Abstract

Aim: Determine attitude of the medical community towards educational programs for patients. Materials and methods: One hundred physicians (19 males and 81females, mean age 42,4±1,2) were interviewed; of them 50 worked in primary health care and 50 were nephrologists. Results: The findings of the study showed a slice of specialists’ knowledge in nephrology. Analysis of social portraits of nephrologists and primary health care physicians revealed what kind of experts meet with kidney disease patients. The study provided the knowledge of patients’ compliance, the initial level of patients' understanding of their disease, according to doctors. The data showed what causes prevent doctors from taking part in educational projects and arguments that would allow them to engage in this activity. Conclusion: In general, the attitude of the medical community to patients’ educational projects was positive. The majority of experts are ready to take part in health schools for the patients. At the same time, doctors have knowledge gaps in nephrology; some doctors do not follow a healthy lifestyle. One of the main criteria for participation in health schools for the patients is financial incentives, rather than a genuine desire to help the patient in learning to control the course of their disease and acquire knowledge that will enable it to fight the illness.
