Abstract | The University of Missouri-Kansas City Medical School uses a healthcare team approach to medical education. As partial evaluation of the approach, this study explored the views held by health professionals concerning their experiences on the team. Their images of the concept of the team itself, their opinions on the educational function of the team, and their views of the team's effects on health-care delivery were investigated through open-ended interviews. Almost all team members felt they were actively involved in educating medical students. They stressed that students gained not only by active learning through clinical experience but also through association with health professionals regularly on the team. Team members cited a seeming lack of instruction in basic science and theoretical concepts as a major educational disadvantage to the team approach. A significant proportion of the team members also felt that the educational function slows the delivery of health care. However, the presence of students and the need to create a learning environment resulted in more conscientious and thorough health-care delivery, according to the team members. These teams are viewed in general as viable mechanisms for medical education and health-care delivery. (Author/LBH) |
