O presente estudo tem como objectivo adaptar e validar um questionário de clima organizacional para instituições sociais, a partir do Organizational Climate Survey (The University of Tennessee Children’s Mental Health Services Research Center, 2000), utilizando uma amostra de profissionais que trabalham em diversas áreas de intervenção social. O instrumento original apresenta uma abordagem multidimensional do conceito de clima, integrando uma estrutura com quatro temas gerais (clima, estrutura, tecnologia e atitudes face ao trabalho). Após a tradução do instrumento, e de forma a observar as qualidades psicométricas da versão portuguesa, procedeu­?se à análise da sua estrutura factorial através de análises factoriais confirmatórias, análise da fidelidade, análise da sensibilidade e validação relativa a um critério. Os resultados da análise factorial confirmatória indicaram que o modelo original é suportado em apenas três dos quatro factores do questionário original (...)

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a debilitating chronic illness with significant morbidity and mortality across the United States. The AAMC and LCME have supported the efforts for more effective medical education of SUD to address the existing stigma, knowledge, and treatment gaps. The Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and associated social, economic, and behavioral impacts have added to this urgency. The University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville (USCSOMG), in collaboration with community organizations, has successfully implemented an integrated SUD education curriculum for medical students. Students learn about SUD in basic sciences, receive case-based education during clinical exercises, and are provided the opportunity to become a recovery coach and participate in the patient and family recovery meetings through this curriculum during preclinical years. During the clinical years, SUD education is enhanced with exposure to Medication for Addition Treatment (MAT). Students also partake in the care coordination of patients with SUD between the hospital and community recovery organizations. All students receive MAT waiver training in their final year and are prepared to prescribe treatment for SUD upon graduation. The experiences in this integrated curriculum integration can perhaps assist other organizations to implement similar components and empower the next generation of physicians to be competent and effective in treating patients with SUD.

AbstractAlthough medical students enter medicine with altruistic motives and seek to serve indigent populations, studies show that medical students’ attitudes towards the undeserved tend to worsen significantly as they go through their medical education. This finding emphasizes the need for medical educators to implement activities such as service-learning that may help mitigate this negative trend.All students at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) School of Medicine are required to participate in longitudinal service-learning throughout medical school, and a majority of students interact with the underserved at their service-learning sites. Using the previously validated Medical Student Attitudes Towards the Underserved (MSATU), independent sample T-tests showed that students who interact with underserved populations at their sites scored with significantly better attitudes towards the underserved at the end of their preclinical phase. Subjects included 58 medical students with 100% taking the MSATU. This result indicates that longitudinal service-learning, particularly when it includes interaction with the underserved, can be one method to combat the worsening of medical students’ attitudes as they complete their medical education.
