Nursing in General Practice Minimize

The role of the Nurse in general practice is diverse and varied and an integral part of the General Practice team. The Division recognises the important contribution practice nurses make within the primary healthcare sector and aims to support the role of nurses working in general practice by providing access to education and professional development, assistance with Government initiatives, and assistance in chronic disease management.

The Division provides orientation resources for nurses new to general practice as well as professional development opportunities which attract CNE points. Many of these CPD opportunities focus on multidisciplinary and optimal practice systems.
