OBJECTIVE
To identify the factors that contribute to patients' long-term attendance at a family practice teaching unit.
DESIGN
Qualitative method of focus groups.
SETTING
A community-based family practice teaching unit in southwestern Ontario.
PARTICIPANTS
Patients who had been coming to St Joseph's Family Medical Centre for more than 15 years were purposefully selected to participate.
METHOD
Five focus groups composed of patients who had been affiliated with one of the three practices at the Centre for more than 15 years explored factors contributing to long-term attendance.
MAIN FINDINGS
Four key themes were identified as the primary factors contributing to long-term attendance: the relationship context, the team concept, professional responsibility and attitudes, and comprehensive and convenient care.
CONCLUSION
The resource-rich era of medical care, during which participants formulated their views and opinions about the factors contributing to their long-term attendance at a family practice teaching unit, has come to a close. The findings of this study provide important information that could help maintain one of the basic tenets of family medicine-continuity of care.
