[Role of the countryside general practictioner in recognition of reasons and circumstances of alcohol abuse by patients of Spzoz. Part I. Characteristics of staff and patients resources in the outpatient health care in the Lublin voivodeship].
The investigation of physicians of SPZOZ in the Lublin voivodeship was carried out in 2001. A special interview technique was used. It was divided into four parts: concerning investigated physicians; describing patients abusing alcohol, reasons and circumstances of alcohol abuse; concerning changes in organization of medical care of the alcohol abusing patients; characterizing activity of physicians, therapies and their efficiency. The main aim of part I was to assess professional training of physicians for this kind of medical care as well as to characterize alcohol abusers on the basis of the physicians' opinions. The investigations showed insufficient medical training of physicians and, as a result, poor recognition of reasons and circumstances of alcohol abuse by their patients. The characteristics of patients abusing alcohol given by the physicians are the same as those commonly presented by mass media.
