Exploring what GP registrars consider distinctive to consultations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients: a mixed-methods study.

This study suggests that overall, GP registrars want to improve the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, but do not want their consultations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients to be distinctive. Registrars appeared to approach all consultations in a similar manner using predominantly patient-centred care principles. Given the importance of a culturally safe consultation, it is important for us to consider how to increasingly transform these learners and teach cultural safety in this context.
