GP Guidelines and referral forms

The NCCP has worked with the Irish College of General Practitioners (ICGP) and hospital based cancer specialists in the development and implementation of National GP Referral Guidelines for breast, lung, prostate and melanoma cancers. These guidelines are accompanied by disease-specific standardised referral forms which assist the GP to document important clinical features which helps the hospital to triage patients.
