GP

General Practitioners play an important role in looking after patients in the community. They would typically, promote, prevent, initiate treatment and refer patients into secondary care. GP's look after patients with chronic illnesses with an aim to keep them in their own home and ensure that they are as well as possible. This is where GPs can come to find out information about what offers, funding and development opportunities the Training Hub currently has on offer.

On this page you can find a list of training and development opportunities available to GPs. If you are looking for specific support available to you depending on the stage of your career, you will find links to these areas at the bottom of this page.
