Background
Research and critical thinking are essential skills for general practitioners. However, evidence indicates that GPs tend to lack confidence in their research ability. Regional training providers can address this by integrating primary care research education and skills development into their general practice training programs.
Objective
The Adelaide to Outback GP Training Program developed a model that aims to overcome existing barriers to GP research and to promote a research culture across the organisation. It includes a research and critical thinking program for all registrars, a support structure for registrars wanting to extend their research expertise, and an organisational structure to promote and support research for registrars as well as throughout the organisation.
Discussion
Since the implementation of the model there has been an increase in the frequency and quality of research outcomes at the Adelaide to Outback GP Training Program.
