Addressing systemic workforce challenges in general practice—a qualitative study of general practitioners in Ireland
To address the general practice workforce crisis, systemic reforms, expanded multidisciplinary teams, and practice-level adaptations are needed. The findings reflect the importance of general practitioner involvement in healthcare planning and policy development. These insights will inform targeted policy interventions in Ireland and in healthcare systems facing similar workforce challenges.
