Comparison of psychogeriatric domiciliary visit service between urban and suburban sectors
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2018
Abstract
This study presents a comparison between the domiciliary consultation services in urban and suburban sectors of the Croydon Health District. Urban general practitioners requested less domiciliary visits (DV) and tended to be less satisfied with this service than their suburban counterparts. Sociodemographic factors such as population density and multi-ethnicity in the urban sector may be responsible for a smaller referral rate and the degree of satisfaction with the psychogeriatric DV service in Croydon.
