Important information - Registrars
|
Urgent Care Course online
|
We have a small team updating the information in the online urgent care course. The team have almost completed module one (Medicine), and work on the remaining modules continues. Registrars completing the Urgent Care Course should focus on reading module one for now, and the remaining modules from April onwards.

Important information - clinical audits - everyone
|
|
|
Patient Satisfaction Survey (PSS)
|
We still receive PSS that have been handled by the doctors themselves. The reception/administration team in your clinic are to hand out, and collect, the PSS forms, then send them to the College without review by the doctor.
|
Clinical Notes Audit (CNA)
|
You MUST anonymise the clinical notes you send to us by removing all details that identify the patient. Keep clinically important information, such as ethnicity, age, and sex, visible. If we receive non-anonymised clinical notes we will ask doctors to resubmit them with patient details removed.

Boot camp news
At the recent Executive Committee (ExC) meeting, the ExC decided that we would not hold the Boot Camp in the same format as last year. This is due to the significant advanced planning and preparation required at a time that we are yet to appoint a new Director of Professional Development.
There is a good possibility that we will hold something in its place, on the same weekend (18 or 19 September). We are completing an initial feasibility study and hope to provide an update very soon.
