General practice is a rewarding and compelling environment in which to work, you have the privilege of caring for people from ‘cradle to grave’, engaging with the communities and families you care for. You will get to know them over several years through many life transitions. Understanding these transitions and the needs of people at different stages of their life is threaded throughout the course.
