Abstract:
Objective:To survey the post competency of general practitioners who had completed residency training in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. An online questionnaire survey was conducted among general practitioners, institution leaders and patients from January to February 2021. The participants were selected from 45 general practice residential training bases in the eastern, central and western regions of China by a combination of stratified sampling and proportional random sampling methods. The post competency self-assessment questionnaire was used for the general practitioners, and the competency evaluation questionnaire was used for institution leaders and the patients.Results:A total of 677 valid self-assessment questionnaires were returned from general practitioners, 600 from institution leaders, and 2 579 from patients. The professionalism and humanistic literacy of the self-assessment questionnaire had the highest score (4.41±0.60),and the teaching, learning and research abilities had the lowest score(3.57±0.84). There was no significant difference in the post competency score of general practitioners among different regions ( P>0.05). The highest score of general practitioners′ post competency evaluated by leaders was the professionalism and humanistic literacy (4.64±0.57), and the lowest one was the basic public health service ability (4.31±0.95). The score of professionalism and humanistic ability in the eastern region was significantly higher than that in the central and western regions ( P<0.05). The highest score of general practitioners′ post competency evaluated by patients was the professionalism and humanistic literacy (4.73±0.55), and the lowest score was the basic medical service ability (4.11±1.35). There were significant differences in scores of the ability for basic medical service, ability for basic public health service, ability for interpersonal communication and ability for professionalism and humanistic literacy among different regions ( P<0.05). For institution leaders, 68.2% (409/600) believed that the general practitioners were fully competent for their current jobs, 28.7% (172/600) believed that the general practitioners were basically competent for their current jobs. For patients, 70.5% (1 817/2 579) were very satisfied with the general practitioners′ service, and 27.1% (700/2 579) were basically satisfied with the general practitioners′ service. Conclusions:The competency of general practitioners who had received training in some provinces is basically up to standard, but the basic public health service ability and teaching, learning and research ability need to be improved.
