determine the degree to which nursing, medical, and dental interns performing social service in Mexico have the professional competencies required to practice the profession.
the results of the general examinations for completion of the undergraduate degree, administered between 2006 and 2008 to students in the nursing, medical, and dentistry programs by the National Center for Higher Education Assessment, were reviewed.
of the 39 824 graduates in the three programs who were tested during the period in question, 12 845 did not exhibit the minimum professional competencies. In nursing, out of the total students tested in the three-year period, 3 765 (30.2%) performed inadequately; in medicine, the figure was 6 704 (32.7%), and in dentistry, 2 376 (34.1%). Notwithstanding, backed by the respective regulations, all them were practicing, or had practiced, as professionals, serving as members of the health team in health institutions (approximately 11% of the Ministry of Health workforce in those professions).
interns are the bedrock of health care for the rural population, but approximately one-third of them lack the basic competencies to practice their profession. It is imperative that they demonstrate professional competence before beginning their social service and that they be closely supervised, both academically and professionally, during their internship.
确定在墨西哥从事社会服务的护理、医学和牙科实习生具备执业所需专业能力的程度。
回顾了2006年至2008年期间由国家高等教育评估中心对护理、医学和牙科学专业学生进行的本科学位综合考试结果。
在所考查期间接受测试的这三个专业的39824名毕业生中，有12845人未展现出最低专业能力。在护理专业方面，在三年期间接受测试的所有学生中，有3765人（30.2%）表现不达标；医学专业方面，这一数字为6704人（32.7%），牙科学专业方面为2376人（34.1%）。尽管如此，依据各自的规定，他们所有人都在医疗机构作为卫生团队成员执业或曾执业过（约占卫生部这些专业劳动力的11%）。
实习生是农村人口医疗保健的基石，但其中约三分之一的人缺乏执业的基本能力。他们在开始社会服务之前必须证明具备专业能力，并且在实习期间必须在学术和专业方面受到密切监督。
