Abstract:
Objective:To understand the current status of the standardized construction of the health system in colleges and universities in Guangdong Province, so as to provide recommendations for promoting its standardized construction.
Methods:From October to November 2023, a random digital table method combined with a questionnaire survey and one site investigation were used to investigate the basic information of school medical institutions, the construction situation of school medical institutions, the service provision of school medical institutions, the work of infectious disease prevention and control, and health education in 281 branches of 169 colleges and universities across 21 cities in Guangdong Province.
Results:Among the 281 branches of colleges in Guangdong Province, 264 (94.0%) had school medical institutions. Among those, 88 (33.3%) had a preventive health care department, and 35 (13.5%) had one office for health education research. There were a total of 2 950 health professionals in school medical institutions, with 988 being regular staff members, 372 (12.6%) of whom hold senior titles. A total of 190 (73.4%) branches conducted annual infectious disease prevention and control health education for faculty, 219 (84.6%) branches conducted annual health education for students with at least 1 hour of instruction, 109 (42.1%) branches offered health education courses, and 106 (40.9%) branches established health education resources.
Conclusion:The construction of health system in colleges and universities in Guangdong Province is becoming more complete, but there are still issues such as unclear functional positioning of school health related departments and personnel, a weak team of school health professionals, and insufficient investment in health education.
