NHS Appraisal
The Department of Health has published important documents
concerning appraisal of doctors in training
All doctors in training are required to use this documentation
which also supports the GMC revalidation process.
Although some trusts and most Colleges provide Portfolios and
documentation relating to a specialty for some training grades, these
DH documents should be used in conjunction with them. As Dr David
Graham, who leads on the NHS appraisal process wrote in the covering
letter with this documentation:
"It is important to note that the NHS Appraisal Documentation for
Junior Doctors in not intended to replace College processes and
documentation, but to incorporate and collate all documentation
whether College or Deanery into this agreed framework. We would be
most grateful if you would ensure that all doctors in training are
aware of the requirements and have a Portfolio. The document is also
available on the Department of Health and GMC joint website (http://www.appraisaluk.info)
and will be available within Deaneries."
Information about this documentation has gone electronically to
Directors of Medical Education/Clinical Tutors and Programme Directors
in the South Western Deanery. All trainees and educational supervisors
should be aware of the requirement to use this documentation as part
of their Training Portfolio and should begin to use it as soon as
possible.
