One of the skills in family and community medicine is care of emergency pathology, whether in the hospital or out-of-hospital setting. The specialty programme includes this and family and community medicine professional training is set out in a very versatile way and enables care at all stages of life. The need for qualified and versatile training in rural areas is especially relevant due to the intense variability of situations to be tackled.
To analyze this versatility in the field of primary versus emergency care, an online questionnaire was devised to be disseminated among our members over the Internet. By means of this questionnaire it was intended to collate the differences and opportunities for professional improvement. The survey of this cross-sectional study was disseminated by means of the Federated Societies of the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine and data were obtained from 88% of Spain.
Although the sample evaluated is small, it is concluded that 92% believe that it is positive to be able to work in both areas, since it provides security and better management of the patient beyond the setting where she was treated.
