BOARD OF GOVERNORS
IN SUPERSESSION OF MEDICAL COUNCIL OF INDIA
FOREWORD
The Medical Council of India, aware of its responsibilities in creation of trained health manpower, has been engaged for the past few years in
updating the medical curriculum for undergraduates and postgraduates to be in consonance with the changing health needs of the country. The task
of updating and reorganization of the postgr aduate curriculum in nearly 50 broad specialty disciplines to the competency patter n was accomplished
by the Academic Cell of the Council with the help of subject ex perts and members of its Reconciliation Board and have been uplo aded on the Council
Website for use of the medical fraternity. The Council visualized that the I ndian Medical Graduate, at the end of the undergraduate training program, should be able to
recognize "health for all" as a national goal and should be able to fulfill his/her societal obligations towards the reali zation of this goal. To fulfill the
mandate of the undergraduate medical curriculum which is to produce a clinician, who understands and is able to provide preventive, promotive,
curative, palliative and holistic care to his patients, the curri culum must enunciate clearly the competencies the student must be imparted and must
have learnt, with clearly defined teaching-learn ing strategies and effective methods of a ssessment. The student should be trained to effectively
communicate with patients and their relatives in a manner respectful of the patient's preferences, values, beliefs, confidentiality and
privacy and to this purpose, a book on Attitude, Ethics & Communication was prepared by the Medical Council of India; the teaching faculty of
medical colleges have been receiving training on this module since 2015.
