Cardiovascular Disease

The Division supports general practice in management of cardiovascular disease through collaboration with the Heart Foundation to provide education and resources for GPs and practice staff. 

One of the key strategies for the Heart Foundation's Prevention in Practice Project is the development of online learning modules for General Practitioners, Practice Nurses and other Health Professionals using the Royal Australian College of General Practitioner's gplearning program portal.
