Practice and consideration of the "Master-Apprentice" training model in Shanghai medical group assistance to Tibet / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

In order to deal with the shortage of medical talents in Tibet, medical group assistance to Tibet is started as an innovative move in a new era, not only providing high-quality medical resources to Tibet, but also training local medical personnel by drawing on the "Master-Apprentice" model in traditional Chinese medicine. During the past three-year, the Shanghai Medical Team took advantage of medical group assistance to Tibet, enriched the types, methods and contents of teaching and mentoring tasks, and highlighted the role of "experts leading the backbone" and "team leading the team" in the "Master-Apprentice" model. The total amount and quality of local medical talents have thus been significantly improved. On the basis of summarizing experience, this study proposes a number of measures to optimize the current "Master-Apprentice" training model, evaluate the implementation process, and improve the feedback and quality management, so as to speed up the construction of the Tibetan medical talent team.
