医学生に対する入学後早期の体験実習(early exposure)の重要性が叫ばれて久しい.山口大学では,入学後間もない医学科1年生にEarly exposureの一環として,高齢者施設体験実習を行っている.その現状と課題について,実習後の学生アンケートの結果を中心に若干の文献的考察と共に報告する.アンケート結果等からは,体験実習を行った学生,施設の双方に好意的に受け入れられていた.また,我々が期待した介護現場の現状を体験することができたと回答した学生が88%に上った.その一方で,施設,学生,大学のそれぞれの立場からの問題点が挙げられた.これらの問題点を改善しながら,より適した実習体制を今後確立していく必要があると思われた.

It has long been considered important for medical students to undergo practical training early after admission to medical school(early exposure).At Yamaguchi University, as a part of early exposure, we have been providing first-year students with an opportunity for practical training in welfare facilities for the elderly shortly after admission to the school of medicine. Here, we report the current situation and problems encountered in early exposure, along with the literature on this topic and the results of a questionnaire completed by the students after training. According to the survey results, the training experience has been well accepted by both the facilities and the students. As many as 89% of the students were satisfied with the practical training experience, as expected. However, some problems were encountered from the point of view of the facility, the students, and the university. We need to address these problems to establish a better training system.
