RESUMO
As an important part of the spiritual pedigree of the Communist Party of China, the "westward relocation spirit" has profound theoretical value and practical significance for the ideological and political education and career planning of contemporary medical students. Therefore, through detailed interpretation of the educational value of the "westward relocation spirit", this paper analyzed the inheritance path of the "westward relocation spirit" from the four levels of state, society, schools and individuals, in order to cultivate medical students to form a correct grass-roots employment consciousness, and coordinate the contradiction between social development and personal needs. It provides a clear direction for shaping the "new successor of westward relocation" under the command of the Party and comprehensively improving the modernization of medical students’ service at the grass-roots level.
