Developing a joint GP vocational training scheme and paediatric modular teaching programme: the way forward
Abstract:
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN IN THIS AREA • GP VTS trainees normally attend separate GP teaching programmes from SHOs in specialty posts. • Specialty teaching programmes have been hospital orientated and lacking in primary care relevance. WHAT THIS WORK ADDS • This joint GP/paediatric course was highly rated by both GP and paediatric trainees. • GP VTS trainees were even more positive about the course than paediatric SHOs. • Integrated teaching between primary and secondary care is the way forward. SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE RESEARCH • Evaluation of integrated GP/specialty teaching programmes to ensure that they are of relevance to all attendees.
