Ophthalmology residents attended a day-long training program designed to teach them about the rehabilitation needs of visually impaired and blind patients. A pretest measuring the participants' knowledge of rehabilitation services and their rehabilitation-oriented activities was administered before the training program and a posttest measuring the same items was administered 6 months after the program. Several of the rehabilitation-oriented measures that participants themselves take with visually impaired and blind patients increased substantially during the 6-month period as did their knowledge of rehabilitation services available in the community. The referrals made for these rehabilitation services and the participants' interactions with allied health professionals who serve visually impaired and blind patients increased only slightly. These findings suggest the need to institutionalize training for residents in the topic of rehabilitation and to allocate time within their schedules for making referrals and working cooperatively with allied health professionals.
眼科住院医师参加了一个为期一天的培训项目，该项目旨在向他们传授视障和失明患者的康复需求。在培训项目之前进行了一项预测试，以测量参与者对康复服务的了解以及他们以康复为导向的活动，在项目结束6个月后进行了一项后测试，测量相同的项目。在这6个月期间，参与者自己对视障和失明患者采取的一些以康复为导向的措施大幅增加，他们对社区中可用康复服务的了解也有所增加。为这些康复服务进行的转诊以及参与者与为视障和失明患者服务的相关健康专业人员的互动仅略有增加。这些发现表明，有必要将住院医师在康复主题方面的培训制度化，并在他们的日程安排中留出时间进行转诊以及与相关健康专业人员合作。
