Medical internship placement in Uganda: check the official list
Use Ministry of Health notices to verify a placement list and prepare only for the instructions actually published.
The Ministry of Health publishes official placement and shortlist documents. A placement list can change, so candidates should use the Ministry page rather than a copied spreadsheet or a forwarded message.
Find the official placement notice
The Ministry of Health maintains a shortlist page that includes placement lists for medical interns. Search the Ministry page for the current exercise, then download the document from that page and check its publication date.
Match your name, profession and facility only against the official document. If a detail is unclear, use Ministry contact details from the official site rather than a sender in a group chat.
Prepare for the facility, not a rumour
Follow the placement notice and the receiving facility's official instructions for reporting, documents and dates. A list is not a reason to pay someone for confirmation or a change of station.
Keep qualifications and identification secure. Bring originals only when the official instruction asks for them, and retain copies of each document you hand over.
