rt in medicinal space sounds
strange, isn't it?
Whenever we hear about art, many of us reminisce about painting, fine arts, music, dance and the dedication of the artists who perform this particular art. But how does the medical profession is art-oriented?
Art defines the emotions of the human being, and medical space is one of the most incredible arts where the artists are the doctors and nurses who save human lives and retrieve the emotions and humanity in the world.
We, as human beings, always believe in God and think that God is our life's saviour. Still, whenever we humans go through some deadly disease or any
accident, medical professionals play the role of saviour of our life; without discriminating, they treat their patients unconditionally and relieve their pain.
With the changing landscape and rising population and pollution, diseases have also increased, and medical professionals are working unstoppably to save people from these diseases.
The need for medical professionals has also been rising, and to fulfil the demand, medical institutions have been curating future life saviours with advanced curricula and skills to help them shape the medical space's future. Medical institutions have played a significant role in integrating medical artists and incorporating values to serve humankind effortlessly without any greed.
Reminiscing the primary aspect of serving mankind, medical institutions have been incorporating the values and also adopting technological
advancement in their pedagogies. Therefore, the institution constantly has been developing medical curricula in which the colleges address future health-related consequences and their solutions. And the common aim of medical professionals is to save people's lives.
In our latest edition, 'Medical Colleges of the Year 2022' , we crossed paths with some renowned medical institutes instilling artistic values in medical education.
The enthusiasm which sows a seed in you to learn more about medical colleges will retain you to read the articles that our in-house editorial team has shared in The Knowledge Review Magazine.

India was ranked 67 amongst the developing countries in terms of doctor patient ratio till a decade ago when it was well below the WHO prescribed ratio 1 doctor per 1000 population. According to the latest data provided by National Medical Commission (NMC), India now has a doctor patient ratio of 1:854. There are 183 government and 215 private institutions from where students are training to become doctors all over the country. To provide a career opportunity in healthcare to wards of soldiers of our country some of whom may have lost their lives in service or others who are serving in remote area and have been staying away from families for years together, Army College of Medical Sciences was established .
It is a step to bridge the gap and to produce Indian medical graduates who are competent, compassionate and globally relevant. Placed in the Cantonment area of the capital, the college is the brainchild of the Army Welfare Education Society, enhancing medical education to the wards of Army personnel.
In our venture for the edition, 'Medical Colleges of the Year, 2022,' we came across Major General Surender Mohan , Vishisht Seva Medal (VSM) the Dean of the College , who has taken the college to new heights and training the aspirants in such a way that is world class and in sync with the latest developments in the world of healthcare.
While having a long discussion with The Knowledge Review , Maj Gen Surender
Mohan shared his overall experiences, aim and inception story.
Army Welfare Education Society (AWES) established the Army College of Medical st Sciences on 1 April 2008, with the aim of providing quality medical education to the wards of serving/retired army personnel and war widows.
It is a premier medical college in India with faculty from renowned medical institutes from all over the country. They guide the students to remain updated with the latest trends as the healthcare sector is continuously evolving. The college is affiliated with Guru Govind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi and is also recognised by the Medical Council of India - MCI (now National Medical Commission - NMC). The campus bears a striking ambience and has been designed with aesthetic buildings, green landscaping, comfortable accommodation, robust sports and recreational facilities.
The campus covers 25.559 acres of land and is located in the Delhi Cantonment area. It is 100 meters from the Delhi Cantt Metro Station, and is easily accessible for employees, students and visitors.
The campus has developed the concept of a green environment. The college is housed with twenty-three classrooms, seven seminar rooms, eighteen labs, an audiovisual library, and one common library.
ACMS also offers IT Centre (MEDLARS room) with sufficient computers with an
internet connection for students. Other than the IT Centre, the college also has a skill lab and an Up-to-date App for faculty and students. Apart from the labs, the college has two student canteens and eight play grounds. The hostel accommodation for students is well equipped with a gym, other sports facilities, music and fine arts room, yoga and meditation rooms for holistic development of the budding doctors.
The success story of the college is narrated by the great personality of Maj Gen Surender Mohan, a great achiever and highlights his overall career journey and experiences.
Apart from being a renowned Gynaecologist, Major General Surender Mohan is recipient of the prestigious Vishisht Seva Medal (VSM), awarded to him in the year 2015. He has vast experience in the clinical and surgical management of patients in the entire spectrum of Obstetrics and Gynecology, including Advanced Laparoscopic surgery. Moreover, he has commanded the 500 bedded Military Hospital in Dehradun and also served as Deputy Commandant at Army Medical Corps Centre and College Lucknow.
After training generations of doctors over three decades of his meritorious service in the forces he now currently serves as the Dean of ACMS. He has taken over the task with a vision of transforming infrastructure, facilities and education for the young minds at this college.
He has also taken multiple initiatives/ projects to create an environment for the all-around growth of the students and faculty development.
Maj Gen Surender Mohan is also an eminent scholar with various publications in national and international journals of repute to his credit.
To achieve a common dream, a group of people work together. Similarly, ACMS has a set vision, mission and core values, and this code of ethics bring prestige to the college.
Maj Gen Surender Mohan has shared the list of value statements with us that says, Ÿ "To establish, nurture and sustain an environment for conducive learning, seeking and imparting knowledge, conducting research and cultivating curiosity of mind in students and faculty members.
Ÿ
To build an ethos of compassionate, empathetic care and concern among students and faculty members for patients and their relatives.
Ÿ
To build an enduring edifice of character and empathy among students and faculty members.
Ÿ
To prepare young medical students for a glorious, prestigious, noble career with special knowledge of Armed Forces requirements and inculcate in them the spirit to serve the nation and balance it in equal measure by skills of hand and heart."
All these set objectives lead the success in college, but the question comes across what courses ACMS provides and their outcomes. To get the answer read ahead!
All medical students of the college are expected to demonstrate proficiency in medical knowledge, critical thinking and inquiry, patient care, professionalism, interpersonal and communicational skills and organisational and social determination of health care.
General Surender Mohan Dean, Army College of Medical Sciences
For this, the college works to establish, nurture, and sustain an environment for learning and imparting knowledge, allowing the students to conduct research, publish papers and prepare them for a noble career along with expertise and discipline.
ACMS is already renowned for providing medical education to enhance and polish the students' skills; the college has also introduced various unique programs for their holistic development to serve the country's general community at frontline and in Armed Forces.
ACMS introduced the skill laboratory to provide a safe and non-threatening environment for students who are learning, practising, and performing their skills in a simulated environment. The college's skill lab recreates the clinical atmosphere where students can practice and polish their skills.
In the current scenario, medical education is adopting competencybased and more clinical-oriented education; in which students get clinical exposure from their first year. These practices and exposure help the students to promote health and prevent disease in population.
The students of the college are motivated to participate in workshops, seminars, and inter-college academic competitions, and as per NMC guidelines ACMS too has started the 'Family Adoption Programme' ; under this program, a cluster of students st starting from 1 year has been allotted a group of families with whom they will interact and solve their issues related to health and wellbeing.
The students also get an opportunity to study the various aspects of health and diseases, which are the family's influencing factors. The students follow the family on a yearly basis from their first year to their internship period.
With regards to promoting health and preventing diseases, Maj Gen Surender Mohan asserts, "This develops a trustworthy and long-lasting relationship with the families which will facilitate health-seeking behaviour and promote the health and prevent diseases. The students are trained in developing communication and social skills."
Nurturing creativity and inspiring innovation are two key elements of successful education. Merely storing up the mind with facts and data is not enough. ACMS motivates that whatever the student has learned must be sharpened with mental acumen to deliver according to the needs of the community.
The learning methods and assessments should encompass all levels of Bloom's taxonomy.
While stating about their approaches to keep students and themselves motivated, Maj Gen Surender Mohan postulates, "We motivate children in conducting research with the guidance of their teachers to publish articles. The college publishes its own official Journaland students are encouraged to submit research with us or with other indexed journals."
"Students are motivated to take part in various academic-related activities like quizzes and symposiums organised by the various medical associations all over the country," he further adds.
After sharing a few motivational tips for the student's bright future, Maj Gen Surender Mohan also shared important advice for future medical aspirants.
Teaching different specialities of medicine is an entirely different form of medical practice. Medical faculty need to be aware of teaching principles and techniques along with the faculty development programmes within and outside the institution.
The principles of andragogy should guide medical educators towards experiential learning, which enhances learner autonomy and makes them responsible for their own learning.
There is a need for alignment of desired learning outcomes, activities and assessments for effective learning.
However, Maj Gen Surender Mohan, while sharing his advice for future aspirants, he mentions, "The learning methods and assessments should encompass all levels of Bloom's taxonomy. It is important to emphasise skills in affective domains. The art of conducting peer learning activities needs to be learnt through hands-on workshops. Classical teaching needs to be modified to Technology-enhanced blended learning."
With the important piece of advice for future medical aspirants, Dean Maj Gen Surender Mohan also enlightens us with the college's most notable achievements.
ACMS students have excelled in university exams when compared with other medical colleges of GGSIP (Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha) University, despite the fact that the ACMS student's NEET merit was comparatively low.
In India Today's Survey 2022, ACMS scored fifth in the top ten Private Medical Colleges with the lowest fee structure.
ACMS again scored fifth in the top ten emerging colleges, and it is the highest scoring college among those established in or after 2000.
The college also ranked twenty-fourth in India's top fifty-three public and private medical colleges.
All these college achievements will ensure a bright future for the medical aspirants, and to retain and achieve more success, Maj Gen Surender Mohan envisions few strategies and approaches ahead.
While imparting knowledge, ACMS has achieved many awards and recognitions, which led the college to the top level and brought more accomplishments. Maj Gen Surender Mohan has enlightened us with the future vision of the college and shares, "We impart knowledge & prepare our youth to cope with the current state of the world. Therefore, the current challenge is not to acquire knowledge, it is more about acquiring Social Skills to help our children overcome the abundant alienation and mistrust we encounter. The major objectives are:Ÿ Promoting the success of collective knowledge.
Ÿ Helping students build their selfawareness.
Ÿ
Emphasis on: -
GT (Small Group Teaching) with increased teacher-student interaction.
AETCOM (Attitude, Ethics and Communication Module).
Extracurricular activities.
Electives help them to identify their area of interest.
Ÿ Encouraging students to get out of their comfort zones."
Walking on the tightropes of human evolution, some things have always been considered a thread that connects humanity with reality and keeps them from going extinct. From the ambitious battle cries at the start of the venture to a child's first cry, everything is connected with the wealthy emotion of care, generosity, and care.
Tiptoes on the thin line of evolution, revolution, war, peace and the continuous cycle. This thread has defined the survival of the fittest concept in human evolution has been curious minds dedicating their lives to saving lives.
But the hospitals we see today have never been the way they are today. Obviously, if you read, observed or even watched the healthcare industry a few years back, you might map a graph, citing the difference between human growth, evolution and transformation of the healthcare industry.
The Early Stages of Cure – Magic!
It is quite impossible to find the roots of the healthcare sector. Various countries and regions worldwide have been the predecessors of this healthcare sector. Some of the early findings have been traced to ancient Greek, the Indian sub-continent, the Amazon, and the indulging records of Native American Indians.
In the early development stages of medicine, options were restricted with the unawareness and very less information available. However, the curious nature of humans allowed them to explore the human body and mother nature in depth.
Hearing this in the modern world might be difficult, but back then, the doctors we know today were known as physicians. Rather than focusing on organs, the study, treatment, and diagnosis were only limited to the physical body.
Though with the very limited information and knowledge available, it was quite difficult for people to treat common diseases. Other than that, there have been evident evidence that supports the theory that the early stages of medicine were a complete journey, the complete guide to human health.
Traditionally, India was a place heavily
blessed with nature and abundant availability of resources. Apart from that being a part of the rich culture, then-modern medicine or western medicine was brought to India by the Portuguese.
With faster results and considerable support from the public, these medical th practices became a norm in the 16 and th 17 centuries. However, it was the discovery of penicillin that changed the face of medicine and the healthcare industry forever.
Further expansion in the medical instruments, equipment and machines enhanced the growth of medical practices while setting the base for modern da medical education and industry.
Furthermore, ever since the beginning of the education system, from the gurukuls to the foundational subjects, the human body, its anatomy and basic medical sciences were included in the holistic curriculum of the youth.
And as the field of medical sciences progressed, the medical education space and practice also progressed simultaneously. Even the further discovery of diseases, disorders and even viruses became a norm in the field of medical sciences.
Supported by the sense of freedom and humanity, the evolution of the medical field and education was evidently seen, observed and explored by many over the years. Being one of the noblest professions considered equal to that of gods, medical education and the medical sector found itself on the verge of making a permanent sector of itself and with the required boost that came towards the end of the second world
war, was about to change the way we see health forever.
Now, as technology was seen as the next big thing, it slowly started to crawl its way into the magical field of medicine and medical sciences. With technology, the detection, diagnosis and prolonged process of healing were brought down by a major margin.
Even education in the medical field evolved and indulged it with easy medicinal practices. Medical education, with the help of technology, took itself to a whole different level.
Today, diagnosing some deadly diseases is not a concern for doctors. However, with the study of new diseases introduced into the world ecosystem, it can be said that the perfect and ideal diagnosis of such diseases can be around in the upcoming years.
Today, medical education in India is a mixed bag of Modern, Western, Vedic, and Ancient medicines and these are studied in that way, respectively. So, it can be said that technology has made medical education much easy and more convenient for students.
Moreover, as researchers and educators are dictating the terms, it can be said that the medical field can break the laws of nature and bring back the dead alive from the grave. Though it has always been like walking on a tightrope, and while modern-day researchers find a way to make humanity immortal, let's enjoy, embrace and instil the values of mortal life.

veryone wants love, care, E affection and attention in their life!
Yet, people desire all emotions more when they have succumbed, and it is also said that medicines don't heal people as much as someone's love and care heal them.
People get all the care and love only from their parents, but to cure someone, proper treatment is also as essential as the love and care of someone. However, when one faces significant illnesses or injuries, parents are not the right people to treat their child; therefore, to heal one, they go to hospitals where they get medicinal treatment along with the doctors' and nurses' same love and care, which parents do for their children.
Healthcare professionals are the saviours of humanity on earth. Having said that, professionals are rigorously trained to save human lives, and those working in the healthcare industry are very privileged to be part of the healthcare.
Most people think that the profession is noble, but there is a lot of hard work in the healthcare industry, and there is not much to explore. Nevertheless, there are many opportunities in the healthcare sector for the young mind, as the industry has constantly been growing around the globe.
And healthcare occupations are predicted to add more jobs than any other occupational group between 2019 and 2029, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The fact alone should keep a potential career in healthcare firmly on one's radar. Indeed, there are other factors to consider while changing careers; you want to locate a position that best suits your requirements and objectives.
Sketching few facts about what things one should consider while working in the healthcare sector are given below:
Earning a Living Money is not everything, but it is undoubtedly a significant consideration when choosing a career. Financial security is a tremendous mental relief, and a good income may help smooth over any less-than-great work-related times.
And the BLS states that the median annual income for technical healthcare occupations, such as registered nurses, doctors, and dental hygienists, was $69,870 as of May 2020, which is good news for anyone looking for work in the healthcare industry. That is much more than all occupations' $41,950.1 median yearly wage.
While earning potential income will undoubtedly vary substantially based on the exact healthcare function, qualified healthcare employees should expect to make a respectable income.
With the changing dimensions of the healthcare sector, the need for professional healthcare workers is also rising. Education in healthcare provides global job opportunities to nurses and doctors, as the industry is consistently expanding. As per the BLS report, the healthcare fields will grow by approximately 2.4 billion new jobs in the healthcare industry during 20192029.
Every one of us seeks a stable career where we get opportunities to grow our skillsets and have fun and happiness at the workplace. The healthcare industry provides the most stabilized employment along with extensive opportunities to grow in the industry. Apart from the opportunities and stabilization, the professionals also enjoy working as they meet various challenges daily; the challenges keep the working spirit alive in the professionals.
Before entering the profession, one has to ensure the hospital's working environment and employee benefits. Medical professionals have to work 24/7 to save a human from their illnesses. It is necessary to prioritize the working conditions of the firms they work for.
It not only applies to healthcare professionals but to every professional, as they need to research the working environment of every organization before joining. Healthy working conditions and benefits will retain the
employees in the organization, resulting in high productivity.
The professional serves the community without any greed, and the medical career is spiritually rewarding. The professionals keep helping the communities and their families; handling patients' and their families' emotions is very difficult.
Whenever a patient comes to the doctor, they come with the hope of recovery and professional ensures that they will save the patient and their families hope. It gives immense professional satisfaction when one patient gets cured after the treatment.
The field of health care is constantly changing. Due to advancements in technology, medicine, and processes, even employees lack in getting advanced knowledge. It assists problem in understanding the new changes in the industry, which leads to criticism of the profession, but with a positive and flexible attitude, you can take criticism in stride and use it to improve.
As we've seen, it's a required field in people's day-to-day existence worldwide. The need for experts in this industry is rising, and there may even be a scarcity, but the career offers many different opportunities.
A healthcare career offers numerous monetary and intangible benefits, despite the upfront time and financial investment required for training. You can reach your goals by planning in advance.
As the world is recovering from the precarious nightmares of the COVID-19 pandemic, global healthcare systems went through a process of instigation to cope and prepare for similar or even worse scenarios. India being an enormous country with more than 1.3 billion people, the healthcare challenges are different from those of other countries of the world.
On the one hand, India has one of the best pools of trained healthcare professionals globally. While, on the other hand, it is still fighting hard for
primary healthcare to breach every nook and corner of the country, several organisations and institutes have been fighting this challenge with honour and grace.
