背景:自2017年以来,在法国,医学物理学家(MP)最终被法律定义为卫生专业人员,国会议员的角色和责任取决于这些医学职业道德,但国会议员缺乏这方面的初步或持续培训。为了了解我们的同事对这个问题的看法,进行了以下调查。
方法:法国医学物理学会(SFPM)基于2013年AAPM工作,针对其成员和非成员进行了有关道德的网络调查;强调了经验和培训在调查结构中尤为重要。
结果:收集了249个答案,并对缺乏该主题的初始和持续培训表现出明显的担忧。不道德行为的专业经验归因于缺乏培训,资源或能力和敌对的工作环境。
结论:为了解决调查中突出的缺点,SFPM成立了一个专门的自愿工作组,旨在为MP和培训模块制定职业道德守则,以应用于入门级或持续的教育专业发展。
BACKGROUND: Since 2017, in France, medical physicists (MP) are finally defined by law as health professionals and as such, the roles and responsibilities of an MP lean on those medical professional ethics but MPs lack initial or continuing training in this subject. In order to find out how our colleagues feel about this subject, the following survey was conducted.
METHODS: French Society of Medical Physics (SFPM) designed a web survey addressed to its members and non-members concerning ethics based on the 2013 AAPM work; experience and training were highlighted as particularly important within the survey structure.
RESULTS: 249 answers were collected and showed a pronounced concern at the lack of initial and continuous training in this subject. Professional experience of non-ethical behaviour was attributed to the lack of training, resources or competences and hostile work environments.
CONCLUSIONS: To address the shortcomings highlighted in the survey, SFPM has created a dedicated voluntary working group aimed at producing a professional code of ethics for MP and training modules to be applied at entry level or as continuing professional development for education.
