PracNet explored why patients attend afterhours appointments. Perceived need was high among ED, CALMS and WIC patients; but GP patients preferred afterhours for convenience. Read more here: doi.org/10.1071/PY22087
Research by GPs for GP patients - a critical part of the Danish health care system’s success. Well funded and well supported by the Danish University health sector and national funding. Could we do that here please??? #GPConnect #AAAPC #Pracnet #ANUMS
Aust GP Supervisors have high rates (70%) of burnout. We need to recognize and support these leaders who are vital to any long term GP workforce solution. Simply increasing clinical placements without appropriately resourcing them will not help @RMA22, @AAAPC_ANZ @ANUMedSchool

When health experts announced that the majority of patients in hospital are unvaccinated — but not all — some wrongly felt this supported the theory that vaccination wasn’t effective. Actually, it once again shows how INCREDIBLY EFFECTIVE vaccines are. It’s all about proportions.

We believe that primary care research must remain a priority area for MRFF funding and that funding allocated to this area should be significantly increased. #MRFFconsultation #ourprimarycare

Our @jmirpub paper is out! I loved learning from patients that eCHAT had the potential to reduce feelings of stigma and help them engage better with their GPs. @LizSturgiss Felicity Goodyear-Smith @gavin_jd_smith @ANUMedSchool jmir.org/2020/9/e19256/
