General Practice Education
General practitioners, practice nurses and other primary health care professionals are often at the front line in cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The Cancer Council WA offers several services to support their role.
What's new?
The GP Education project has developed two new resources for general practitioners. These A4 quick reference cards will address brief interventions in general practice, and the appropriate use of diagnostic imaging.
