RR254 - The profile of patients' occupational health in primary care
To provide quantitative and qualitative data to answer the
following questions;
- Why do GPs and practice nurses not take greater account of
occupational issues in their day to day contact with patients of
working age?
- Why has patient's occupational health failed to gain a
higher priority amongst primary care managers and planners?
- What are the professional, social, and economic pressures
that give occupational health a low priority?
- What could HSE do to turn these pressures around so that
occupational health receives a higher priority and greater
account is taken of the impact of work on health to the benefit
of primary care patients, workers, and employers?
