Postal survey of family health service authorities; postal survey of general practitioners - selection, response rates and characteristics of the sample; postal survey of general practitioners - the findings; interview study of members of primary health care teams - research methods and characteristics of the sample; interview study of members of primary health care teams - the findings; summary of results and conclusions.
Paperback Primary health care services are the foundation of the health service, and the scope of their role in health maintenance is increasing. As high consultation rates indicate, they play a particularly important role in the health care of black and minority ethnic elderly people. However, very little is known about how they fulfil this role, the issues they encounter, and how these are approached. This study shows the extent to which general practice is addressing the particular needs of elderly people from this sector of society.
