Abstract:
Longitudinal integrated clerkships (LICs) are effective in promoting careers in rural primary health care environments. This model of training medical professionals involves longer clinical placements of medical students and a different approach to learning which better prepares them for primary health care practice. Stellenbosch University created a LIC in 2011 for this purpose and has trained almost 100 doctors in their yearlong LIC since then. The past 12 years have brought about a lot of learning as this model of training was implemented, developed, and refined to suit the needs of students and the clinical environments.Contribution: Countries across the globe face challenges in recruiting and retaining doctors in rural primary health care environments. Longitudinal integrated clerkships have several educational benefits in addition to increase recruitment and retention of rural doctors, and 12 years of experience have led to a greater understanding regarding implementation and outcomes of an LIC in the South African context.
摘要:
纵向综合职员(LIC)可有效促进农村初级卫生保健环境中的职业发展。这种培训医疗专业人员的模式涉及医学生的更长时间的临床实习和不同的学习方法,可以更好地为初级卫生保健实践做好准备。Stellenbosch大学在2011年为此目的创建了LIC,自那时以来已经培训了近100名医生。在过去的12年中,随着这种培训模式的实施,带来了很多学习,开发,和完善,以适应学生和临床环境的需求。贡献:全球各国在农村初级卫生保健环境中招募和留住医生方面面临挑战。纵向一体化文员除了增加乡村医生的招聘和留用外,还有几个教育方面的好处,和12年的经验使人们对南非LIC的实施和成果有了更多的了解。
