摘要：The regulations regarding the expected conduct of medical students in Shariati hospital’s surgery ward have not been updated to match current day standards. Working hours are always discussed in light of the patient's wellness versus the physician’s fatigue, however, there is no study about the effects of working hours on medical education. Medical students work 8 hours per day and they are encouraged to attend morning classes after finishing their "on-call" shifts. Instead of learning in class, they should study their educational material on their own. “On call" students may remain in the hospital to attend classes. However, no more work should be expected from these students. The working hours should be scheduled to enhance the students’ learning and to strengthen the medical educational environment. The faculty should consider the safety of the students in their policies. Medical students should wear comfortable and appropriate clothing, including white coats. Students should be viewed and treated as members of the surgical team. Students should be asked to prepare and present a 15-minute report in the journal club. Moreover, they should participate in all seminars and educational programs. Finally, medical students have a flexible curriculum in the surgical ward, and these regulation are subject to change according to circumstances.
