Setting boundaries when delivering good general practice care - Angela Mason

May 4, 2026 · 48 min

Show notes

Professionalism and appropriate boundaries are foundational to safe, effective general practice. Maintaining clear boundaries protects patients, supports clinical objectivity, and safeguards practitioners from ethical and legal risk. GP supervisors play a critical role in modelling these behaviours and explicitly teaching registrars how to navigate complex, real-world situations.

This podcast discusses the responsibilities of a GP under the code of conduct for medical practitioners in Australia. It examines case scenarios and looks at what the regulator expects of a registered medical practitioner.
