Pre-registration house officer rotations incorporating general practice: does the order of rotation matter?

Abstract:

CONTEXT:In relation to pre-registration house officer (PRHO) rotations incorporating general practice, previous research has recommended that where possible, no PRHO should undertake general practice as the first placement, because of the difficulties encountered. It was recognized that logistically, this could make such schemes almost unworkable. Within the context of a larger qualitative evaluation comparing how 24 PRHOs learned in hospital and general practice settings, the issue of rotation order was explored. METHODS:In-depth semistructured interviews were conducted with the 12 PRHOs who were involved in general practice rotations. They were interviewed at the beginning and end of the PRHO year, and following their return to hospital work after the general practice placement. RESULTS:Each rotation order had both advantages and disadvantages, with no particular rotation order being obviously better or worse for the PRHOs involved. CONCLUSIONS:This small qualitative evaluation has highlighted a number of advantages and disadvantages specific to each rotation order, and makes some practical recommendations to help alleviate the problems encountered. It is important that future evaluations of similar schemes consider this issue, as there are conflicting reports about the significance of the rotation order.
