Are you:
1. A newly qualified doctor within the first 3 years
post qualification
2. A retainer, a returner or a locum
3. Retired from full time practice or are planning
to retire within the next 2-3 years (this will group
will include former SAGE members)
If you fall into one of the above categories and
would like to have access to a peer support group of
like minded colleagues who will meet on a regular
basis to cover a variety of clinical and
non-clinical issues, then please contact me:
Via email on
sarahhands@fsmail.net
Or via the Department of General Practice, RUH, Bath
BA1 3NG
Or telephone 01225824894; mobile 07880507408
The meetings will normally be held Monday evenings,
at the Department of General Practice, Bath Royal
United Hospital. They have been set up on behalf of
Severn Deanery and are therefore free of charge so
that if you wish to attend, membership of BGPERT is
not mandatory.
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
From November 2008 the two groups sessional
doctors (retainers, returners and locums) and
newly qualified doctors (those within 3 years of
qualifying as a GP) will be combined and a meeting
held monthly instead of on alternate months.
It is likely that the educational requirements of
both groups will be similar and as the numbers
overall are at the moment quite low this will be a
better use of everyones time. It will be possible
to review requirements if and when things change and
reconsider at a later date.
The dates of meetings for
this combined group are therefore as follows:
Monday 17th November 2008
Tuesday 16th December 2008
Monday 19th January 2009
Monday 23rd February 2009
Monday 23rd March 2009
Monday 20th April 2009
Monday 18th May 2009
The meetings will continue to be
held at Bath postgraduate centre at 7.00pm for
7.30pm etc. etc.
The next meeting on Monday 17th November will be on
requirements for appraisal. You are also encouraged
to bring a peer reviewed journal article for
possible discussion.
NB Pre-retirement doctors will continue to hold
separate meetings and the dates for their meetings
are as follows:
Monday 8th December 2008 (in
Bradford on Avon)
Monday 2nd March 2009
Monday 1st June 2009
I would be pleased to hear your
ideas on the educational topics you would like to be
included. Part of the initial meetings for each
group can be used to help decide on the content for
future meetings.
Kind regards
Dr Sarah Hands
GP Educator and Educational Advisor to Severn
