Resumen
DEL-HUERTO-MARIMON, María Elena et al. Professional culture: its operationalization in Cuban medical university. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.2, pp. 375-387. Epub 30-Abr-2022. ISSN 1684-1824.
Introduction:
professional culture is a complex and essential concept in the current context, due to the priority granted by Cuban state and government to the comprehensive training as essential element of the academic quality higher education exacts.
Objective:
to conceptualize professional culture and its operationalization in present-day Cuban higher medical education.
Materials and methods:
the authors performed the content analysis of a group of essential programmatic and normative documents at different levels, carried out a bibliographic review of the main authors that approached the theme, and contrasted the main theoretic-conceptual and practical presuppositions by triangulation.
Results: it was evidenced the lack of a theoretic-conceptual body on professional culture, and its necessity and importance in the comprehensive training and formation of professional and identity values prioritized by Cuban higher education, mainly by higher medical education.
Conclusions:
professional culture is an essential part of the training of the Cuban professional, and is an element of its historic memory. Because of that it is relevant in the training of identity professional values, especially in health professionals, and it should be consolidated in the normative documents from the theoretic-conceptual and operational point of view, through comprehensive projects.
