How can we cultivate compound talents who "understand medicine and medicine"?In view of the contradiction between the separation of medicine and pharmacy education that China has faced for a long time, recently, the team led by Professor Li Jun of Anhui Medical University gave the answer to the results of "'Inheritance and Innovation, Pharmaceutical Integration', the Construction and Practice of the Training System of Clinical Pharmacy Professionals in the Past 20 Years".
With the goal of cultivating medical talents who meet the needs of the people's health security, the team reshapes the training program and curriculum system of "understanding medicine and medicine", creates high-quality course resources, cultivates a high-level teaching team, and establishes a "five-in-one" The practice of the teaching system, the innovation of talent training quality evaluation standards and professional quality evaluation standards, make up for the separation of medical and pharmaceutical education blind spots, and cultivate a large number of health promotion as the center, serving the whole life cycle, the whole process of health "understand medicine, good research and good success" of pharmaceutical compound professionals. This achievement won the second prize of the 2022 Higher Education (Undergraduate) National Teaching Achievement Award, which is a vivid epitome of the university's focus on the main battlefield of economic and social development and the cultivation of medical innovative talents urgently needed by the society.
Cultivating high-quality medical talents is the core essence of the university to serve economic and social development, and it is also the due meaning of the construction of a high-level medical university. Gu Jiashan, Secretary of the Party Committee of Anhui Medical University, introduced that in recent years, the school has aimed at strengthening the key direction of health talent training, cultivating new medical talents by opening up the three paths of medical engineering, medical science, and medical culture, optimizing the structure of disciplines, strengthening practical teaching, improving the resource support system, reforming education evaluation methods, promoting the integration of science and education, and accelerating the cultivation of good doctors who adapt to and lead a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, and take on the great task of national rejuvenation.
Structural optimization and quality improvement
Improve the supply capacity of medical talents in short supply
The university is making every effort to lay the foundation for the next hundred years of development of the new medical center (new campus), and will take the construction of the new campus as an opportunity, guided by the needs of the people and healthy development, actively cultivate compound medical talents, and strengthen the connection between talent training and social needs. In May this year, Gu Jiashan went to Suzhou Industrial Park for field research and exchanges, opening the first stop of the school's 2023 "100 Alumni Scientists Visiting Enterprises" activity. Through communication with alumni and alumni enterprises, we can comprehensively understand the talent demand and professional gaps of enterprises and institutions, and provide more information and resource guarantee for the school to optimize the professional structure.
If the gap is in, it will exert force on **. In view of the shortcomings of medical and health talent resources at the grassroots level, the school adheres to the guidance of adapting to the needs of economic and social development, and takes the concept of "big health" and the connotation of the new scientific and technological revolution as the key, and on the basis of continuously expanding the scale of talent training, it has started the adjustment and optimization of discipline and professional settings, and accelerated the transformation and upgrading of talent training mode. The university has strengthened the construction of advantageous disciplines such as clinical medicine and public health, added 13 new undergraduate majors such as big data management and application, intelligent medical engineering, and elderly care service and management, adjusted and suspended the enrollment of 2 majors such as food quality and safety, and concentrated its superior forces to apply for and approve the construction of the first batch of high-level public health schools of the Ministry of Education, so as to accelerate the training of medical and health professionals in short supply in the society.
In order to fill the gap of rural medical professionals at the grassroots level, the university has been recruiting and training free medical students in rural order since 2012. Over the years, the university has trained and delivered more than 600 medical students to primary medical and health institutions in Anhui, distributed in 300 township medical and health institutions in the province. This year, the university has also set up two undergraduate majors in the second batch of undergraduate enrollment in advance, namely clinical medicine rural order-oriented free medical students and stomatology rural order-oriented free medical students. Before getting the admission letter, new students need to sign an employment agreement with the local directional health commission before they can come to the school, and after graduation, they will return to the city and county where the agreement was signed for employment, and the employment destination is the township health center and community health service center, and the service period is 6 years.
Empowerment of scientific and technological innovation
Improve the level of training of innovative medical talents
With the continuous acceleration of the development of medical science and technology, the continuous change of people's health concepts, and the intensification of market diversification demand, medical education has also changed from simply training doctors, medical technicians and medical technicians to cultivating compound medical talents, so that the goal of talent training is more consistent with the direction of economic and social development.
In recent years, the university has been guided by the service and support of ten emerging industries such as biotechnology, biological science, and Internet medical care in Anhui Province, and has taken the construction of new medical science as the starting point, actively connected with major regional strategies, comprehensively strengthened the construction of characteristic disciplines, and focused on the development of characteristic specialties around disciplines, broken the barriers of disciplines and specialties, strengthened the penetration of traditional advantageous disciplines into emerging disciplines, accelerated the cross-integration of multiple disciplines, improved the dynamic adjustment mechanism of disciplines and specialties oriented by social needs and academic contributions, and built a "pre-preventive health care" The "three-phase integration" medical professional cluster of mid-term health care - post-health care - whole-process health management focuses on strengthening the cultivation of compound academic talents with a multidisciplinary background of "medicine + X".
Only continuous innovation to overcome the key core technology of 'stuck neck' is the only way out for scientific and technological development. In 2021, Professor Liang Chaochao and his project team led by the university took the lead in developing a medical-grade wireless intelligent ultra-high-definition endoscopic system in the world after years of joint research, and won the first prize of Anhui Science and Technology Progress Award. At the same time, the "intelligent mobile minimally invasive endoscopic system of human-machine collaboration" jointly developed by the university and Deming Electronics has been exported to more than 40 countries and regions, and has been applied to more than 2,000 medical institutions, becoming a typical representative of the school-enterprise cooperation and medical-industrial integration development of the university in recent years.
The integration of medicine and engineering, medical science, and medical culture, the school continues to explore and move forward on the road of "medicine + X" and "X + medicine", and provides a steady stream of talent support for the development of health and health industry in Anhui Province while promoting the comprehensive improvement of students' knowledge, skills, abilities and quality.
Practical teaching is more effective
Strengthen the support of the medical talent training platform
All directly affiliated hospitals should strengthen exchanges, support each other, complement each other's advantages, actively build a cooperation platform, and strive to build and improve a high-quality health service system covering the whole province, radiating the surrounding areas, and running through the whole life cycle. In August this year, the university wrote the construction of a "high-quality health service system" into the university's charter.
It has always been the reform task and target requirement of the university to do a good job in running the "three hospitals" of hospitals, colleges and research institutes, writing the "two books" of treating diseases and saving people, teaching and educating people, deepening the reform of the system of "integration of hospitals and hospitals", consolidating the main position of talent training in affiliated hospitals, increasing investment in education, improving the education process, doing a good job in practical teaching, doing a good job in clinical master's training and standardized training of residents, and fully transforming the special resource advantages of affiliated hospitals into talent training advantages.
In order to promote the expansion of high-quality medical resources and the balanced layout of the region, in June this year, the groundbreaking ceremony of the Anhui Hospital project of Beijing Anzhen Hospital was held in Hefei. The strong alliance between Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University is a major measure for the state to promote the balanced distribution of high-quality medical resources and effectively alleviate the difficulty and high cost of medical treatment for the masses. "After the completion of the project, it will effectively improve Anhui's ability to diagnose and treat difficult and critical cardiovascular diseases, talent training, and transformation of scientific and technological innovation achievements, which is of great significance to promote the high-quality development of medical education and health in the province and even the Yangtze River Delta. Gu Jiashan said at the groundbreaking ceremony.
The school adheres to the medical talent training concept of "early clinical, multi-clinical, and repeated clinical". In terms of the design of talent training programs, we should build a talent training model that effectively connects undergraduate education, graduate education and standardized training for residents, make overall arrangements for practical teaching courses at all stages, and promote the interconnection and organic integration of undergraduate courses and graduate courses, basic courses and clinical courses, and professional courses and humanistic quality courses.
In terms of the management of practical teaching, clinical teaching and practical Xi are strictly managed, and the basic clinical skills training of students is emphasized at the undergraduate stage, and the standardized training requirements of residents are carried out at the graduate stage, and students at different stages are arranged to go to the affiliated hospitals for clinical Xi and receive standardized training for residents in a planned and batched manner.
In terms of the construction of the evaluation guarantee system, we will accelerate the reform of the examination and evaluation system oriented by practical ability, establish and improve the practical teaching management system and guarantee mechanism, continuously improve students' practical ability and professional quality, and encourage students to devote more energy to participating in practical teaching activities and various skill competitions.
Based on the basic national conditions, closely follow the pulse of the times. "The school has always put the cultivation of medical talents under the 'two overall situations' and considered under the 'great man of the country', constantly thinking about what kind of medical education the party and the country need, what kind of medical talents the people need, and continuing to write a new answer sheet for cultivating good doctors in a big country and serving the national economy and people's livelihood under the proposition of the times of 'building a strong country and what education is'. Lu Xiongwen, vice president of Anhui Medical University, said.
