Primary care physicians in public and private sectors perceive different learning needs.

Abstract:

:We compared the perceived learning needs of primary care physicians from the public and private sectors who responded to a questionnaire before taking educational courses in Family Medicine. They rated their perceived learning needs on 71 items of clinical practices and practice management on a scale of 1-10. The ratings of their learning needs were closely related to the perceived needs of their daily work. The private physicians gave higher ratings to most items. Both groups of physicians shared similar least-preferred items (e.g. suturing, plastering, taking Pap smears) but had very different most-preferred ones. Public physicians wished to improve their care of individual patients (e.g. skin, eye, ear-nose-throat problems). Private physicians were more concerned with professional development to improve their practice (e.g. audits, counselling, adult learning). Organizers of educational programmes should assess and discuss with physicians their expected learning needs at the planning stage of a programme.
