Sobre la formación integral del médico: aportaciones de las Primeras Jornadas Estatales de estudio y reflexión sobre el tema

Paper starts with the conclusions of the First State Conference about ‘Doctor’s Integral Education’ that were outlined as a reflection conference more than a systematic study conference. In that sense, paper is based on the conclusions of the diverse Conference work groups. It includes a series of reflections on its topics: influences of the social context, theoretical aspects, technicians and pragmatic of the topic, their application in the pre-graduate teaching, graduate degree and continuous, selection of the docents, of the candidates and of the evaluation methods... We emphasize the necessity of a change in the orientation of the learning, introducing the emotional elements and experiential in new technical formats. We insist also in the utility and applications of the groups in general, and the ‘Balint type’ groups in particular, in this new formative context.
