Well done Dr Deeley!
Congratulations to Dr Sarah Deeley, she has just be appointed as an approved GP Trainer. Kings Medical Practice is an approved GP Training Practice and Dr Deeley is now the fourth approved GP Trainer in the practice. In order for young doctors to become GPs they have to undertake a three year training programme. Half of this time is spent in approved GP Training Practices like Kings Medical Practice.
Our trainees will have already done two years in hospital posts since they qualified and then be either at the start or end of their training programme. Most of our trainees will be in the last year year of their training programme so although they are still quite junior they will have been qualified for at least four years.
During their time with us they have two tutorials a week and their work is closely supervised. After each surgery session they are allocated a more senior doctor to debrief them about the patients they have seen and any queries they may have had. In addition if they have any questions about patients when they are seeing them they will nip into to see their supervising doctor between their patients.
An important part of their training is in improving consultation skills. We do this through reviewing video recordings of their consultations. For young doctors seeing themselves consult is an immensely powerful tool to help them improve their consulting skills. I am sure that if you have had an appointment at the surgery then sometime you will have been asked if the doctor could video record their consultation and our trainees are immensely grateful for you giving them permission to record their consultations.
In order for Dr Deeley to become a trainer she has had to do a Postgraduate Certificate of Primary Care Education at Leeds University, have supervision sessions and start helping out with our current trainees. She gets her own trainee in February.
Well done Sarah!
