General Practice Registrars
The Gosforth Valley Medical Practice has been always placed a premium on teaching & training, and became a Training Practice for doctors aspiring to become GPs in 2004. Since then, the practice has grown and in 2005 moved into the Gosforth Valley Medical Centre, affording us more room, and in particular, more room to train doctors. We started with a second doctor in training in 2007, and more recently, in 2009 we were approved as a training practice for up to 4 doctors in training at one time.
Although these doctors are not yet qualified as GPs, they have been qualified doctors for at least 2 years, and work at the level of a Registrar. Their General Practice training will last 3 years overall (probably extending to 5 years from 2011 onwards), and is vigorously tested on a continuous basis, with external examinations in Applied Knowledge and Clinical Skills before they are able to qualify as General Practitioners.
As GP Registrars, they are required to have their clinical work supervised by the qualified doctors with whom they work and by whom they are trained. Once qualified, they are then able to work entirely independently, although doctors are encouraged to work in teams for mutual support, life-long learning and accountability.
This is exactly the same as Registrars in hospital training towards independent practice as a Consultant, a specialist in a hospital (secondary) care. Likewise, GP Registrars train towards independent practice as a GP, a specialist in community (primary) care.
Until then, some of the means by which they are assessed include video consultation analysis, debriefs after surgeries, case-based discussions, direct observation of practical skills (e.g. examinations and procedures), structured Multi-Source Feedback from other members of the Primary Health Care Team and Patient Satisfaction Questionnaires. So, video analysis and Patient Satisfaction Questionnaires are the areas where you as patients can directly contribute to the future of our GP Registrars! Thank you for your support.
