Abstract:
Objective To find out about the current state of and need for general practice training in communities so as to provide basis for the formulation of relevant training strategies and methods. Methods A qualitative and quantitative investigation was made on the state of and need for general practice training at the community based health services centers or stations in the 3 cities of Chengdu, Shenyang and Shanghai. Results Of the 171 physicians surveyed, 39.8% once received general practice training; of the 162 nursing personnel surveyed, 12.3% once received general practice training; of the 67 preventive healthcare personnel surveyed, 35.8% once received general practice training. While the medical personnel who once received general practice training did not think highly of the training result, they did have high demands for general practice training. Conclusion It is suggested that centers for training general practitioners be established, training of community health services personnel strengthened, and their quality improved.
