Introduction: Nutrition leaders surmised graduate medical nutrition education was not well addressed because most medical and surgical specialties have insufficient resources to teach current nutrition practice. A needs assessment survey was constructed to determine resources and commitment for nutrition education from U.S. graduate medical educators to address this problem. Methods: An online survey of 36 questions was sent to 495 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Program Directors in anesthesia, family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, and general surgery. Demographics, resources, and open‐ended questions were included. There was a 14% response rate (72 programs), consistent with similar studies on the topic. Results: Most (80%) of the program directors responding were from primary care programs, the rest surgical (17%) or anesthesia (3%). Program directors themselves lacked knowledge of nutrition. While some form of nutrition education was provided at 78% of programs, only 26% had a formal curriculum and physicians served as faculty at only 53%. Sixteen programs had no identifiable expert in nutrition and 10 programs stated that no nutrition training was provided. Training was variable, ranging from an hour of lecture to a month‐long rotation. Seventy‐seven percent of program directors stated that the required educational goals in nutrition were not met. The majority felt an advanced course in clinical nutrition should be required of residents now or in the future. Conclusions: Nutrition education in current graduate medical education is poor. Most programs lack the expertise or time commitment to teach a formal course but recognize the need to meet educational requirements. A broad‐based, diverse universal program is needed for training in nutrition during residency. 相似文献

The current status of training in human sexuality is relevant to all health care professionals. The purpose of the current study was to determine the extent of sexuality training offered in psychiatric residency programs. The training directors of psychiatry residencies were surveyed with regard to the number of expert faculty in sexuality training as well as resident exposure to seven related curricular areas. Of the 69 respondents, the majority reported expert faculty in sexual dysfunctions, sex therapy, therapy with gay/lesbian patients, and HIV/AIDS. For each sexuality topic, approximately 80% of programs reported curricula offerings through either didactics or clinical rotations. For didactics, most topics were presented in the context of a broader course. With the exception of HIV/AIDS, it was rare for programs to offer a clinical rotation involving sexuality issues. In conclusion, the majority of training programs in psychiatry provide curriculum offerings in sexuality training, primarily through didactic education. Results are discussed with regard to comparison to training in professional psychology and the need for assessment of sexuality training in health care professions generally. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study determined the perceived needs and curriculum recommendations for nutrition education, and expected competencies in nutrition of graduates, of predoctoral dental, physician assistant, nurse practitioner, and midwifery programs. SUBJECTS: Surveys were mailed to all dental schools (n = 54) and physician assistant (n = 95), nurse practitioner (n = 150), and certified nurse midwifery programs (n = 42) in the United States. Surveys were addressed to the program directors of physician assistant, nurse practitioner, and certified nurse midwifery programs and the associate or assistant dean of academic affairs of dental schools. DESIGN: A 4-page survey was designed and pilot-tested. The survey included questions on respondents perceptions of and recommendations for their programs in nutrition education and expected nutrition competence level of their graduates. A reminder postcard was mailed 2 weeks after the initial mailing to nonrespondents; a second survey was mailed to nonrespondents 1 month after the postcard mailing. STATISTICAL ANALYSES: Data were analyzed using JMP-IN software. Frequencies, and chi 2 analyses, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Pearson chi 2 test. RESULTS: The overall response rate was 80.7% (n = 276). Perceived needs for competence in nutrition varied by respondents. Most of the physician assistant nurse midwifery, and nurse practitioner program directors had similar perceptions of graduates' competence in nutrition. Dental school academic administrators differed significantly from the program directors about the perceived need for knowing how to counsel on a modified diet and how and when to refer to a registered dietitian. Time was the most important factor that would enhance provision of nutrition education in the programs. Computer-based programs were the most frequently requested education tool to enhance nutrition education. APPLICATIONS/CONCLUSIONS: The disciplines agreed that graduates of dental schools and physician assistant, nurse practitioner, and nurse midwifery programs need some level of competence in nutrition relative to their discipline. Registered dietitians involved in health professions education can play an active role in developing practice-based, time-sensitive, and flexible strategies for nutrition education of these health professions groups. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to establish a national baseline regarding the prevalence of training of family practice residents regarding firearm safety counseling. A national survey of the residency directors at the 420 accredited family practice residency programs in the coterminous United States was used to assess the prevalance of training in firearm safety counseling, perceived effectiveness of such training, and perceived barriers to such counseling in residency programs. Program directors were sent a two-page questionnaire on firearm safety counseling activity in their programs and 71% responded. Few residencies (16%) had formal training in firearm safety counseling. The most common perceived barriers were no trained personnel (31%), too many other important issues (31%), not enough time (30%), and lack of educational resources (28%). Patient education materials (57%), video training programs (49%), and a curriculum guide (46%) were identified as resources, that would be most helpful in implementing a firearm safety counseling program. The results showed that formal training in firearm safety counseling is virtually absent from family practice residency training programs. This finding is not surprising given that less than 14% of the directors perceived firearm safety counseling would be effective in reducing firearm-related injuries or deaths and that research on effectiveness of such counseling is very limited. 相似文献

A prospective, observational study was performed to evaluate a pilot orientation curriculum which involved all 7 incoming obstetrics and gynecology residents in June 2012. The objective of this study was to assess how a structured orientation curriculum, which employs an evaluation of baseline competency, affects the confidence of incoming first-year obstetrics and gynecology residents. The curriculum included didactic lectures, online modules, simulation, and mock clinical scenarios. Pre- and post-course surveys were conducted online via SurveyMonkey™ and were sent to all incoming obstetrics and gynecology residents. All seven incoming obstetrics and gynecology residents completed the orientation curriculum which included evaluations at the end of the orientation to assess baseline competency prior to taking part in clinical care. Confidence levels improved in all 27 elements assessed. Statistically significant improvement in confidence levels occurred in cognitive skills such as obstetric emergency management (2.9 vs 3.9, P< .05) and technical skills such as knot tying (3.9 vs. 4.6, P< .05). Certain teaching skills also demonstrated statistically significant improvements. A structured orientation program which improves resident self-confidence levels and demonstrates baseline competencies in certain clinical areas can be valuable for many residency training programs. 相似文献

This article describes the process of developing targeted occupational health services for the health care workers in a women's hospital in Kabul, Afghanistan, as part of a larger project to establish an obstetrics and gynecology residency training program at the facility. The goal was to create a feasible and sustainable program to: (1) address basic health care needs impacting the ability of these Afghan health care workers to optimize learning opportunities; (2) decrease absenteeism due to illness; (3) decrease the likelihood of infectious disease transmission among staff, from staff to patients, and from patients to staff; (4) foster belief that a healthy and safe working environment is a basic right; (5) begin to collect preliminary health status indicators on health care workers in this employee population; and (6) serve as an adaptable program to expand to other Afghan health care workers. 相似文献

Allied health program directors and administrators need to be aware of the costs and benefits of their clinical training programs to assure continued availability of training facilities for students. In a pilot study, program directors and administrators who are members of the National Network of Health Career Programs in Two-year Colleges (NN2) were surveyed concerning items to include in a cost-benefit-analysis tool, intangible and tangible costs and benefits of clinical education programs, and evaluation of a tool to analyze costs and benefits. Surveys were sent to 138 NN2 members, with 58 responding. Clinical sites were primarily in independent hospitals or health care systems. Most programs had preceptor-to-student ratios of 1:1-1:2, with few students being paid for clinical work. The respondents identified costs as staff time, materials and supplies, equipment, and others. Benefits were orientation and recruitment savings; increased professionalism, job satisfaction, and work quality of staff; ability to maintain and upgrade staff skills and knowledge; and student assistance with clinical coverage. Few programs were required to perform cost analysis. Allied health clinical education programs continue to depend on the willingness of health care facilities to accept students for clinical training. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to examine the inclusion and extent of abortion education in accredited nurse practitioner (NP), physician assistant (PA) and certified nurse-midwifery (CNM) programs in the United States. METHODS: In January 2000, a confidential survey requesting information about the curricular inclusion of eight reproductive health topics was mailed to program directors at all 486 accredited NP, PA and CNM programs in the United States. RESULTS: Two hundred two surveys were returned, with a response rate of 42%. Overall, 53% of programs reported didactic instruction on surgical abortion, manual vacuum aspiration or medication abortion and 21% reported including at least one of these three procedures in their routine clinical curriculum. CONCLUSION: Abortion education is deficient in NP, PA and CNM programs in the United States. As integral components of women's health care, abortion, pregnancy options counseling and family planning merit incorporation into routine didactic and clinical education. 相似文献

Previous reports of consultation rates from family practice physicians have included small sample sizes and have suggested higher rates in residency training programs. This report summarizes 9 years of data involving 161 family practice physicians in a residency training program and shows an overall rate of 1.4 percent for outpatient consultations. Otolaryngology, orthopedics, obstetrics/gynecology, and general surgery were the most frequent disciplines consulted. These data are helpful in designing health care systems that include family practice residency programs. 相似文献

Geographic information systems (GIS) mapping technologies have potential to advance public health promotion by mapping regional differences in attributes (e.g., disease burden, environmental exposures, access to health care services) to suggest priorities for public health interventions. Training in GIS for comprehensive cancer control (CCC) has been overlooked. State CCC programs' GIS training needs were assessed by interviewing 49 state CCC directors. A majority perceived a need for GIS training, slightly more than half of state CCC programs had access to geocoded data, and the majority of programs did not require continuing education credits of their staff. CCC directors perceived judging maps and realizing their limitations as important skills and identified epidemiologists, CCC staff, public health officials, policy makers, and cancer coalition members as training audiences. They preferred in-class training sessions that last a few hours to a day. Lessons learned are shared to develop training programs with translatable GIS skills for CCC. 相似文献

Teaching community Oriented Primary Care in a traditional medical school: A two year progress report 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dr. Joanne Klevens MD MPH Camilo Valderrama MD MPH Ofelia Restrepo MPH Pedro Vargas MD Mauricio Casasbuenas MD Maria Mercedes Avella MD 《Journal of community health》1992,17(4):231-245
Efforts are being made to extend the practice of Community Oriented Primary Care by reorienting existing health services or restructuring medical education curricula. Nevertheless, changes in education must be simultaneous to changes in health services so that health professionals trained in COPC will find areas to practice COPC. The experience described in this article presents an effort in these two directions. A teaching program was introduced in a traditional medical school curriculum and was extended to six health services by training the directors of the health service as teaching instructors of COPC or closely coordinating actions with the director of the health service. The results of the program show fulfillment of learning objectives and student satisfaction with the program. Evaluations of the development of COPC in the health services involved show modifications in health programs to meet community needs and stronger community leadership and organization. 相似文献

Preventive medicine plays a central role in the reducing the number of deaths due to preventable causes of premature deaths.
General Preventive Medicine Residency programs have not been studied in relation to training in this area. A three-wave mail
survey was conducted with email and telephone follow-ups. The outcome measures were the portion of program directors involved
in training residents on firearm injury prevention issues and their perceived benefits and barriers of training residents
on firearm injury prevention issues. Only 25% of the programs provided formal training on firearm injury prevention. Program
directors who provided formal training perceived significantly higher number of benefits to offering such training than did
directors who did not provide such training but no significant difference was found between the two for number of perceived
barriers. If preventive medicine residency graduates are to play a role in reducing premature morbidity and mortality from
firearms it will require more residencies to offer formal training in this area. The Association for Prevention Teaching and
Research needs to develop guidelines on specific curriculum topics regarding firearm injury prevention. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The role of residency program director is unique in medicine and medical education. Most program directors learn the job through trial and error, with a fortunate few benefiting from the wisdom and experience of their predecessors and mentors. In 1994, the Association of Family Practice Residency Directors (AFPRD) made the development of training and support resources for program directors a top priority. METHODS: With the support of the strategic plan of the AFPRD, the focus on excellence in residency education by the ABFP, and a survey documenting need, the National Institute for Program Director Development (NIPDD) was formed, with its sentinel product, a school for family practice residency directors. RESULTS: A fellowship-format 9-month training program was constructed using a multidimensional educational model. To date, there have been more than 300 participants. The curriculum emphasizes leadership development, resource allocation, a thorough familiarity with regulations and standards, educational options, and personnel management skills. A follow-up survey in 1999 documented an increase in program director tenure and an overall positive impact on family practice residency programs. CONCLUSIONS: Enhanced preparation for the job of residency program director results in a positive impact on both the director and the program. 相似文献

There is periodic support in the mental health literature for increased training opportunities in the area of management and
leadership. The purpose of this study was to verify the need for such training as perceived by state directors of mental health
and mental retardation/developmental disabilities programs and to explore related issues. The results confirmed a perception
of need and provided insights into ways that such training might be sucessfully provided to states. 相似文献

Increasing the quality and quantity of geriatric medicine training for family practice residents is a particular challenge for community-based programs. With support from the John A. Hartford Foundation of New York City, the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) implemented in 1995 a multi-part project to improve the amount and quality of geriatric medicine education received by family practice residents. This report summarizes the initial results of the regional geriatric medicine curriculum retreats for residency directors. The goals of the retreats were to build recognition among the residency directors of the skills that future family physicians will require to be successful providers of primary care to older adults and to allow the residency directors to identify and develop solutions to barriers to improving geriatric medicine training for residents. Forty-six program directors participated in the three retreats between February 2000 and February 2001. The participants represented 52 programs and rural tracks in all geographic regions, small and large programs, and urban and rural settings. The program directors developed a consensus on the geriatric medicine knowledge, skills, and attitudes that should be expected of all family practice residency graduates; developed a list of basic, required educational resources for each family practice residency program; and proposed solutions to common obstacles to successful curriculum development. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo summarize the effects of routine, opt-out abortion and family planning residency training on obstetrics and gynecology (ob-gyn) residents’ clinical skills in uterine evacuation and intentions to provide abortion care after residency.MethodsData from ob-gyn residency programs supported during the first 20 years of the Kenneth J. Ryan Residency Training Program in Abortion and Family Planning were analyzed. Postrotation surveys assessed residents’ training experiences and acquisition of abortion care skills. Residency program director surveys assessed benefits of the training to residents and the academic department from the educators’ perspectives.ResultsA total of 2775 residents in 89 ob-gyn programs completed postrotation surveys for a response rate of 72%. During the rotation, residents – including those who only partially participated – gained exposure to and skills in first- and second-trimester abortion care. Sixty-one percent intended to provide abortion care in their postresidency practice. More than 90% of residency program directors (97.5% response rate) reported that training improved resident competence in abortion and contraception care and 81.3% reported that the training increased their own program's appeal to residency applicants.ConclusionOver 20 years, the Ryan Program has supported programs to integrate abortion training to give ob-gyn residents the skills and inspiration to provide comprehensive reproductive health care, including uterine evacuation and abortion care, in future practice. Residency program directors noted that this integrated training meets resident applicants’ expectations.ImplicationsRyan Program residents are trained to competence and are prepared, both clinically and in their professional attitudes, to care for women's reproductive health. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to identify and compare among key stakeholders the factors in graduate health care administration education that are perceived to be important for ranking, or benchmarking, based on the opinions of those stakeholders, i.e., program directors, faculty, graduate students, and accrediting agency commissioners. We used an original survey to obtain stakeholders' perceptions and opinions about important process and outcome measures. We sent it to all ACEHSA-accredited graduate health care administration programs in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico; to full-time faculty members in each program; to three current graduate students in each program, and to all ACEHSA commissioners. We performed frequency of responses, Analysis of Variances (ANOVA) tests, and Dunnett T3 tests. A response rate of 32 percent (n = 156) was achieved for all stakeholders. A total of 67 percent of all respondents reported that benchmarking graduate health care administration programs was important. The study results revealed a significant difference between populations on the importance of evaluating certain process and outcome measures related to curriculum, research, student characteristics, and resources. However, most of the stakeholders reported that curriculum, faculty, and graduate student performance were the key quality indicators of a program. The results of this study provide preliminary information for health care administration programs to begin to develop an educational benchmarking effort. 相似文献

Maintaining a high-quality curriculum for family practice residency training in obstetrics has become increasingly difficult. In 1984 the faculty of the University of Vermont Department of Family Practice needed to upgrade its obstetric curriculum in a community where family practice obstetrics was nonexistent. The key steps to a new curriculum included the recruitment of family practice faculty with experience in obstetrics, expanded communication with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the development of baseline attending privileges in family practice obstetrics, the formation of educational tracks for residents, and the promotion of chart audits. Also important were faculty role modeling, intradepartmental meetings, intensive elective rotations, and community education. This case report of program development in family practice obstetrics may serve as a model to help other residency programs. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to establish development priorities, ideal workload and performance levels, and preferred faculty development activities for new faculty in professional-level physical therapist education programs. A preliminary questionnaire was sent to 183 directors of these programs to identify new faculty and their program directors. Eighty-five new faculty and 79 of their program directors were identified and sent comparable surveys with questions that pertained to the current and ideal teaching, scholarship, and service activities of the new faculty. Results indicated that both new faculty and program directors agreed on ideal workload levels and that workloads for new faculty should shift from teaching to scholarship. New faculty set performance levels that are significantly higher than those identified by their program directors. Development priorities for the new faculty varied from knowledge and skills in instruction as expressed by program directors to scholarship as expressed by new faculty. Individual consultations were the highest preferred faculty development activity reported by both groups. These findings provide direction for the content and delivery method for faculty development activities for new faculty in these and similar education programs. 相似文献
