The Longitudinal Primary Care Program, an innovative curriculum in generalist medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine, has been enhanced by a commitment to fostering good communication among all of its participants (who include more than 350 students and nearly 300 office-based generalist preceptors) and between participants and administrators. The diverse and widely scattered group of preceptors is brought together through orientation sessions and faculty development workshops that stress precepting skills and mentoring. Preceptors are regularly surveyed and the survey data are analyzed to help administrators learn how best to recruit and retain these faculty members. Students' input comes through surveys, small-group meetings, and their participation on committees. Program evaluation data and formal notes from committee meetings are promptly compiled and disseminated. Such efforts to promote good communication among preceptors, students, program administrators, and the medical college have both enhanced the generalist program and encouraged other curricular reforms in the college.
纵向初级保健项目是伊利诺伊大学芝加哥医学院一项创新的全科医学课程，通过致力于促进所有参与者（包括350多名学生和近300名门诊全科医学带教教师）之间以及参与者与管理人员之间的良好沟通而得到加强。通过强调带教技能和指导的入职培训课程和教师发展研讨会，将多样化且分布广泛的带教教师群体聚集在一起。定期对带教教师进行调查，并对调查数据进行分析，以帮助管理人员了解如何最好地招募和留住这些教师。学生的意见通过调查、小组会议以及他们在委员会中的参与来收集。项目评估数据和委员会会议的正式记录会及时整理并分发。这些促进带教教师、学生、项目管理人员和医学院之间良好沟通的努力，既加强了全科医学项目，也鼓励了学院的其他课程改革。
