Abstract:
The main purpose of the introductory education programs designed for newly-hired employees at Anjo Kosei Hospital is to acquaint them with basic knowledge to live as members of society. In recent years, our training and development committee has been drawing up and implementing some introductory education programs about hospital regulations and philosophy for the new employees. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of the introductory education programs and the role played by our committee in the programs. Those who signed up for the introductory education programs were the subjects of this study. They were included composed of 154, 140, and 150 new coners in 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. Questionnaire surveys were conducted on them when they completed the programs. The training and development committee encouraged all of the new mployees, belonging to different occupational categories, to attend to the programs. Great emphasis who placed on education of the basic philosophy in our hospital. The surveys found that the education program about how to receive visitors was valuable to them, but they reduced education time about it clearly decreased their satisfaction level. The education program about the safety of medical treatment poorly contributed to their satisfaction even though the education time was extended. Among the programs, experience-oriented education programs, such as the in-house tour, the training of infection control, and the training of customer support, were accepted by them with enough satisfaction. These results suggested that the intervention to each program by the training and development committee is needed to satisfy the new employees by improving each program from an educational point of view.
