The view from general practice Dr Colin Fitzpatrick GP
“The people who run General Practice in Northern Ireland have no clue about the extent of our workload issue. According to them if there is any workload problem it's our own fault for being greedy and not taking on extra partners to share the work with!” Quote from a young GP partner
How can general practice contribute? • Changes in practices • Practices working together • Working with other stakeholders
Changes within practices • New ways of working – Ask my GP – Telephone triage • Skill mix changes – Everyone working at the top of their game • More complex cases, less simple cases
Practices working together • GP federations – Sharing work – Sharing resources – New care pathways • RCGP – Promoting quality in practice
Working with other stakeholders • Integrated care partnerships • GP led care report • Pharmacy first • Empowering patients
