Vision  Influence through Excellence

Mission  Better Outcomes through General Practice

What is SQRDGP?

Southern Queensland Rural Division of General Practice is a not-for-profit member-based service organisation, providing support, education and information for GPs and practice staff to improve health outcomes in rural and remote areas.

To assist service delivery to members, local networks of GPs (Chapters) have been set up in Beaudesert, Chinchilla, Charleville, Dalby, Goondiwindi, Kingaroy, Murgon, Roma, Stanthorpe, St George and Warwick. Chapters, led by a designated GP Coordinator, are directly supported by Liaison Officers located in regional offices in Kingaroy, Roma and Warwick. Infrastructure support is maintained through the Toowoomba office.

Quality CPD and education activities are delivered through collaboration with accredited providers. In addition, the Division provides practice support across a broad range of program activity including Information Technology and Management in General Practice, Workforce and Doctor?s Health.

Communication across a vast and often very isolated geographic area is recognised as a challenge for service delivery. SQRDGP utilises a variety of tools such as printed newsletters, faxstream, email, online resources and practice visits to engage its membership.
