The role of your trainers

[/fusion_title][fusion_tabs design=”classic” layout=”horizontal” justified=”yes” backgroundcolor=”” inactivecolor=”” bordercolor=”#00bcd4″ icon=”” icon_position=”” icon_size=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=””][fusion_tab title=”Clinical Supervisor” icon=””]

The Clinical Supervisor

1.Should be involved with teaching and training the Post Graduate Dr In Training (PGDIT) in the workplace.

2. Must support the PGDIT in various ways:

a) Direct supervision, in the ward, the community or the consulting room

b) Close but not direct supervision, e.g. in the next door room, reviewing cases and process during and/or after a session

c) Regular discussions, review of cases and feedback

3. May delegate some clinical supervision to other members of clinical team as long as the team member clearly understands the role and the trainee is informed. The PGDIT must know who is providing clinical supervision at all times

4. Will perform workplace-based assessments for the trainee and will delegate performance of WPBA’s to appropriate members of the multi-disciplinary team

5. Will provide regular review during the placement, both formally and informally to ensure that the trainee is obtaining the necessary experience. This will include ensuring that the trainee obtains the required supervised experience in practical procedures and receives regular constructive feedback on performance.

[/fusion_tab][fusion_tab title=”Educational Supervisor” icon=””]

Your Educational Supervisor:

  1. Works with individual PGDIT’s to develop and facilitate an individual learning plan that addresses their educational needs. The learning plan will guide learning that incorporates the domains of knowledge, skills and attitudes.
  2. Will act as a resource for PGDIT’s who seek specialty information and guidance.
  3. Will liaise with the Specialty/Programme tutor and other members of the department to ensure that all are aware of the learning needs of the PGDIT.
  4. Will oversee and on occasions, perform, the trainee’s workplace-based assessments.
  5. Will monitor the PGDIT’s attendance at formal education sessions, their completion of audit projects and other requirements of the Programme.
  6. Should contribute as appropriate to the formal education programme.
  7. Will produce structured reports as required by the School/Deanery.
  8. In order to support trainees, will: –

a) Oversee the education of the PGDIT, act as their mentor and ensure that they are making the necessary clinical and educational progress.

b) Meet the PGDIT at the earliest opportunity (preferably in the first week of the programme), to ensure that the trainee understands the structure of the programme, the curriculum, portfolio and system of assessment and to establish a supportive relationship. At this first meeting the educational agreement should be discussed with the trainee and the necessary paperwork signed and a copy kept by both parties.

c) Ensure that the PGDIT receives appropriate career guidance and planning.

d) Provide the PGDIT with opportunities to comment on their training and on the support provided and to discuss any problems they have identified.

[/fusion_tab][fusion_tab title=”Training Programme Director” icon=””]

Your Training Programme Director (TPD):

  1. Should inform and support College and Specialty tutors to ensure that all aspects of clinical placements fulfil the specific programme requirements.
  2. Oversees the progression of trainees through the programme and devises mechanisms for the delivery of co- ordinated educational supervision, pastoral support and career guidance.
  3. Manages PGDIT performance issues in line with the policies of the Training School/Deanery and Trust and support trainers and tutors in dealing with any trainee in difficulty.
  4. Ensures that those involved in supervision and assessment are familiar with programme requirements.
  5. Will provide clear evidence of the delivery, uptake and effectiveness of learning for trainees in all aspects of the curriculum.
  6. Should organise and ensure delivery of a teaching programme based on the curriculum covering clinical, specialty and generic topics.
  7. Will attend local and deanery education meetings as appropriate.
  8. Will be involved in recruitment of PGDIT.
  9. Ensures that procedures for consideration and approval of LTFT (Less Than Full Time Trainees), OOPT (Out of Programme Training) and OOPR (Out of Programme Research) are fair, timely and efficient.
  10. Records information required by local, regional and national quality control processes and provides necessary reports.
  11. Takes a lead in all aspects of assessment and appraisal for trainees. This incorporates a lead role in organisation and delivery of ARCP. The Tutor/Training Programme Director will provide expert support, leadership and training for assessors (including in WPBA) and ARCP panel members.
