Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY: Analysis of views of general practioners and nurses of interprofessional cooperation between general practititoners and nurses in the ambulatory care of dementia patients is presented.
METHODS: A survey was carried out among general practitioners and nurses caring for community dwelling dementia patients in Hamburg.
RESULTS: The majority of GPs and nurses consider interprofessional cooperation to be good and beneficial for their own work. GPs are generally more positive about the quality of cooperation than nurses. Joint sessions for planning and evaluation of care are seldom. Even so, more GPs than nurses evaluate the frequency of these meetings to be sufficient. Although nurses are more critical about the quality of the cooperation with the GPs, they seldom address the GP to express their criticism.
CONSEQUENCES: To make cooperation work, the matter should be part of the training of both physicians and nurses and the hierarchy between the 2 groups should be reduced.
