Health promotion in general practice: the views of staff.
Since July 1993 general practices have been offered the responsibility for health promotion programmes to reduce coronary heart disease and strokes. This paper reports on a study which examined the views of GPs and practice nurses on the new arrangements for health promotion. It concludes that there has been an increase in paperwork as result of the changes. It also suggests that practices may have been over-ambitious in the level of health promotion they were trying to provide.
