Evaluation of Family Medicine by the Society in the COVID-19 Period: Cross-Sectional Research
Öz: Objective: This study aims to determine how society evaluates family medicine during the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic process. Material and Methods: Sociodemographic information form and European Patients Evaluate General/Family Practice (EUROPEP) Physician Evaluation Scale adapted to Turkish by Aktürk et al. were used as data collection tools in the study. The study includes individuals who applied to family medicine in the last 12 months in Samsun between 01.04.2021 and 06.06.2021. In the study, a power analysis was performed, and the number of samples was determined as 344, and 351 participants were reached by snowball sampling method. The data obtained in the study were analyzed with the SPSS Statics 23 Package program. Results: According to the EUROPEP Physician Evaluation Scale, the average of the answers given to the statements is between 3.56-4.03. As a result of the analysis carried out in the study, a statistically significant difference was found between the gender (p=0.029<0.05), income (p=0.046<0.05), and age (p=0.000<0.05) variables of individuals and their positive evaluation of family physicians. There was no statistically significant difference between the variables of marital status (p=0.166>0.05), education level (p=0.391>0.05), occupation (p=0.314>0.05) and place of residence (p=0.751>0.05) and positive evaluation of family physicians. Conclusion: As a result of the study, it has been concluded that individuals have a high level of positive evaluation of family physicians during the COVID-19 pandemic process and that measures have been taken against the COVID-19 epidemic in family health centers.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak, sosyodemografik bilgi formu ve Aktürk ve ark. tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan “European Patients Evaluate General/Family Practice (EUROPEP) Hekim Değerlendirme Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Samsun’da 01.04.2021- 06.06.2021 tarihleri arasında son 12 ayda aile hekimliğine başvuran bireyleri kapsamaktadır. Çalışmada power analizi yapılarak örneklem sayısı 344 olarak belirlenmiş ve kartopu örnekleme yöntemi ile 351 katılımcıya ulaşılmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen veriler SPSS Statics 23 Paket programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular: EUROPEP Hekim Değerlendirme Ölçeğine göre ifadelere verilen cevapların ortalaması 3.56- 4.03 arasındadır.

Medeni durum (p=0,166>0,05), eğitim durumu (p=0,391>0,05), meslek (p=0,314>0,05) ve ikamet yeri (p=0,751>0,05) değişkenleri ile aile hekimlerini olumlu yönde değerlendirmeleri arasında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık bulunamamıştır. Sonuç: Çalışma sonucunda, COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde bireylerin aile hekimlerini olumlu yönde değerlendirmelerinin yüksek düzeyde olduğu ve aile sağlığı merkezlerinde COVID-19 salgınına yönelik tedbirlerin alındığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
