[Supervision--why?].

Abstract

In their work, doctors are exposed to strong emotions on the part of their patients. They need to learn to listen and not interrupt them; in general, after each consultation they focus on whatever was not accomplished. Therefore doctors need a secure environment in which they can examine common work conditions, as well as their own strengths and weaknesses, with colleagures in order to discover new ways of doing things. Based on this observation, it is a very positive development that supervision has become a part of the new specialist training for general practice.

An assessment of the compliance with good pharmacy practice in an urban and rural district in Sri Lanka.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the compliance of private pharmacies to good pharmacy practice (GPP) in an urban and rural district in Sri Lanka and identify deficiencies with a view to improving supply of safe and effective drugs to consumers. METHODS: Lot quality assurance sampling (LQAS) method was used to determine the number of pharmacies that need to be studied and the threshold limit of defective elements. An inspection of 20 pharmacies in the urban and all 18 pharmacies in the rural district was carried out using a structured checklist. Compliance to seven subsystems of GPP was studied. RESULTS: Storage of drugs, maintenance of cold chain, dispensing and documentation were comprehensively substandard in both districts. Individual items of supervision in registration, physical environment and order of the pharmacy were also found to be substandard in both districts. CONCLUSION: This study shows that the LQAS method can be used to identify inadequate pharmacy services in the community as a whole. There was poor compliance to GPP by the private pharmacies in both districts. There are concerns about the quality of drugs and the safety of private pharmacy services to the community. Some of the deficiencies could be easily corrected by educating the pharmacists and authorised officers, and more effective and streamlined supervision.

Clinical Competence↗

Training a competent surgeon.

Residency education is evolving into a competency model. Defining and evaluating competence are new paradigms that must be rapidly inserted into residency programs to satisfy residency requirements.

Competencies as an evaluation tool.

Competency-based resident education focuses on resident performance (learning outcomes) in reaching specific competencies (goals and objectives of the curriculum). The seven competencies that are outlined in the Council on Podiatric Medical Education 320 document are organizing principles for a podiatric residency curriculum. Through the use of the competencies, the resident evaluation can be constructed to best determine the need for resident intervention as well as program improvements.
