  2. pardon me if this sounds dumb, but how come CRS, with all the pomp of calabar city, have only one hospital for internship? doesn't the general hospital in calabar accept house officers?

  5. Spend More Time with Patients. Increased accuracy and fewer errors to correct means clinicians can spend more time with patients, improving patient satisfaction.

  6. Some culture and beliefs do not allow females to conduct speeches in public; when operating a medical clinic in a particular community, you must get to know how their cultural beliefs and norm are such that it becomes easier to provide interpreting services, failure to do that you may make mistakes that may end up causing medical errors in the medical interpretation.
