Abstract:
Objective:To explore the competency for the assistant general practitioners in China to provide theoretical support for the construction of the post competence model of assistant general practitioners and training and evaluation of assistant general practitioners.Methods:During January 22 to June 18, 2019, Using snowball sampling method and behavioral event interviews, 23 general practitioners and assistant general practitioners were interviewed in China, including 14 general practitioners in the superior performance group and 9 assistant general practitioners in the average performance group. The interview contents were coded and analyzed, and the statistical methods of t test and rank sum test of two independent samples were used to screen competency characteristics and construct the competence model of assistant general practitioners.Results:The total classification consistency and the total coding reliability coefficient was respectively 0.79, 0.87. 59 competency characteristics of assistant general practitioners were obtained including 3 differentiated competency characteristics "Understanding the medical and health system and related policies", "Critical thinking skills" and "General practitioner clinical thinking" and 10 baseline competency characteristics. There was no statistically significant difference between the average performance group and the superior performance group in the total frequency of competency [(29.4±12.7) times to (23.4±7.0) times, t=1.27, P=0.22]. Conclusion:The preliminary competency characteristics of assistant general practitioners have good reliability and can provide references for further exploration of the competency model.
