To involve community physicians as medical school faculty, a survey was completed to establish the needs of 64 community physicians participating in a third-year family medicine clerkship. We received 48 responses that indicated issues of practice regulation, training office staff, and local continuing medical education were highest priority needs. The 27 respondents in rural areas placed more emphasis on issues of referral/consultation, recruiting of physician associates, and faculty development. As a result of the survey, The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston has implemented a comprehensive strategy to address the stated needs, with special emphasis on a rural health initiative. This strategy includes a special program for faculty to provide rural practice coverage technical assistance for practice management, a rural communications network, faculty development, and provider recruitment. The goal of this strategy is to continue developing the "medical school without walls."
为让社区医生成为医学院教员，我们开展了一项调查，以确定参与三年级家庭医学实习的64位社区医生的需求。我们收到了48份回复，这些回复表明，执业规范、培训办公室工作人员以及当地继续医学教育等问题是最优先的需求。27位农村地区的受访者更强调转诊/会诊、招聘医师助理以及教员发展等问题。根据调查结果，加尔维斯顿的德克萨斯大学医学分校实施了一项全面战略来满足上述需求，特别强调农村卫生倡议。该战略包括一项针对教员的特别计划，以提供农村执业覆盖、实践管理技术援助、农村通信网络、教员发展以及医疗服务提供者招聘。这一战略的目标是继续发展“无围墙医学院”。
