Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Outreach visits
Practices allocated to outreach visits may receive up to three outreach visits in order to motivate and support general practice clinics in implementing two chronic care programmes for chronic obstructive Pulmonary disease and Type 2 diabetes.
Outreach visits
The 16 facilitators in the project attend an educational programme designed to provide them with the necessary skills and tools for the task. The facilitators visit general practice clinics from March 2011 until the end of 2012. Each clinic is offered three visits. The facilitator is to act as a change agent who motivates and helps the clinic team in the process of defining common goals, and choosing the appropriate means for achieving them.
Control (late intervention)
These practices are allocated to outreach visits after the initial evaluation stops at 12 months.
No interventions assigned to this group
