Exploration of Joint Education between General Practice Bases and Communities in Cultivating Outpatient Diagnosis and Treatment Abilities of General Practice Interns

Objective: To explore the effectiveness evaluation of joint teaching between general practice bases and communities in cultivating the outpatient diagnosis and treatment abilities of general practice interns.Method: A total of 49 general practice interns who interned at our hospital's community hospital from January 2024 to June 2024 were selected as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into a control group (solely taught by community teachers) and an observation group (jointly taught by general practice bases and community teachers) using a random number table method.The Mini CEX scoring scale was used to evaluate the two groups before and after the internship, and theoretical and skill tests were conducted on the two groups of students at the end of the internship.At the same time, a satisfaction survey was conducted on the observation group to understand the teaching effect.Results: Before the internship, there was no significant difference in the scores of the 7 items on the Mini CEX scoring table between the two groups.After the internship, compared with the control group, the interns in the observation group scored significantly higher in seven aspects including clinical reception, physical examination, humanities medicine, clinical diagnosis, health consultation, organizational effectiveness, and overall evaluation, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);After the internship, in terms of skill exam scores, the observation group scored higher than the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05), and the satisfaction evaluation score of the observation group was also higher than that of the control group.Conclusion: Joint teaching between general practice bases and communities can improve the outpatient diagnosis and treatment abilities of general practice interns.
