CHECK THIS: What Next After Induction into MDCN
CAUSES OF DELAY IN GETTING HOUSEMANSHIP BY DOCTORS
1. This delay hugely emanates from the fact that most fresh graduates do not know how to use the portal, as the portal requires you to be fast, and specific, with a strong internet connection and a laptop, probably.
2. Most people get confused about which hospital to choose—a decision that should have been made earlier.
3. Most of the time, the upload does not start on the date announced, but instead a day before the date. The upload does not occur on a specific day of the week; instead, hospitals are sometimes uploaded on a weekend, unannounced.
4. Upload can occur with just a few hospitals, leading to limited choice, and sometimes not being able to select a particular hospital.
5. Many doctors have login issues on the day of the upload, and they lose the chance of getting housemanship.
6. On the day of the upload, some alternative URL starts to fly around, different from the official URL, which leads to an ambush of those stuck with the not-working URL.
7. Some doctors start to make calls about the hospital to choose on the day of upload while browsing through the portal, that’s the wrong time to make those calls.
This is because the upload does not last beyond 30 minutes depending on the number of hospitals uploaded, whether it was uploaded at the odd time the general interest of doctors in the hospitals uploaded and the location.
How to Create an Account on the Housemanship Portal
1. Get ready your folio number, which is a 6-digit unique number that will be issued to you by MDCN.
2. Open any browser on your phone or laptop (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, puffing, Brave)

8. Ideally, use the same email as that used in your MDCN portal account or a different one.
9. Make sure to use a password that you can easily remember and save your login in the browser. and avoid special characters like &, instead use @
10. Fill in all details correctly as you cannot change them later.

HOW TO KNOW THE DAY THAT HOSPITALS WILL BE UPLOADED
There are two or more ways to know the day of the upload:
1. By visiting the site mdcn.gov.ng/recent-news as often as you can, the official notice of the day of the upload will be announced here most times and sometimes done a few hours before the upload, therefore, necessitating checking the site as regularly as possible.
2. By checking the housemanship portal housemanship.mdcn.gov.ng as often as once every day or more, even on weekends.
3. Shortly after the induction of foreign-trained doctors.
4. Through privileged information about the day of upload which might not be officially announced on mdcn.gov.ng/recent-news
HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY SECURE A HOUSEMANSHIP SLOT
CLICK TO WATCH A VIDEO EXPLAINING HOW IT WORKS
Securing a housemanship through the housemanship portal is highly competitive, due
teaming several doctors out there yet to secure a place, medical schools graduating doctors from every part of Nigeria, and foreign-trained doctors coming back in their numbers for licensure and housemanship.
However, It did not stop there; several hospitals in Nigeria do not appear in the portal for selection or rather are not accredited, therefore getting housemanship through the portal is a hassle.
Best Centers for House Job 2024
Here are the most evidence-based methods and tactics to apply;
1. First, you should have done a little research about the hospitals you might wish to work in, so quickly this is the list of hospitals that appear in the portal. It is your duty to Google and check some of these hospitals out.
2. If the news on the site says that the upload would occur today before the close of work, please start checking the site regularly the day before that day.
3. Use both phone and laptop (Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari)
4. log in to the housemanship portal, do not log out.
5. When you are logged in, in your browser URL space you will see housemanship.mdcn.gov.ng/main/dashboard copy that and keep it on your phone or laptop.
6. When you are having challenges logging in or the site showing “maintenance”. Go to a new tap in the same browser that you have always used to log in and paste the above (housemanship.mdcn.gov.ng/main/dashboard) that will take you to the dashboard straight, skipping the log-in page.
7. When the hospitals are uploaded, you will see a drop-down in your dashboard with the list of several hospitals depending on how many hospitals were uploaded that day, and also depending on how early you were to the upload.
8. Once you see a hospital click on it ASAP, don’t think “a menu will pop up asking you if you are sure of your choice and that it cannot be changed’ just click yes immediately as every second is very important.
9. When you have successfully selected a hospital, your dashboard will change to show the hospital you were posted to and the month that you were posted. see the image below
Then you can download your posting letter by navigating to >>>>view posting>>>>print posting letter. It is a single-page PDF file.
10. If you are also choosing for a friend, it is advisable to use a different browser entirely, and you must have logged their account in before the day of the upload, else it will be almost impossible due to login issues encountered by many on the day of upload.
Note: You will be given two weeks from the day you were posted to appear in the hospital for documentation and resumption of duty. It is advisable to go as early as you can, to enable you to secure accommodation and settle in before you are posted to a unit.
