title: [Consulting work of local hospital--participation in department without expert physician, and clinical training].
abstract: All of the newly graduated doctors must undergo training in basic clinical abilities in the new clinical training system for physicians. The trainee receives basic laboratory training in the department of laboratory medicine. This training provides an opportunity for the doctor to develop a close relationship with the department of laboratory medicine. As an expert in laboratory medicine, the clinical laboratory technician on staff in the department of laboratory medicine as well as the clinical laboratory physician should be participate in providing this training. Specifically, in a field where there are no available experts, the primary consultation function is important. Moreover, clinical laboratory physicians, as members of a central clinical department, must participate in other hospital activities, for example, auditing hospital infections, blood supply.
