Abstract
Remote supervision of health professionals in areas of workforce need: time to extend the model?
Highlights
A period of supervision in practice is an essential part of professional training for rural general practice in Australia[1,2]
A more recent update is that a total of about 70 GP registrars have been through the program, with 63 achieving Fellowship of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP), the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM), or both Colleges[6]
There are currently 70 remote GP registrars in training and 81 trained remote supervisors, some of whom were trained through remote supervision
Summary
A period of supervision in practice is an essential part of professional training for rural general practice in Australia[1,2]. Trainees and supervisors were able to interact frequently, through a combination of workshop attendances, practice teaching visits and telephone discussions[4]. The level of contact was similar to that between trainees and supervisors in the same practice.
