Care of acutely ill people present unpredictably in general practice, interrupting normal work routines and requiring an urgent response, risk assessment and management.

Care of Children and Young People is usually delivered outside secondary care and requires good primary care to deliver improved health outcomes.

Care of Older Adults requires management of co-morbidity, communication difficulties, polypharmacy and an emphasis on a patient centred holistic approach.
