Summary and optimization for standardized training of general practitioners in the pediatric department

Abstract

As a powerful reserve force for primary care institutions, general practitioners (GPs) undergoing standardized training will be essential to solve the pediatric problems of first visit to primary medical institutions and coordinated care delivery system in the future, which puts forward new requirements for the training of post competencies of GPs. However, the training and evaluating systems for GPs in Pediatric Department still need further exploration. This article tried to summarize the two-month rotating arrangement and its advantages for GPs in Pediatric Department of a general hospital. Based on the forgotten theoretical knowledge, superficial understanding of the diseases and individual teachers' poor teaching motivation, this article suggested reinforcing the theoretical basis of GPs through exploring multiple learning channels and increasing self-learning enthusiasm, strengthening the training and rewarding system of teachers to promote the specialist-GPs teaching, as well as promoting the set-up of Department of General Practice and taking the advantage of key disciplines in teaching hospitals to develop characteristic teaching model of general practice.
