All
registrars need to complete the new nMRCGP which replaced Summative
Assessment in August 2007. This is organised through the RCGP. New Registrars must familiarise themselves with the requirements as
there are deadlines by which certain assessments must be done. Your
Trainer will, of course, also offer appropriate help and advice.
Click Here
to visit the nMRCGP portal of the RCGP website.
The
workplace based assessment (WPBA) is an important part of the nMRCGP and
you will need to complete an e-Portfolio in much the same way as you may
have done during your ST1 and ST2 years. An excellent guide to 'making
the e-Portfolio work for you' and written by the Yorkshire and the
Humber Deanery can be downloaded by
clicking here. I would strongly advise all registrars to read this
document at an early stage.

GPnotebook is a system
designed to provide a concise synopsis of the entire field of clinical
medicine with material organised systematically to ensure rapid retrieval
of information.
The
content of GPnotebook is based on clinical practice in the United Kingdom
and provides a clinical reference guide for general practitioners and
medical students; it may also be a useful reference resource for other
health professionals. As well as being a clinical reference guide,
GPnotebook also aims to be a tool for clinical education, clinical
governance and continuing professional development.
This
site is great for Registrars who want to look up something that doesn't
come up every day. For example you can't remember whether to treat Bell's
palsy with steroids, or perhaps you find a 3 year old with retractile testes
and don't know whether to refer or watch.

Medical Requirements for Driving cars and lorries - HGV/LGV
We often
need to know how to advise patients about their medical condition and
driving. The DVLA provides specific criteria on a broad range of medical
conditions. For example - how soon can you drive after a myocardial
infarction or bypass ? For how long is a driving ban after a first
seizure ? Can insulin dependent diabetics hold a HGV (class 2) Licence
? Confidentiality issues etc. For answers to all these questions
and more visit the medical advisors section of the DVLA website at
http://www.dvla.gov.uk/medical/ataglance.aspx
Unlike the written guidelines the DVLA send to all GPs from
time to time, the website is constantly updated to provide latest advice.
Remember you will be expected to know much of the basic
advice for the nMRCGP examination.
