Title GP rejects study suggesting patients do not get lifestyle advice Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet News GP Media type Web Country/Territory Australia Date 7/05/24 Description According to new research, most Australians say they are not getting healthy lifestyle guidance from their GPs – but is that true?
...Meanwhile, REC–QC Chair Professor Mark Morgan told newsGP it was encouraging to see that people may be heeding doctors’ health guidance, but more in-depth research tools are needed to show the ‘extent and effectiveness of preventive activity in general practice’.
‘In an ideal world, GPs and their multidisciplinary teams would work in partnership with patients to optimise self-care,’ he said.
‘Our electronic medical records would have useful ways to record nuances of lifestyle factors.’Producer/Author Chelsea Heaney URL https://www1.racgp.org.au/newsgp/clinical/gp-rejects-research-suggesting-patients-do-not-get?utm_source=racgpnewsgpnewsletter&utm_campaign=newsgpedm&utm_medium=email Persons Mark Morgan
