Exploration and practice of innovative model of ability-oriented training for general practitioners / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore an innovative model of ability-oriented training for general practitioners and to evaluate its implementation effectiveness.Methods:A total of 49 general practitioners who participated in the training in 2015 were selected as the research objects, and they were trained in a new mode with innovative teaching and training system and comprehensive assessment mode as the main content. The results of theoretical examination and self-assessment scores of post competency were compared before and after the training. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test. Results:The theoretical examination results of the first year of training were higher than those before training [(77.23±0.55) scores vs. (69.14±4.63) scores], with significant differences ( t=12.15, P=0.001); and the results of the second year of training were also higher than those of the first year of training [(83.72±0.45) scores vs. (77.23±0.55) scores], with significant differences ( t=8.12, P=0.001). The self-assessment questionnaire showed that there were significant differences in such five abilities of the students' competency as medical knowledge and clinical skills, autonomous learning, interpersonal communication, teamwork, core values and doctor professionalisms through the comparison of systematic training ( t=2.76, 4.53, 12.09, 2.33, 2.40, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The innovative training model for general practitioners is effective, and the practice of the new model could provide reference for continuously improving the training and education of general practitioners in China.
