Persistent GP turnover
The study found that 8% of GPs worked in persistent high turnover practices and showed a clear relationship between GP job satisfaction and high turnover. Previous research has focused on intentions to leave or smaller samples, but individual and work characteristics associated with turnover have been less well understood. This study addresses this research gap through analysis of a large dataset of GPs. It found that GPs’ sense of autonomy, belonging, and competence are significantly lower in practices with persistent turnover.
