This study assessed family medicine residents' attitudes toward community-oriented primary care (COPC) and its principles. While the curriculum didn't significantly alter overall attitudes, residents identified funding and practicality as key COPC barriers.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Family Medicine
  • Public Health

Background:

  • A new Community-Oriented Primary Care (COPC) curriculum was implemented for first-year family medicine residents.
  • The curriculum aimed to teach community-oriented principles of family medicine.
  • Attitudinal changes regarding COPC were a key focus of the study.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze and summarize attitude changes in residents exposed to a COPC curriculum.
  • To compare attitudinal changes between residents in the program and control groups.
  • To identify specific factors influencing resident attitudes towards COPC.

Main Methods:

  • A quasi-experimental design was employed.
  • A 20-item questionnaire assessed attitudes pre- and post-intervention.

  • Qualitative data were gathered through focus group sessions.

    • Main Results:

    • The questionnaire demonstrated good reliability (alpha = 0.8).
    • No significant overall attitude differences were found between the study and control groups.
    • Residents expressed concerns about funding and practicality in applying COPC, identified through both surveys and focus groups.

    Conclusions:

    • Qualitative findings supported survey results, highlighting practical barriers to COPC implementation.
    • The study informed the ongoing evolution of the COPC curriculum.
    • Longitudinal research on post-residency COPC attitudes and practices is recommended.
