This feedback benefits patients, GPs and

gastroenterology teams.

This indicated that nurse-led education and support

strategies for consumers were effective.

This efficiency gain was due to CNC feedback to GPs

and significantly reduced the burden on the standard

medical clinics.

This increased productivity showed that GPs and

patients were finding the clinic accessible and that

clinical need was being met.
