Family Medicine Postgraduate Clinical Training in two Universities in Egypt: Physicians’ Perspectives
Background: The Family Medicine Specialty was endorsed to fulfill the needs of qualified Primary Health Care providers. Family Medicine Postgraduate Training in Egypt had started in the universities under the umbrella of Medical Colleges in the form of postgraduate trainings and degrees. Objectives: This paper aimed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the different clinical rotations in Family Medicine in relation to the learning outcomes and to assess trainees' satisfaction. Methods: A mixed research exploratory study was conducted among 48 postgraduate family physicians’ candidates in their final year of training from two purposively selected universities (Cairo University and El Menoufia University) during 2019. Results: The attitude of the physicians towards their clinical education experience differs significantly between the Internal Medicine & Pediatrics. About 72% of participants were from Cairo University and 28% from Menoufia. Internal Medicine training was the best perceived among trained physicians. More than (71%) of the physicians believed they understood the common clinical cases. Conclusions: These findings can be useful for the policy makers to emphasize the importance of raising awareness among staff member regarding family practice and to implement the suggested recommendations and deal with obstacles to improve the Family Medicine training in order to provide effective and efficient primary care services.
