Member survey - closing this weekend. Please participate

We're seeking your input on two different matters.
Strategy
The first is your thoughts on what should be in the future College strategy.
The Executive Committee (ExC) is meeting in mid October to discuss the strategy for 2024 onwards. We're seeking members' opinions and input.
We'll also hold a short online meeting for all interested members on the Sunday after Bootcamp (17 September).

Retired and distinguished Fellows
The ExC is also seeking your thoughts about whether we permit fully retired Fellows to use any form of post-nominal letters, and whether the College should adopt some form of award or recognition for exemplary service or contribution to the College.

The questions for all topics are in one survey, available online. We'll close the survey on 21 August so we can prepare a report for the ExC meeting taking place that week.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to provide your input.

Research grant reminder

The College sets aside $10,000 each year to support research (or research-like projects) in urgent care. The College shares this between doctors whose research/project has been recognised as supporting the College’s strategic objectives or advances urgent care in some way.

Nurse practitioner discussion document consultation

The College has developed a discussion document on the employment, training, and potential for Nurse Practitioners in Urgent Care Clinic settings.
The catalyst for this document was multiple requests by NP for access to the urgent care training programme for doctors with a subsequent award of Fellowship by the College. The College’s position is that NP training is best vested in an NP training body, and the award of any appropriate qualification similarly so.
Please provide any comments to the general manager (adrian@rnzcuc.org.nz) by 29 September.
