Work-based feedback conversations with GP teachers.

Introduction: Feedback may play out in the general practice workplace less usefully than anticipated by educators. We investigated work-based feedback conversations about directly observed student tasks embedded in the supervisor's clinical consultations with patients.

Methods: Feedback conversations between GP teachers and medical students and subsequent student reflections were audio-recorded.

Heard, known, and safe in general practice? An interview study with patients with severe and persistent mental illness.

Background: Although GPs provide care to many patients with severe and persistent mental illness, the role and skillset of the GP in this space are contested. Patients are less satisfied with GP care of mental health than physical health issues.

Aim: To explore patient expectations and experiences of GP roles in their mental health, and identify opportunities for improving mental health care in general practice.
