ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the structure modes of general practice teams in community health care cen-ters in order to provide empirical evidence for the transformation of the community health service mode. Method:Pur-posive sampling was adopted. Twelve community health service centers in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou and Cheng-du, where the transformation of the community health service mode was piloted earlier and representative, were se-lected as the field survey sites. The qualitative method was used to collect the data accompanied by the quantitative method. Results:The structure models of general practice teams could be divided into four types:1) general practi-tioner+nurse+nurse assistant+pharmacist, 2) physician (general practitioner, herbalist physician) +nurse+com-munity volunteers, 3 ) physician ( general practitioner/herbalist physician ) +nurse +assistant +community volun-teers, and 4) general practitioner+nurse+assisting team (professionals of public health and maternal care, etc) +supportive team ( pharmacists, health technician, etc) . Conclusion:The paper verified the common sense conclusion that general practitioners should play an essential role in general practice teamwork. The four general practice team models analyzed above positively contributed to the improvement of efficiency and quality, the relationship between health professionals and patients, the promotion of community participation, and the combination between preventive care and clinical care.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the concerning guarantee mechanisms during the transformation of the com-munity health service mode. Method:Purposive sampling was adopted. Twelve community health service centers in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, and Chengdu, where the transformation of the community health service mode was pi-loted earlier and representative, were selected as the field survey sites. The qualitative method was used to collect da-ta accompanied by the quantitative method. Results: The guarantee mechanisms related to the transformation of the community health service mode could be concluded into four main types:collaboration mechanism, health profession-al training mechanism, incentive mechanism, and policy guarantee mechanism. All of the four mechanisms contribu-ted to the improvement of general teamwork, dual referral systems, and the development of contract and appointment services. Conclusion:During the transformation of the community health service mode, priority strategies include top-down design, health professional training mechanisms, and performance-based incentive mechanism, all of which should be implemented in the future.
