What does Modern general practice mean?

There’s been a huge amount of work done in primary care to improve processes and systems for staff and access to patients. In the past year to 18 months that has been referred to as ‘Modern General Practice.'

In this final episode of our first Transforming Primary Care podcast series GP practice team colleagues discuss how new ways of working benefit both practices and patients and explore the challenges that are faced when making changes to the way we do things.

Topics covered include the assessment of patients using modern triage techniques, equality of access for patients and the effective use of the multi-disciplinary team within general practice.
