Since 2012, the Besrour Centre for Global Family Medicine at the College of Family Physician of Canada has brought together its partners from the Americas annually, to reflect on the evolution of Family Medicine on the continent since Alma-Ata, and to look forward to future challenges. Family doctors are but one element of a strong health system. Family Medicine provides key ingredients to respond to population health needs especially as countries move through the epidemiological transition to face larger burdens of chronic disease and multimorbidity. In this paper, we provide a high-level overview of the state of Family Medicine on the continent. We then analyze trends in the education of family physicians to face this changing landscape, including the emphasis on the leader role of future family physicians. Postgraduate programs in Family Medicine in the Americas are placing increasing emphasis on teaching collaborative care in view of creating truly interdisciplinary health teams for the benefit of patients.
自 2012 年以来，加拿大家庭医生学院的 Besrour 全球家庭医学中心每年都会召集其来自美洲的合作伙伴，反思自阿拉木图以来该大陆家庭医学的发展，并展望未来的挑战。家庭医生只是一个强大的卫生系统的一个组成部分。家庭医学提供了应对人口健康需求的关键要素，特别是随着各国从传染病向慢性病和多种疾病负担更大的转变。在本文中，我们提供了该大陆家庭医学状况的高级概述。然后，我们分析了家庭医生教育以应对这种变化的趋势，包括对未来家庭医生领导作用的重视。鉴于为了造福患者而创建真正的跨学科卫生团队，美洲的家庭医学研究生课程越来越重视教授协作式护理。
