How can a PCT follow up educational recommendations if the hospital doctor in question simply says the matter is in hand and everything is going well?
It is usually helpful if the educational plan is put on a more formal basis so that educational progress can be carefully monitored and competence demonstrated in the areas of concern. The first point of contact for the Medical Director and this doctor will usually be the Regional Specialty Adviser, who may be able to arrange for a re-training attachment, if necessary out of region. However, if the concerns relate to generic areas such as team working, patient relationships or personal organisation and they are not clinical or specialty specific, then the specialty adviser, on behalf of the RGOG, can refer the doctor to the Career Development Unit for personal coaching.
