Method:
This study forms part of a larger evaluation of general practice registrar burnout and wellbeing. Feedback on preliminary guidelines developed from this evaluation was sought through two rounds of consultation within one regional training organisation. Qualitative data were thematically analysed.
Results:
Themes focused on enhancing participants' awareness of resources, providing practical guidance and prioritising burnout prevention. A refined list of strategies and preliminary conceptual framework for registrars, practices, training organisations and the broader medical system were developed.
Discussion:
Principles of communication, flexibility and knowledge were endorsed, as was the need to prioritise wellbeing and enhance trainee support. These findings provide an important step to developing contextualised, preventive interventions for Australian general practice training.
