Description

Primary care is an ever-changing sphere, but the skills needed to promote or manage the change remain the same, and this book's aim is to develop those skills. It complements the Train the Trainer manual which accompanies the Helping People Change training course, and also provides an introduction to primary care for medical and nursing students on community attachments, GP trainees and practice staff.
