The 4th Annual Meeting of ARSPTN 2023 carried the theme “Strategies for Improving Clinical Education Quality in synergy with PTN Hospital and Dental and Oral Hospitals in Services and Research and the Acceleration of Hospital Education Accreditation “. This activity is expected to promote, develop, and advance educational hospitals through the exchange of knowledge, skills, and information among experts in the field of healthcare.
According to Prof. Dr. Nasronudin, Sp.PD., KPTI-FINASIM, the Chairman of ARSPTN, the theme is highly relevant and aligns well with the needs and demands of both national and global communities. Among these demands is the call for the emergence of excellent human resources in the healthcare field. “To achieve this goal, high-quality educational institutions and educational hospitals are necessary, along with educational programs that prioritize quality and excellence. In line with this high-quality education, the provision of services and research, which are integral parts, cannot be separated from each other,” Prof. Nasronudin explained.
