The MEC for Health in Gauteng went also to Chiawelo Community Practice (led by a family physician) and got a full brief on it. Look here for more. She listened intently and then said that CCP must be rolled out across the province of Gauteng. She summoned the acting District Family Physician, Dr Jimmy Akii, and the senior district management team of Johannesburg that same evening to a meeting the next morning where she wanted a plan for rollout. She says that rollout must occur to other wards in Chiawelo, in key sites led by family physicians and then in support of all Ward-based Outreach Teams in Johannesburg. Family physicians met this morning to discuss this and plan a planning meeting on Monday next and then a presentation of proposal for way forward in Johannesburg to the monthly meeting of the district management team (extended to all facility managers)  next week Wednesday.
