The contribution of approaches to organisational change in optimising the primary health care workforce
Year: 2007
Type: report
Abstract: Australia is facing long term workforce shortages coupled with a population increasingly burdened with chronic disease. The National Chronic Disease Strategy recognises the central role general practice has to play in the prevention, detection and management of chronic illness. Implementing the strategy will require considerable change in the way general practice teams work. Organisational development (OD) is used in businesses to improve how individuals and organisations perform in achieving organisational objectives. We assessed how these practices could be used in a general practice setting.
