| pubmed-article:11469369 | pubmed:abstractText | In most health authorities in the UK, general public health physicians provide out-of-hours cover for specialists in communicable disease control. Although communicable disease control was part of their specialist training, there is no current formal mechanism to enable these doctors to keep up to date. The Faculty of Public Health Medicine has an active Continuing Professional Development Programme. A new initiative aimed to assess the knowledge of general public health physicians who take part in on-call communicable disease control rotas, or may do so in the future, by means of an educational clinical audit exercise. | lld:pubmed |
