The purpose of this article is 1) to present the historical context and rationale for competency-based pain management education; and 2) to suggest learning tools that faculty might apply into their teachings and their institutions' pre-licensure curricula for promoting conceptual learning based on competency-based pain management education.
Based on the well-documented need to improve the competency of health care professionals in pain assessment and management, an interprofessional group of health care providers collaborated and then convened in August 2012 to develop core competencies for pain management for the pre-licensure programs of study across health care disciplines. This interprofessional group of pain educators achieved consensus on a common set of pain-related competencies intended to be implemented across a variety of pre-licensure professional programs.
A group of the interprofessional faculty, who participated in the development of the core competencies for pain management, provides a follow-up of how to implement learning tools within teaching and curricula, based on competency education in pre-licensure health care.
Broad questions about how to incorporate competencies into pre-licensure curricula, for all health provider pre-licensure programs, including how to assess competency across individuals and how to teach in ways that emphasize the demonstration of conceptual learning, remain unanswered. This article reviews how the use of competencies creates historical context for a shift from teaching to learning and concludes with suggestions and exemplars in applying core competencies for pain management in pre-licensure programs.
本文旨在:1)介绍基于能力的疼痛管理教育的历史背景和基本原理;2)推荐一些学习工具,教师可将其应用于教学以及所在机构的执照前课程中,以促进基于能力的疼痛管理教育的概念学习。
鉴于提高医护专业人员疼痛评估和管理能力的需求已有充分记录,一个跨专业的医护人员团队展开合作,并于2012年8月召开会议,为各医护学科的执照前学习课程制定疼痛管理的核心能力。这个跨专业的疼痛教育工作者团队就一套通用的疼痛相关能力达成了共识,这些能力旨在应用于各种执照前专业课程。
一群参与制定疼痛管理核心能力的跨专业教师,基于执照前医护教育中的能力教育,对如何在教学和课程中实施学习工具进行了跟进。
关于如何将能力纳入所有医护人员执照前课程的广泛问题,包括如何评估个体的能力以及如何以强调概念学习展示的方式进行教学,仍然没有答案。本文回顾了能力的使用如何为从教学向学习的转变创造历史背景,并以在执照前课程中应用疼痛管理核心能力的建议和示例作为结尾。
