Over a five-year period 230 senior-level students in medicine, nursing, and pharmacy served in clinics located throughout five rural communities. Students participated in the development of the clinics and in the organization of services that otherwise would not have been delivered. Community-based preceptors helped integrate the students' learning about community processes. The project provided experiential learning and interdisciplinary interactions that were enthusiastically received by the students. Follow-up surveys suggested that the experience reinforced interest in eventual practice in rural areas and in interdisciplinary settings. The project demonstrated that students were able to provide clinical services which were useful and acceptable to the communities and which were supported by local practitioners.
在五年时间里,230名医学、护理和药学专业的高年级学生在五个农村社区的诊所服务。学生们参与了诊所的建设以及原本不会提供的服务的组织工作。以社区为基础的带教老师帮助整合学生对社区流程的学习。该项目提供了体验式学习和跨学科互动,受到了学生们的热烈欢迎。后续调查表明,这段经历增强了学生们在农村地区和跨学科环境中从事最终实践的兴趣。该项目表明,学生能够提供对社区有用且可接受的临床服务,并得到当地从业者的支持。
