More than half a century ago, Benjamin Paul set forth a new
concept for improving the health of communities by understanding
local cultural beliefs that can perpetuate disease and illness (Paul,
1955). His tenet was that if health professionals and others want to
change behavior, they must first understand the existing
ethnomedical beliefs and values of the community. This is known in
anthropology as the “insider” versus “outsider” perspective, and it is
largely accepted in public health for the prevention, control, and
management of infectious disease (Sommerfeld, 1998; Morris et al.,
1999).
Terminology is critical to the insider/outsider discussion. For
example, according to Hyder and Morrow (2012), disease in many
cultures is seen as a western biomedical, outsider term, while illness
is an insider’s subjective expression of not feeling well. The problem
Hyder notes arises when the two perspectives come into conflict. In
this instance, a person may be diagnosed with a disease such as HIV
or hypertension without feeling sick. It is then up to the health care
provider to explain why medication or behavior change is necessary
when the person does not view him- or herself as sick. This is the
sort of insider training that community-based health professional
education is meant to provide. By exposing students to people in
their home or community settings, learners gain a greater
understanding of the challenges faced by those they serve.
On May 1–2, 2014, members of the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM’s)
Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professional Education came
together to substantively delve into issues affecting the scale-up and
spread of health professional education in communities. This
workshop builds upon previous workshops of the Global Forum that
specifically addressed the value of interprofessional education for
breaking down the siloed nature of health care and health
professional education (IOM, 2013, 2014a). The financial and other
cost implications of not conforming to more collaborative work that
also embraces the person/patient as the key member of the team
was also previously addressed (IOM, 2013, 2014b). These
workshops not only were instrumental in providing context on which
to build, but also set in motion dialogue around the importance of
addressing communities and community health, the topic of the
workshop described here.
A purpose of the workshop was to challenge the participants to
think about community in new ways that could provide fertile ground
for educating health professional students. Participants thus heard a
wide variety of individual accounts from innovators about work they
are undertaking. Some of the examples were from educational
institutions working with communities; others represented potential
opportunities for education in and with communities. The thinking
behind presenting the variety of examples that range from student
community service to computer modeling was to stimulate
discussions about how educators might better integrate education
with practice in communities. This report is not intended to be a
comprehensive guide to implementing a community-based
educational program. In fact, the report often raises more questions
than it answers, as intended by the Global Forum, which was set up
to provide a platform for open and creative dialogue and discussion.
The Forum is an ongoing, multinational, multidisciplinary approach
to proposing and exploring promising innovations for achieving
recommended reforms in the instructional and institutional spheres.
Members of the Forum represent varied interests oriented toward a
variety of countries, professions, and organizations. They joined
forces at the IOM’s Keck Center in Washington, DC, to share
personal experiences, explore new ideas, and hear about best
practices in community-based health professional education from
those who are currently working in this space.
The statement of task in Box S-1 provided the basis on which the
workshop planning committee developed the agenda. Both
community-based education (CBE) and interprofessional education
(IPE) are featured prominently in the task and on the agenda;
however, members of the planning committee listed chose to make
CBE the main thrust of the workshop while IPE was emphasized in
many of the discussions. The two should not be conflated. Whereas
IPE is often a part of CBE, it is not always part of CBE. Similarly, IPE
can be experienced in academic centers and is not exclusively taught
through CBE. A possible gap in the statement of task was the lack of
a clear connection between service delivery models and education
models (e.g., if clinicians are to work together in interprofessional
teams, the inherent logic is to have at least some training in how to
collaborate and in team-building skills). Similarly, if there is a need
for more care to be delivered in the community, there is a logic for
more education to be occurring in communities in order to prepare
graduates for this work. With that understanding about the elements
contained in the statement of task, the planning committee used it
as a guide for developing the workshop objectives.
BOX S-1
Statement of Task for Community-Based
Health Professional Education: A Workshop
There is growing evidence from developed and developing
countries that community-based approaches are effective in
improving the health of individuals and populations. This is
especially true when the social determinants of health are
considered in the design of the community-based approach.
With an aging population and an emphasis on health
promotion, the United States is increasingly focusing on
community-based health and health care.
Preventing disease and promoting health calls for a holistic
approach to health interventions that rely more heavily upon
interprofessional collaborations. However, the financial and
structural design of health professional education remains siloed
and largely focused on academic health centers for training.
Despite these challenges, there are good examples of
interprofessional, community-based programs and curricula for
educating health professionals. Some of these examples make
use of new technologies for reaching rural communities while
others use technology for faculty development and still others
use it for curriculum delivery to train health professions
students. This training can extend to the health professionals
and nonprofessionals that are based in communities of need in
order to create the necessary workforce that can respond to the
community’s identified needs. In this way, the needs of diverse
communities are met by those who live in the community
thereby improving health equity and decreasing disparities
among typically underserved populations.
These issues will be examined in a 2-day public workshop
that will be planned and organized by an ad hoc committee of
the Institute of Medicine. The committee will develop a
workshop agenda, select and invite speakers and discussants,
and moderate the discussions. Following the workshop, an
individually authored summary of the event will be prepared by
a designated rapporteur.

Excerpt from Health Culture and
Community: Case Studies
If you wish to help a community improve its health, you must
learn to think like the people of that community. Before asking a
group to assume new health habits, it is wise to ascertain the
existing habits, how these habits are linked to one another,
what functions they perform, and what they mean to those who
practice them.

DISCUSSION
Individual Forum members and other workshop participants then
expressed their views about how they would educate health
professionals in order to develop the qualities and skills outlined by
the speakers. Individual responses of the members are noted below.
Admission Selection
A comment by one of the speakers on the importance of student
community engagement early in their health professional education
resonated with Eugene Anderson from the American Dental
Educational Association (ADEA). Anderson took the comment a step
further; he talked about selecting individuals for health professions
that already possess the types of desired experiences and
commitment sought by health professions for serving diverse
communities.
In a similar vein, Susan Skochelak with the American Medical
Association (AMA) brought up selection criteria that better reflected
the values of the community the school seeks to serve. For example,
she said, what if admissions committees were reversed so members
of the community represented the vast majority of the selection
committee rather than faculty? She said that would be a change that
could occur in relatively short amount of time and would have the
potential to have a significant impact on communities.
Educational Design
George Thibault from the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation discussed the
importance of changing the whole model of clinical education so
experiences are longitudinal and meaningful in the community. He
believes that such experiences would form longer-term relationships
with patients, families, and the community and would create longer-
term relationships between learners and faculty.
