A questionnaire on the management of alcohol problems was sent to 467 general practitioners. Of the 312 who replied, nine tenths thought that they had a legitimate role in working with patients with drinking problems, but less than a half thought that they were adequately equipped to perform this role. Only two fifths felt motivated to work with drinkers, less than a third were satisfied with the way in which they worked with drinkers, and fewer than one in 10 obtained work satisfaction from working with drinkers. Only 29% of doctors regularly gave advice to patients to reduce alcohol consumption, but 56% believed that their advice was effective. Doctors who had positive attitudes to working with drinkers undertook more work related to alcohol problems in their practice. There is a need to provide further education for general practitioners about alcohol related matters, and this education should include advice on intervention with heavy drinkers.
一份关于酒精问题管理的调查问卷被发送给了467名全科医生。在回复的312名医生中，十分之九的人认为他们在与有饮酒问题的患者合作方面有合理的作用，但不到一半的人认为他们有足够的能力履行这一职责。只有五分之二的人有动力与饮酒者合作，不到三分之一的人对他们与饮酒者的合作方式感到满意，不到十分之一的人从与饮酒者的合作中获得工作满意度。只有29%的医生经常建议患者减少酒精摄入量，但56%的人认为他们的建议是有效的。对与饮酒者合作持积极态度的医生在其执业中承担了更多与酒精问题相关的工作。有必要为全科医生提供关于酒精相关问题的进一步教育，并且这种教育应该包括关于干预酗酒者的建议。
