean, Netaji Subhas Medical College & Hospital (NSMCH)
