Since family physicians are often the primary health providers for children residing in rural areas, one might expect family practice residencies to include in their curricula some teaching in regard to the prevention of childhood farm injuries. To assess how family practice residencies are currently responding to childhood farm injuries, the authors undertook a survey of the program directors of the nation's 380 residency programs. Of the 332 returned questionnaires, only three (0.9%) reported any formal instruction in the prevention of childhood farm injuries, despite the fact that 102 programs (30.7%) stated that at least 50% of their graduates practiced in rural communities. In addition to the survey, specific proposals are made regarding what residencies can do to initiate teaching in the prevention of farm injuries in children.
由于家庭医生通常是农村地区儿童的主要健康服务提供者,人们可能会期望家庭医学住院医师培训项目在其课程中纳入一些关于预防儿童农场伤害的教学内容。为了评估家庭医学住院医师培训项目目前对儿童农场伤害的应对情况,作者对全国380个住院医师培训项目的项目主任进行了一项调查。在332份回复的问卷中,只有三份(0.9%)报告了任何关于预防儿童农场伤害的正规教学,尽管有102个项目(30.7%)表示其至少50%的毕业生在农村社区执业。除了这项调查之外,还就住院医师培训项目可以采取哪些措施来开展预防儿童农场伤害的教学提出了具体建议。
