Competency Level of last year medical students about Basic Medicine Practices in Medical Education
Abstract
Materials and Method: The final year medical students who completed 9 months of internship during the 2019-2020 academic year constitute the sample group at Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine. The students were asked to self evaluate their competency levels of the BMP stated in NCEP-2020. Self-evaluated competency levels are compared based on receiving in-clinic versus online education. For the analysis of the study chi-squared test is used.
Results: 262 students filled out the questionnaire. The difference between self-evaluated competency levels of specific practices pertaining to Forensic Medicine, Psychiatry, and Obstetrics and Gynecology specialties were found to be statistically significant between the students who completed the clerkships and those who did not (p<0,05). When the total of the skills in NCEP-2020 is reviewed, it is seen that there is a loss of being able to do after graduation about 25%.
Conclusion: The study showed that some of the medical students were not sufficient for primary health care services according to the fundamental medical skills defined in the NCEP-2020. It is necessary to investigate which skills are inadequate and the reasons of the inadequacy. Although the students are feeling confident in many skills, it is noted that making adjustments in the education system, the core education program, and the healthcare system is necessary.
