Introduction

"The potential of the caterpillar is not achieved by,
by giving it lessons in flight, but by allowing it to develop into butterfly."

Mission Statement

We see that our immediate and wider environment will not get better on its own, therefore

we are doing the best we can, and we believe that

we will get the results that will improve our situation and confirm that we are on the right track.

Within the Faculty of General Medicine of the PTE, we contribute our knowledge and activities to the development and strengthening of the educational service, teaching skills, patient care culture and the overall organisational culture, thus promoting efficient and effective collaboration between departments.

We believe that these can measurably improve the long-term competitiveness of the faculty and contribute to improved employee well-being at work.

Goals

To develop and strengthen the faculty’s teaching service, teaching skills, patient care culture and overall organisational culture. It is hoped that the long-term success of these can measurably improve the faculty’s competitiveness, contribute to better workplace well-being and greater staff engagement.
