Among the educational institutions of the city of Angarsk, in the Irkutsk region, there is an institution of a specialized secondary profile that trains future doctors. This is the Angarsk Medical College. Read the material below about the history of its creation, about directions, about reviews of this university.
Angara Medical College: history
The average special institution of Angarsk, which produces newly minted Hippocrates, is already almost sixty years old - only a couple of years are missing before the full anniversary. The doors of the college opened to students for the first time in 1960. True, then it was not yet a college - but a school. The status of the educational institution was changed quite recently - only five years ago.
The first graduates left the walls of the Angarsk Medical Institute three years after the start of their studies, that is, in 1963. There were fifty-five of them, these medical pioneers. And over the past sixty years, more than seven thousand paramedics, obstetricians, laboratory assistants, nurses and nurses have graduated from the former school.
Currently
TodayAngarsk Medical College (pictured below - students in one of the classrooms) is one of the popular educational institutions of the city on the Angara. It has everything that is required for a full and comfortable mastering of knowledge in modern conditions: a library equipped with equipment and a large assortment of books with a reading room; full multimedia audiences - both small and large, streaming; there are special rooms for practicing skills - they are called "preclinical practice", in such classes students train … no, not on cats, but on dummies and "mummies". Close cooperation has been established for a long time both with public hospitals and with private clinics in the city - future Hippocrates can do practice there, then an internship - and then they are free to come to the same organization to work as a young specialist.
The college hosts many extra-curricular activities, such as student inductions or professional excellence competitions. And Angarsk Medical is also famous for the fact that, in addition to training future specialists, they conduct advanced training courses and professional retraining. At the same time, there are absolutely no age restrictions.
Leadership and educators
For nearly eleven years, the Angarsk Medical College has been headed by a doctor-hygienist and part-time epidemiologist Irina Zaenets. The only medical institution in the city is in safe hands - Irina Vladimirovna is a very experienced physician and leader, and alsoshe is a teacher of the highest category. Before becoming a director, she had already worked at the Angarsk Medical Institute for quite a long time - her total work experience there today is as much as twenty-eight years. Irina Vladimirovna spent most of them as deputy director for educational work.
By the way, about teachers and their categories. Almost all college teachers have the first or highest category, only a few go from the second. A decent part of the teachers, about thirty percent, are former students of the educational institution itself. There are many well-known names among the former teachers of the Angarsk Medical School. So, at one time the writer Inna Leiderman, who survived the horrors of the war, worked here - she was a therapist, head of a department in a hospital. The famous surgeon Vladimir Kobetsky also worked at the college, it is he who is the "father" for several generations of surgeons. And Lyudmila Prusskaya (although she is not a doctor, but a philologist, she taught Russian with literature at the college) is known to all graduates and students by the fact that she worked in one place "from and to" - from the student bench she came to the Angarsk Medical School, from here she left retired a few years ago.
Speci alties
What in the years of opening, what now the Angarsk Medical College has a number of areas in which you can get an education. In general, there are four of them, but in recent years, only two have been recruited - this is nursing and medical care (there were also obstetrics and laboratory diagnostics). Let's talk about each of them in more detail.
Nursing
The one whounaccustomed to this speci alty, will have the profession of nurse or nurse. You can enter here both after the ninth and after the eleventh grade. You will have to study for almost three years - to be more precise, two years and ten months - if the applicant came after the eleventh; if the child has completed only nine classes, then the college will have to spend an extra year.
Probably no need to explain what a nurse is. As a rule, there are fewer nurses - for some reason it is considered that this profession is more suitable for girls than boys. This, of course, is a delusion. The range of activities of a nurse / nurse is extremely wide. In a sense, this person is a doctor's assistant, his assistant, following the orders and prescriptions of the doctor. But the tasks of a nurse / nurse do not end with this alone. As for where a person with such an education can work, the choice is simply huge - from private or municipal clinics and hospitals to schools, kindergartens and sanatoriums.
Medicine
Only yesterday's eleventh graders can enter this speci alty. You need to study here for three years and ten months, at the end you can get the speci alty of a paramedic. Who is a paramedic? This is practically the same as a doctor - only in the countryside. A paramedic cannot be a full-fledged doctor due to a lack of education, but he already has far more skills, knowledge and skills than a nurse or a nurse. By and large, this is a doctor's assistant, his righthand. And the paramedics are the workers of the ambulance.
You need to study at the Angarsk Medical College in any speci alty full-time.
How to act
To enter the Angarsk Medical College, you need to bring an application and the following documents to the admission committee from mid-June to mid-August (but the sooner, the better): 4 photographs, a medical certificate, a document on education (plus a copy) and an identity document (also with a copy).

A medical certificate can be obtained at a polyclinic, it is issued by a therapist after passing through a series of doctors who must conclude that a person is he althy and can study at this institution.
In addition, the applicant will have to pass an entrance test - to write a psychological test. This is done immediately upon submission of documents. As practice shows, this test is not difficult, there are no those who cannot cope with it.
