Anaesthesia

My name is Emel Ebru Kilicaslan. I am a 2nd year student of Hamidiye Vocational School of Health Services, Anesthesia Program. Anesthesia Program trains anesthesia technicians in order to help the anesthesiologist in charge of switching off the patients’ consciousness so that they do not feel pain during the surgery. In general, we take courses such as Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, and Terminology. Then we continue our education by taking courses such as First Aid, practice lessons on anesthesia, and Clinical Anesthesia. At the University of Health Sciences, we have laboratories with the capacity to provide basic education. We, as the Anesthesia Program, receive the necessary training in these laboratories. As the Anesthesia Program, we have to do a summer internship for 20 working days in the summer of our 1st year. In order to graduate, we need to complete our internship that summer. When we graduate from this program, we can work in training and research hospitals, public hospitals, private hospitals, and beauty salons. I chose the Anesthesia Program because I was very interested in surgeries. I wanted to see the surgeries up close and I wanted to be one of the people there. That's why I wanted to be an anesthesia technician and chose the Anesthesia Program. I chose the University of Health Sciences because of its high-quality education and because it is a "health" themed university. My biggest goal after graduation is to be appointed to Doctor Siyami Ersek Hospital, which our school arranged and where I am currently doing my internship, and to be one of the technicians there. I think that students who are interested in the field of health, who want to see surgeries, who want to be in operating rooms, will be happy when they choose this department. I think that when they choose this department, they will have a successful and enjoyable student life. I wish success to all candidates who will choose Hamidiye Vocational School of Health Services.
