ABSTRACT

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a medical science and cultural heritage empirically applied and reserved by Chinese people for thousands of years. The fact that TCM has been used in China for thousands of years shows the value and reason why it must exist. Although TCM has been or is being questioned, there is no doubt about its importance in terms of efficacy. The education of "Western medicine practitioners learning Chinese medicine" is a mode of continuing medical education with Chinese characteristics, and it is one of the historically proven and effective ways to cultivate talents in the integration of Chinese and Western medicines, which has a great role to play in promoting the development of the cause of Chinese medicine and the discipline of integration of Chinese and Western medicines in China. The purpose is to let the western medicine doctors also have a certain ability to serve Chinese medicine. In this paper, through the questionnaire survey on the second-level public hospitals in Changchun, we have made a preliminary analysis of the current situation of the training activities of "Western doctors learning Chinese medicine", understood the difficulties faced by the current training activities, and thought about how to solve these difficulties. Only if the education of "Western doctors learning Chinese medicine" is more standardized, practical and professionalized can we train more medical talents with the highest level of sincerity and expertise in learning Chinese and Western medicine for the country.
