Study morning for supervisors! Friday 10th February at Taunton Racecourse - Supervising clinical staff in general practice? Roadmap or other Educational Supervisor? The training Hub are running this free study morning for those who are supervising practitioners on a roadmap to practice, ACP qualification or other educational pathway. We will be offering practical workshops utilising Workplace based assessment tools such as COTs and CBD’s with opportunities to share practice and benchmark against others. We will also look at digital ways to capture PSQs and MSFQ’s, how to use the RCGP capability document for verification. Other areas can be determined by what you require - please email our supervision fellows Liz or Jodie ( Elizabeth.Oxley@SomersetFT.nhs.uk , Jodie.Smith@SomersetFT.nhs.uk ) with details of what you need help with in advance.

Paramedic FCP (Masters) Taught Route - funded places available - are still a few funded places available for Paramedics working in primary care on the University of Cumbria FCP 60 credit Masters course starting in April. The course is remotely taught and consists of three modules. This is ideal for paramedic practitioners needing to develop (particularly if new to primary care) or complete the HEE Roadmap to FCP level who are not on any other Advanced Practice pathway. Further details and the application can be found here . Our Paramedic Ambassador Catherine Hayden ( catherine.hayden@nhs.net ) is always happy to provide support and advice regarding the many development options available for paramedics.
