Koordination von Curricula (Rotationsstellen) und Praxisassistenzstellen

Swiss students and young physicians want a flexible goal-oriented GP training curriculum

“…Most respondents thought regular mentoring should be integrated into the curriculum, which aligns with findings from other studies and evaluations [5,23,30,35]. An unpublished survey of young physicians found over 75% wanted to participate in a mentoring program; two-thirds of young physicians would even pay for such a program [35].…”

“…These programs are very heterogeneous, given the fact, that Switzerland is a federalist country. We then looked at evaluations of those programs, if available [5,19,20]. We extracted recommendations from the literature on postgraduate training [21–25].…”

“…We defined “curriculum” as an institutionalized process of teaching and learning that leads to a specialization. A curriculum may include internships [26], so we added training modules in practices to our model goal-oriented curriculum in general practice (GO-GP) [5,21,27]. GO-GP also included traditional medical teaching (e.g., lectures) and a peer-based learning community that met regularly, participants could see if they had met their learning goals [22,28].…”

“…One strategy has been to expose medical students to the specialty from their first year. Another approach has been to build postgraduate training programs in general practice [5,6]. The postgraduate training period is particularly influential because most young doctors decide to become a GP during that time [7].…”
