Our guides to revalidation for doctors at different points in their careers
Our case studies for doctors with patients who can’t give feedback or who have limited patient contact.
Feedback from your patients can give you valuable insight into your performance. If you're a doctor and aren't sure how to collect patient feedback, please speak to your appraiser, responsible officer, suitable person or employer.
If your practice means that you don’t have patients and there are no alternatives, then you should discuss this with your responsible officer or suitable person and agree whether you need to meet this requirement.
Making revalidation recommendations is a core function of responsible officers and suitable persons.
These case studies explore a range of issues that might influence the recommendations you make for your connected doctors.
Resources to help you involve patients in revalidation.
Although we do not recommend any particular approach, our resources may help you to think about ways that lay member participation can make sure that revalidation systems and outcomes reflect patient interests. Resources include a simplified explanation of revalidation and case studies showing how organisations have involved patients.
Our support services who can help you in revalidation.
We help to protect patients and improve medical education and practice in the UK by setting standards for students and doctors. We support them in achieving and exceeding those standards, and take action when they are not met.
