[Do General Practitioners have Experience with Social Care Points? A Berlin-Wide Survey]. / Haben Hausärzt*innen Erfahrungen mit Pflegestützpunkten? Eine berlinweite Fragebogenerhebung.

Primary care for multimorbid patients involves social counseling in addition to medical care. Community care points are established institutions for social counseling at district level in Berlin. A Berlin-wide questionnaire survey examined primary care physicians' knowledge of and experience with community care points. 700 questionnaires were analysed exploratively and descriptively. General practitioners were only partially familiar with the services of community care points (60% barely or not at all). 57% of the general practitioners stated that they already had contact with community care points. General practitioners who had not yet had contact with a community care point recommended other advice centers for social (76%) and care-related advice (79%) to their patients. A majority of general practitioners expressed a wish to get more information about community care points.
