Challenges of the present – health promotion / education
Primary health care is … accessible to individuals and families … It is the first level of contact … bringing health care as close as possible to where people live and work... Declaration of Alma-Ata, 1978
Challenges of the present One GP model – overload - lack of time for prevention – isolated working circumstances Different accessibility - chronic care and rehabilitation service based on outpatient services Enormous administration - lack of IT support
