KUANTAN: The Tengku Ampuan Afzan Hospital (HTAA) here will become a teaching hospital for the sports medicine Specialist Training Programme (PLK) of the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) master medical students, said Pahang Health director Datuk Dr Nor Azimi Yunus
It is expected to be realised next year, after receiving recognition from Universiti Malaya (UM) which is the only higher education institution offering a Master’s programme in the field so far. “Currently, we are preparing the relevant working papers to be sent to UM and it is expected to be followed up with a visit by the relevant parties to HTAA at the end of this year before it is known whether we have obtained the recognition,” she said. “Only after that, can we start accepting students or trainees to undergo training since we already have some specialists (in the field) and suitable facilities.”
