Tiivistelmä
The goal of this paper is to study the collaboration possibilities between Russia and Finland in the field of professional training of highly-skilled medical professionals.
With this objective in mind, the contemporary collaboration between Russia and Finland in medicine is being analyzed. As a result, it has been established that this collaboration is rather poorly organized today and is limited to separate internships and visits of Russian doctors to the Finnish hospitals. At the same time, such collaboration seems to be quite promising due to the highly developed healthcare system and the training system for medical staff in Finland.
At the next stage of this research, the possibility of implementing this collaboration between Russia and Finland in the field of training medical professionals is studied. It has been demonstrated that Russian doctors are highly interested in foreign internships and are willing to satisfy all requirements of the host party. However, insufficient knowledge of the English language proved to be the main obstacle. At the end of this research stage, a group of Russian doctors has been formed, who were ready to have a business-visit to hospitals in Finland.
As a result of the undertaken research, certain suggestions have been elaborated on establishing and extending collaboration between Russia and Finland in the field of professional training of highly-skilled medical professionals. Mentioned suggestions include the methods of selection of most suitable candidates for professional trainings and the developed proposals for internships’ content. Elaborated suggestions also include recommendation for preparation stage and guidance stage during the process of internship, system of Russian specialists’ evaluation after their internship in Finland is completed.
