**Rural allowance:** Yes **Doctors Quarters:** - Needs some TLC but it’s cheap, close to work and a nice vibe, almost everyone stayed there. - You will either be placed in a 4 bedroom house or 2 bedroom apartment. I stayed in the house and it was in fair condition. - Basically just assume that there aren’t any doctors quarters. There’s been a huge issue with safety and security lately- being broken into and stuff being stolen. There’s also been some issues with electricity bill. **Academics:** - More focused on skills. - Every Friday we have academic meetings with all the interns. We also get rotational tutorials in between. **Supervision:** - Usually available. - Always available. - Mostly MO supervision. - It depends on the department and senior doctors you are working with. **Clinical Exposure:** - You won’t find a hospital with better clinical exposure. - You can do a lot if you want to. Everyone is keen on you learning how to do things by yourself. - You are allowed to do as much as you offer yourself. **Social Scene:** - A close knit hospital community, good support system and great friends. - Nothing to do locally. At least there’s a Woolworths food. Clarens is also not too far. **Additional Comments:** - Very hands-on internship program in a fairly quiet hospital compared to bigger places. Get to do a lot if you put in some effort. 🗨_ **Please contribute to this conversation by replying to this topic.** _
