Introduction:

the link between learning content and social practice is an important approach to work with local history.

Objective:

to design a methodological proposal for the work on the history of local medicine from the curricular activity.

Methods:

mixed-focused development research during the academic year 2019-2020 at Dr. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna School of Medical Sciences in Pinar del Rio. The target group included 12 professors. To collect the information, a lecture observation guide and a survey were written.

Results:

an unsatisfactory work is conducted with the history of local medicine from the educational curricula. In 92.44% of the lectures observed, aspects related to the development of local medicine, life stories of outstanding personalities in their services, human values and social participation were not addressed. Professors are lack of knowledge related to the history of local medicine. Eight actions were designed for methodological work.

Conclusions:

methodological actions were developed based on the identified deficiencies, which were assessed by specialists as relevant, which could be applied by the availability of human and material resources to implement them and with scientific pedagogical quality for the accomplishment of these actions.
