Aim: The aim of this study was to describe the attitudes, views and solution proposals of family physicians (FPs) about primary healthcare problems of Syrian refugee patients. This study would be the very first study for Turkey that evaluates the attitudes, views and solution proposals of FPs about primary healthcare problems of Syrian refugee patients. Background: Following the anti-regime demonstrations that started in March 2011, the developments in Syria created one of the biggest humanitarian crises in the world and the largest number of asylum seekers continue to be hosted in Turkey. There are some studies evaluating asylum seekers’ access to healthcare services in Europe, and the common result is that refugees have free access to primary healthcare services in most countries; however, they face many obstacles when accessing primary healthcare services. While there are studies in the literature evaluating the situation of access to primary healthcare services from the perspective of asylum seekers; there are few studies evaluating the opinions/views of FPs. Methods: A qualitative methodology informed by the grounded theory was used to guide the research. A total of 20 FPs were interviewed face to face through semi-structured interviews, using 12 questions about their lived experience and views caring of refugee population. Interviews were analysed thematically. Finding: The following themes were revealed: Benefiting from Primary Health Care Services, Benefiting from Rights, Differences Between the Approach/Attitudes of Turkish Citizens and Refugees, Barriers to Healthcare Delivery, Training Needs of Physicians, Solution proposals. FPs reported that there is a need for support in primary care and a need for training them and refugees in this regard and they specified refugee healthcare centres are the best healthcare centres for refugees; however, the number of these and provided services should be increased.
Preklinik dönemde izolasyon kontrol önlemlerinin (İKÖ) anlatılması ve bu konuya önem verilmesi doktor adaylarının riskli meslek hayatları boyunca kendilerini ve hastalarını korumalarını sağlayacaktır. Bu araştırmanın amacı Tıp Fakültesi Dönem 3 öğrencilerinin İKÖ methodları hakkındaki bilgi durumlarının, ilişkili faktörlerin ve eğitim ihtiyacının belirlenmesidir. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Tanımlayıcı nitelikteki araştırmada, TıpFakültesi Dönem 3 öğrencilerinden çalışmaya katılmak isteyen öğrencilere Ekim 2018 -Şubat 2019 tarihleri arasında, genel bilgilerini ve İKÖ konusunda bilgi durumlarını değerlendiren sorulardan oluşan anket, kampüs ortamında uygulandı.BULGULAR: Öğrencilerin %49,3'ü kadın; %50,7 erkekti. İKÖ hakkında hastane ziyaretlerinde bilgilendirme yapılan (p=0,045) ve el hijyeni ve İKÖ ile ilgili eğitim alan (p=0,025) öğrencilerin, el hijyenine dair bilgi ve uygulamaları diğerlerine göre daha doğru bildikleri belirlendi. Hastanede yatma öyküsü bulunan (p=0,014), İKÖ hakkında hastane ziyaretlerinde bilgilendirme yapılan (p=0,017) ve el hijyeni ve İKÖ ile ilgili eğitim alan (p=0,000) öğrencilerin, İKÖ'ye dair bilgi ve uygulamaları diğerlerine göre daha fazla doğru bildiği belirlendi. SONUÇ: Bilgi ve tutumun davranış haline dönüşebilmesi için enfeksiyon kontrolünde başlıca yere sahip olan konularla ilgili eğitimlere mümkün olduğunca erken başlanmalı ve belirli aralıklarla eğitimler yenilenmelidir. Bu konuda rol model olması gereken ve mesleki olarak kendini de koruması gereken hekimlerin preklinik dönemde bu eğitimleri almaları çok önemlidir.
