“…Lebanese health policy makers need to take into account the findings of this study and develop strategies to address the problemof migrations of physicians [22][23][24], as well as other healthcare workers [25]. Such strategies should carefully address the oversaturation of the Lebanese job market and enhance residency training in terms of capacity, to make it responsiveness to the local market needs, and in terms of quality, to make it appealing for graduating medical students.…”

Abstract:Objective: To evaluate a conceptual framework portraying the factors underlying the intentions of medical students to train abroad.Methods: Eligible subjects were students in the pre-final and final years of medical studies in Lebanon. A survey questionnaire based on the conceptual framework inquired about demographic and educational characteristics, influencing factors, and intentions to train abroad. We assessed each of the factors for its frequency, distribution, and association with the intention to train abroad.Results: Of 576 eligible students, 425 (74%) participated. The frequency of the framework factors varied from 16% to 94% and was the highest for factors related to training and professional career. The factors independently associated with the intention to train abroad related to residency training, concern with professional career and political conditions. The intention to train abroad was also associated with thinking that the general public considers doctors trained abroad as more qualified (OR=6.3; 95% CI=1.2-33.2); receiving information about abroad training from doctors trained or training abroad (OR= 9.7; 95% CI=1.7-56.6); having relatives or friends living abroad (OR=6.9; 95% CI=1.4-35.7); and witnessing residents traveling to retrain abroad (OR=22.2; 95% CI=4.5-111.1).Conclusions: Issues related to residency training, concerns about future career, and political conditions are the main motivators for Lebanese medical students to train abroad. The proposed conceptual framework provides a useful tool, but requires further evaluation.

“…La educación especializada puede informar los criterios de calidad y, consecuentemente, el personal estará mejor capacitado para implementar nuevas estrategias de calidad en el cuidado de la salud, como la acreditación. En los servicios más calificados, los enfermeros pueden desarrollar programas innovadores centrados en nuevos conceptos de estructura, con el objetivo de lograr una mejor calidad a través de las mejores prácticas en el cuidado de la salud (15,16) .…”

El estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar el impacto de los programas de acreditación hospitalaria desde la perspectiva de las enfermeras. Este es un estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo, exploratorio, que tuvo lugar en hospital general privado acreditado con excelencia (Nivel III, el más alto) por la Organización Nacional de Acreditación. La recolección de datos se realizó mediante un cuestionario tipo Likert compuesto por siete escalas relacionadas con: la calidad de los resultados; El uso de los recursos humanos; la calidad de la planificación estratégica; Gestión de la Calidad; El uso de datos relacionados con la satisfacción del paciente; Participación del personal; Y los beneficios de la acreditación. Los resultados muestran que las enfermeras se dieron cuenta de las mejoras resultantes del proceso de acreditación en las siguientes áreas: planificación estratégica de la calidad; Gestión de la Calidad; Utilización de los datos relacionados con la satisfacción del paciente y la participación del personal con la calidad del hospital. Por el contrario, el proceso de acreditación no resultó en desarrollos en relación al tiempo dado a las enfermeras para preparar y probar mejoras de la calidad y también para el uso de los recursos humanos, especialmente en lo que se refiere a las recompensas y estrategias de reconocimiento. Llegamos a la conclusión de que las enfermeras tienen un papel clave en la consecución del proceso de acreditación y, por tanto, las recompensas y las estrategias de reconocimiento precisan ser mejor desarrolladas y puestas en práctica y las enfermeras necesitan tener tiempo suficiente para realizar actividades relacionadas con el proceso de acreditación.Palabras clave: Acreditación; Garantía de la Calidad de Atención de Salud; Enfermería.
