The enlightenment of German genral physician training system on the clinical education of community general practitioners in China / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

German family physicians practice independently in clinics, and provide primary health care services. General practitioners are a type of specialists. The basis for the self-management of German doctors is the homogeneous medical education in Germany. The new round of medical education reform emphasizes the theory and practical training throughout the entire process of medical education. All medical students in Germany need to go to the clinic for internship and be familiar with primary health care models. Post-graduation education sets rotation plans and assessment standards according to the characteristics of general practice specialties, emphasizes the clinical practice time in the clinics, and urges doctors to continue medical education through the payment of medical insurance. This article draws on the German general practitioner training model, proposes to strengthen the enlightenment of general practice education during the education of undergraduate medical colleges, and strengthen the clinical practice of general practitioners and the construction of general practice training bases, as well as improve the ability of the community physician faculties, in order to provide a reference for the training of general practitioners in China.
