Abstract | General practice nurses (PNs) can support better management of chronic diseases. Internationally, nurse-managed clinics are used in coordinating and managing chronic illness and are more effective then traditional care. They have also been used in Australia in heart failure and diabetes management. However the role of PNs in Australian general practice is not established. One issue is its acceptability to the consumer, about which there is limited information. We are designing a research project investigating a PN-led collaborative care model of chronic disease management within general practice, and as a first step wanted to estimate patient acceptability to the model. The objective was to trial our patient recruitment procedure and the outcome was an indication of whether the design would recruit sufficient numbers of patients. Our research questions focussed on whether or not the participant recruitment methods: - were easy to follow for PNs and practice staff |
