| A one-day Forum will be held on 15 April 2005 to profile the research outcomes from the 'Practice Capacity for Chronic Disease Care' study conducted by the Centre for GP Integration Studies/University of Adelaide and to highlight other advances in the field.
This will be particularly relevant to the new Division's contracts and performance indicators, and for the National Chronic Disease Strategy.
Target Audience:
- Divisions, SBOs, standards and accreditation
agencies and other organisations supporting general practices
- GPs, practice staff and other health professionals involved in chronic disease management
- Policy makers, national and state program staff
Why: Join with colleagues to discuss the organization and capacity that practices need for chronic disease care and how this can be developed, based on recent research, experience in the field and current national programs, particularly the National Chronic Disease Strategy.
Highlights of the program
- Research outcomes and experiences from the field
- The latest capacity-building initiatives by Divisions and practices
- Incorporating practice capacity into the National Chronic Disease Strategy and
other national programs
- Workshop sessions on what this means for practices, the Divisions Network, and
national and state programs.
