How ready is your practice?

Your Practice Team and Teamwork

These questions are aimed at helping to identify learning needs and organisational issues.

  • Is there a lead GP and/ or Nurse for COPD in your practice?
  • What is the level of COPD knowledge within your team?
  • Is there a need to review the educational needs within your team?
  • Does the team meet to discuss complex cases and review care for those COPD patients who have multiple needs?
  • When COPD patients are reviewed do they get directed to clinical staff with knowledge of COPD?
  • Do the reception team (who make the appointments) know which clinical staff review COPD patients?
  • What links are there with secondary care and other respiratory interested groups?
  • Is someone in the practice trained to perform diagnostic quality spirometry? If not, where is the practice spirometry performed?
