In ST2, the GP innovative post has been developed for trainees to spend 50% of their time based in hospital/community led clinics so they can advance their knowledge and skills in specialties that have not been included in their hospital posts.  We have included some suggestions that previous registrars have found useful. Please liase with your allocated practice in ST2 for surgery times prior to organising your hospital/community clinics.

For probity reasons its important to keep a record of your sessions outside the practice. Please download the form and attach to your eportfolio. For important or significant learning events it is best to record this as a separate log entry where you will have a better opportunity to demonstrate what you have learnt or need to learn.

Don't forget out of hours (OOH) sessions when in GP. COGPED state that a minimum of 6 hours for full time doctors is required per month. Therefore in ST1 GP you should have completed 24 hours as OOH. Use the form and save to your eportfolio. For important or significant learning events it is best to record this as a separate log entry where you will have a better opportunity to demonstrate what you have learnt or need to learn.
