This paper outlines the development of a medical education programme within the existing programme of the Macmillan Education Centre of the Dorothy House Foundation, Bath, England, between 1989 and 1992. A review of some of the significant contributions to the literature in this area is followed by a description of the initial research that was instrumental in designing these courses. A review of activities of the Centre is reported. A more detailed description of a course specifically designed for family doctors is made. A natural development from that course was one for all disciplines involved in caring for the terminally ill--this is described--along with some of the difficulties of such a method of education. Reference is made to evaluative work undertaken with reporting of initial data and work still in progress. Conclusions are drawn about the nature of such workshops and comment made on the role of facilitation.
本文概述了1989年至1992年间,在英国巴斯多萝西之家基金会麦克米伦教育中心现有项目内开展的医学教育项目。在回顾该领域文献中的一些重要贡献之后,描述了对设计这些课程有重要作用的初步研究。报告了该中心的活动情况。对专门为家庭医生设计的一门课程进行了更详细的描述。该课程自然发展出了一门面向所有参与临终关怀的学科的课程——对此进行了描述——以及这种教育方法存在的一些困难。文中提及了所开展的评估工作,并报告了初始数据以及仍在进行中的工作。得出了关于此类研讨会性质的结论,并对引导的作用进行了评论。
