Improving GP visits: The PCEP Program
What is the PCEP program?
The Department of Health, Disability and Ageing is running the Primary Care Enhancement Program (PCEP).
This program helps GPs and nurses learn how to better support people with intellectual disability.
PCEP is happening in:
- Wide Bay
- Central and Eastern Sydney (NSW)
- Western Victoria
- Tasmania
Our research team – including researchers with intellectual disability – want to understand if PCEP is making a difference in how people experience care at GP clinics in these areas
What’s involved?
We’re asking people with intellectual disability and their support people to talk with us about going to their GP.
We want to hear about what it’s been like going to the GP in the areas of the PCEP program.
We’ll ask questions about:
- What you liked about going to visit your GP
- What you didn’t like about going to visit your GP
- What could be better
People who talk with us will get a $50 gift card for their time.
