AYUSO RAYA, Candelaria et al. The Practice of Family Medicine within the National Health Service. Rev Clin Med Fam [online]. 2011, vol.4, n.1, pp.57-68. ISSN 2386-8201.

In the months of April, July and August 2010, the authors of this article set themselves the objective of learning about Primary Care in the National Health Service (NHS) from first hand experience. The active participation of each of us in a reference primary care model stems from a strong personal motivation. Our findings and impressions, clearly influenced by the different periods in our career, were very useful in preparing this article. Through them we could assess the structural and organisational differences of the work places, the team analysis, the training and the figure that today is the main protagonist of a pioneering health model in Europe.

Keywords : Delivery of Health Care; Primary Health Care; Family Physician.
