17
Supporting Information
• During annual appraisals, doctors will use supporting
information to demonstrate that they continue to meet
the principles and values set out in Good Medical
Practice.
• The supporting information will reflect the scope of
your particular specialist practice and other
professional roles.
18
Supporting Information
• What do you do?
• How do you keep up to date?
• How do you review your practice?
• How do you respond to feedback on your practice
from colleagues and patients?
19
Information for Appraisal
Four Domains of Good Medical Practice
1. Knowledge, Skills and performance
2. Safety and Quality
3. Communication, Partnership and Teamwork
4. Maintaining Trust
20
Annually
• CPD and PDP
• Quality Improvement Activity
• Significant Events
• Review of complaints and compliments
• Health
• Probity
21
Every 5 years
• Feedback from colleagues – MSF
• Feedback from patients – PSQ (CARE/GMC)
22
Discussing Supporting Information
at appraisal
• Relevant to your work?
• Active participation?
• Evaluation and reflection on the results?
• Action taken– if appropriate?
• Demonstration of outcome or maintenance of quality
- Closing the loop
23
Quality Improvement Activity
(i) clinical audit – evidence of effective participation in clinical audit or
equivalent quality improvement exercise that measures the care with
which an individual doctor has been directly involved
(ii) review of clinical outcomes – where robust, attributable and validated
data are available. This could include morbidity and mortality statistics
or complication rates where these are routinely recorded for local or
national reports
(iii) case review or discussion – a documented account of interesting or
challenging cases that a doctor has discussed with a peer, another
specialist or within a multi-disciplinary team
(iv) audit and monitor the effectiveness of a teaching programme
(v) evaluate the impact and effectiveness of a piece of health policy or
management practice
24
Preparing for the interview
• Identify positives from the supporting information
• Identify areas which could have been done differently
and/or areas for development
• Prepare loose structure and the opening words to
initiate the discussion
25
Information and analysis
• How complete is the information?
• Is there anything missing?
• What are the key issues?
• Has the appraisee identified these?
• Has the appraisee reflected on the material?
• Has the appraisee considered/or implemented change
as a result of undertaking this activity?
26
Role of Appraiser
• Refrain from telling the appraisee what to do
• Encourage the appraisee’s reflections and solutions
before offering your own
• Be evaluative but avoid an overtly judgmental
approach where appraisee feels criticised/labelled
• Use descriptive language
• Consider carefully before offering specific advice
27
Role of Appraiser
• You can share information, make suggestions and act
as a resource and identify areas which could be used
for further development
• Be specific when commenting and offering own view
• Focus on aspects of appraisee’s behaviour which can
be changed
• Structure discussion so that specific outcomes/goals
to be achieved are addressed in each section
28
Judgement?
• Appraisal supporting information reflects the doctor’s
scope of work and has been presented in accordance
with GMC Guidance
• Information has been reviewed and summary agreed
• Appraiser has no reason to believe that the doctor is
not practising in line with the principles of Good
Medical Practice
• ‘On track’ for Revalidation
29
Communication Skills Exercise
• Practice in interview management
• Questioning
• Giving Feedback
• Practice for ‘mini’ appraisals to come on day 2
30
Material to talk about as an
‘appraisee’
• Real issue from your work
• Current or historical
• Carries a degree of emotional charge
• Is suitable for a 10 minute practice session
• A ‘hot topic’ but not too ‘hot’!
31
Pendleton rules for feedback
• Clarify any matters of fact
• The learner describes what they did well.
• The observer(s) describes what was done well.
• The learner describes what could be improved.
• The observer(s) describes what could be improved
and offers suggestions on how it could be improved.
32
Appraisal Summary Forms
(Form 4)
• A core tangible outcome of the appraisal process.
• A record of the interview.
• Appraisers need to put as much effort into drafting the
summary form as other components of appraisal.
• Can and may be viewed by other legitimate
stakeholders eg: Responsible Officer
33
• Appraisals are professional interviews
• Must be robust, based on attributable supporting
information
• Record of appraisal interview to be accurate,
comprehensive, clear and effective
34
Current Summary Forms
Independent review of GP summary forms conducted
in 2006 suggested:
• Were too short
• Omitted relevant information discussed at the
interview
35
An effective summary
• Meaningful
• Specific
• Objective
• Avoids assumptions
• Avoids collusion
36
What does this mean?
• Objective – relevant with clear reference to supporting
information reviewed
• Highlights omissions & material needed for next year’s
appraisal, expressed where possible in positive
language.
• Meaningful statements that can be understood by a
third party, not present at the interview.
37
• Specificity – avoid bland or ambiguous comments e.g.
“fine”; “OK”; “more of the same”.
Needs to be specific to the appraisee.
• Reference to reflective practice
• Records appraisee’s achievements, changes to
practice and progress
• Aide memoire for appraisee and future appraiser; sign
post for next appraisal
38
Avoids Assumptions
a. “Dr X has a very healthy life style and obviously has
no health issues”
b. “Dr X described his life style as healthy & stated that
he had no health issues”
c. “Dr X has a very heavy & stressful work load & I
raised the possibility of burn out”
d. “ We discussed Dr X’s workload which she
described as full & varied. She stated that she finds
her work fulfilling and stimulating”
39
Avoids Collusions
a) “given the nature of his speciality and location, Dr
X’s isolation limits his ability to reflect on his work”.
b) “we discussed Dr X’s view that his specialty and
location affected his ability to reflect on his work.”
40
Achievements
• Use positive language
• Describe areas of work that give the appraisee
satisfaction and their feelings about what has been
achieved.
41
Integrity
You must be satisfied that the summary you complete is
an accurate reflection of the key areas and supporting
information addressed & discussed at the interview, and
that you have not made assumptions or colluded with the
appraisee.
