In recent years there has been an increasing emphasis both
in government policy and amongst medical organisations on using a "population
approach" in both the prevention and treatment of illness. So, what is this
population approach? What evidence is there that it works? And what does it mean
to rural or remote general practitioners? These are some of the questions that
this online course aims to answer.
The materials in this course were developed in partnership
with Queensland Country Practice (QCP), Darling Downs Hospital and Health
Service.
QCP has agreed to its wider release to contribute to the
broad training curriculum delivered through ACRRM and the potential benefit to
rural doctors in training in other areas.
