Résumé
During the COVID-19 epidemic period, general practitioners have been actively participating in screening and triage, referrals, follow-up, education and other activities related to disease prevention and control at the grass-roots level. However, there are still some problems: such as unclear of the role of general practitioners in an epidemic setting, inadequate ability to respond to public health emergencies and lack of knowledge of infectious diseases. To meet the challenge of COVID-19 pandemic, with the reference of Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) six core clinical competencies we suggest to improve the standardized general practice residency training in following aspects: to attach importance to infectious disease rotation, to increase the stomatology and nutrition course learning, to strengthen teaching in general practice service model, preventive medicine and medical humanities, to enhance the ability for dealing with public health emergencies, the evidence-based medicine and scientific research ability and doctor-patient communication ability.
