A teaching ward round in infectious diseases - a pilot module.
The ongoing care of patients requires close communication between general practitioners and hospital specialists. In 2005, the General Practice Liaison Office and Department of Infectious Diseases at The Canberra Hospital designed a pilot module to promote interaction between GPs and hospital specialists and to provide an educational opportunity for GPs to be updated on the hospital practice of managing infectious diseases. The simplicity of the module is the key to its generalisability outside Canberra and Australia.
