Area of Science:

  • Forensic Medicine
  • Medical Education
  • Physician Training

Background:

  • The Faculty of Forensic and Legal Medicine (FFLM) aimed to develop training for Principal Forensic Physicians (PFPs) as educational supervisors.
  • The Metropolitan Police Service has since discontinued the PFP role, leaving a gap in supervision and training for London's forensic physicians (FPs) and forensic medical examiners (FMEs).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess PFPs' knowledge of their educational supervisor roles.
  • To identify PFPs' training needs in supervising forensic physicians and assistant forensic physicians.
  • To inform the development of a structured training program for educational supervisors in clinical forensic medicine.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire survey of PFPs in London.
  • A focus group discussion at the FFLM annual conference to explore preliminary survey findings.

Main Results:

  • Survey results indicated varying levels of knowledge among PFPs regarding their educational supervisory roles.
  • PFPs identified specific training needs related to the induction of assistant FPs and the overall development of forensic physicians.
  • Focus group discussions highlighted key areas for curriculum development, particularly concerning appraisal skills.

Conclusions:

  • There is a significant need for the FFLM to establish a formal training program for educational supervisors in clinical forensic medicine.
  • Training should prioritize appraisal skills and address the specific needs identified by PFPs.
  • Addressing these training gaps is crucial for maintaining standards in forensic medical education and practice.
