System of actions that favor the training of second degree specialists in Family Medicine

Introduction: the National Health System (SNS) aspires for professional practice to be developed on the basis of specialized training.Objective: to design a system of actions that contributes to the improvement of the training of second degree specialists in Family Medicine, in the province of Guantánamo, from January to December 2025. Methods: a qualitative descriptive investigation was carried out in postgraduate education. The population consisted of 611 first-degree specialists in family medicine with three or more years' experience. The sample was 127 by simple random non-probabilistic method, 15 experts and 13 managers and teaching staff. The following theoretical methods were used: analysis-synthesis for the fundamentals and definitions related to the subject, specialized documentary review; registration of second degree specialists; induction-deduction for the determination of the specificities of second degree training. Empirical methods: surveys through questionnaires and group interviews. Variable: system of actions in four stages. Results: specific actions with objectives were designed, after identifying strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats. The actions responded to the diagnosis of the current situation of second degree specialists in General Comprehensive Medicine, socialization of the Regulations for obtaining the Second Degree in Health Sciences specialties, methodological guidelines, as well as indicators for evaluation. Conclusions: the proposed system of actions constitutes a tool for the preparation of first-degree specialists for second-degree training in the specialty of Family Medicine.

Abstract

Introduction: the National Health System (SNS) aspires for professional practice to be developed on the basis of specialized training.Objective: to design a system of actions that contributes to the improvement of the training of second degree specialists in Family Medicine, in the province of Guantánamo, from January to December 2025. Methods: a qualitative descriptive investigation was carried out in postgraduate education. The population consisted of 611 first-degree specialists in family medicine with three or more years' experience. The sample was 127 by simple random non-probabilistic method, 15 experts and 13 managers and teaching staff. The following theoretical methods were used: analysis-synthesis for the fundamentals and definitions related to the subject, specialized documentary review; registration of second degree specialists; induction-deduction for the determination of the specificities of second degree training. Empirical methods: surveys through questionnaires and group interviews. Variable: system of actions in four stages. Results: specific actions with objectives were designed, after identifying strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats. The actions responded to the diagnosis of the current situation of second degree specialists in General Comprehensive Medicine, socialization of the Regulations for obtaining the Second Degree in Health Sciences specialties, methodological guidelines, as well as indicators for evaluation.
