Research summary: Preventive activities in general practice

Written by HealthCert Education | Jul 15, 2024 3:51:10 AM

This month we look at the new edition of the RACGP Red Book, the 10th edition of the document that supports preventive activities in general practice.

Long awaited, the 10th edition updates evidence across many aspects of our work in primary care. Of specific interest to us, of course, is the section on skin cancer which is found in chapter 10 of section 7.

These few pages are well worth a careful read as they are a good guide to how we can best serve our patients in a general practice setting.
