General practitioner (GP) competencies were defined using three studies. The findings highlight the need to consider personal attributes alongside academic and clinical skills for GP recruitment and training.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • General Practice Research

Background:

  • The evolving role of general practitioners (GPs) presents challenges.
  • High postgraduate attrition rates in medicine (up to 19%) necessitate a review of GP roles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a comprehensive competency model for the general practitioner (GP) role.

Main Methods:

  • Three studies were conducted: focus groups with 35 GPs, behavioral coding of 33 GP-patient consultations, and interviews with 21 patients.
  • Data were triangulated from GPs, patient consultations, and patient perspectives.

Main Results:

  • A competency model with 11 categories and behavioral descriptions was developed.
  • Key competencies identified include empathy, communication, clinical knowledge, conceptual thinking, and pressure management.

Conclusions:

  • The derived competencies suggest personal attributes are crucial for GP selection and training, beyond academic and clinical skills.
  • This competency model can inform the design of future GP selection techniques.
