GP Registrar Insights, come and discuss.....Portfolio Problems

Welcome to our peer-led educational programme for all GP registrars! We aim to create an informal space for registrars to come together once a month and share their questions, thoughts and worries about various topics related to GP training. Each session will have a theme, varying from exams to post-CCT preparations, with plenty of scope for future topics to be decided by you. Sessions will be facilitated mainly by other registrars with experience/an interest in the topic.

Active Bystander Training

Witnessing verbal and physical abuse, discrimination, racism and micro-aggression effects everyone!

This session has been developed to support ALL members of the Primary Care Team. It includes self-coaching techniques to help you keep a cool head when you’re faced with a challenging situation, and assertive language devices which you can use to make sure your voice is heard if you want to raise a concern. The session focuses on challenging inappropriate workplace behaviours from patients and colleagues and will give you the tools needed to be able to do this confidently.
