Abstrakt: Bed‐side teaching is the process of active learning in the presence of a patient. A cross‐sectional study was conducted in a teaching hospital to obtain the opinions of clinical teachers about bed‐side teaching including perceived hindrances to its implementation. Of 152 teachers, 78% responded to the questionnaire. Ninety‐five per cent reported that bed‐side teaching is an effective way to teach professional skills. Time constraints, noisy wards and patients not being available were reported as the most frequently experienced hindrances to bed‐side teaching. The survey found strong support for bed‐side teaching but a substantial number of barriers to its implementation. Further research is required to study methods that will improve bed‐side teaching.
