根据《世界残疾问题报告》,世界各地的医生普遍缺乏照顾残疾人的培训,因此经常影响他们的保健经验和健康结果。同样,许多美国医生在为残疾人提供护理的关键方面也没有受过培训,这可能导致了他们在护理方面的差异。认识到这些不足,美国医学教育者开始培养与残疾患者护理相关的受训人员的核心能力,包括了解患者对其生活质量的看法以及提供以患者为中心的护理的技能。让今天的医生,即使是出于善意,保留对未来医生设计残疾相关培训项目的控制权,可能会错过同情和有效地照顾残疾人的关键问题。让残疾人参与确定培训需求和实施未来医生的课程,可能为确保他们有能力为残疾人提供病人式护理提供重要机会。(C) 2012爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
According to the World Report on Disability, physicians worldwide generally lack training about caring for persons with disabilities, thus frequently compromising their health care experiences and health outcomes. Many U. S. physicians are similarly untrained about critical aspects of providing care to persons with disabilities, perhaps contributing to disparities in their care. Recognizing these inadequacies, U. S. medical educators are beginning to develop core competencies for trainees relating to the care of patients with disabilities, including understanding patients' perceptions of their quality of life and skills in providing patient-centered care. Having today's physicians, even when genuinely well-intentioned, retain control over designing disability-related training programs for future doctors may miss critical issues in caring empathically and effectively for persons with disabilities. Involving persons with disabilities in identifying training needs and implementing curricula for future physicians may offer important opportunities for ensuring their competency to provide patient-entered care to persons with disabilities.
