Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic changed the way education was delivered. In Australian general practice training, external clinical teaching visits (ECTVs) had to be done remotely. This research explored that phenomenon from the point of view of the participants to answer questions about feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness. The experiences of ECTV visitors, registrars, supervisors and practice managers were invited initially by survey and then through interview and focus groups. Data were analysed using a constant comparative method giving four major themes and several subthemes. Remote ECTVs were well accepted by all participants. They are different to ECTVs done face to face, with both advantages and disadvantages. Remote ECTVs are feasible and effective and are likely to become part of the ongoing Australian general practice teaching program.
