Abstract

Present manuscript described a case report of medical education humanitarian aid provided Ukrainian medical students visiting Juntendo Shizuoka Hospital. Three female Ukrainian medical students visited Juntendo Shizuoka Hospital from August 8 to 12, 2022. The week’s schedule was as follows: 1) the students participated in a morning conference, where they encountered new outpatients who were being treated by the physician on duty and discussed the treatment plan for inpatients; 2) the students participated in rounds for the inpatients; 3) the students visited the emergency room (ER) to assist in clinical practice for a variety of outpatients; and 4) the students participated in daily mini-lectures. Through their visit to our department, the students learned of the importance of clinical programs and being team members, how to behave as part of a team, how to deliver quality care for critically ill patients, how to assess the severity of a patient’s condition and how to triage patients in the ER. Afterward, two out of the three students obtained their medical licenses and have begun working as physicians in Ukraine and Japan. Based on the university motto “Japanese term [Jin] – I exist as you exist,” Juntendo University will continue to support the leaders of tomorrow in their ongoing studies.
