Teaching & Training at The Practice

We are proud to be a teaching practice with two trainers who oversee the
training of qualified doctors from the Mansfield Vocational Training Scheme.
GP Registrars are fully qualified doctors who undertake a period of training in
hospital before coming to General Practice. They have regular debriefs and
assessments within the practice and have to work towards completing the national
General Practice qualification MRCGP.
GP Registrars spend 4-12 months with us. They can be consulted in the same way
as any of the other GPs in the practice.

Video Recording of Consultations
This is an important training tool for registrars to learn about
communication / consultation skills. You may be asked for permission to video
your consultation, and if you are happy, your written consent will be sought.
You will be informed when booking the appointment, if the registrar is videoing
consultations during that session. You have the right to opt out and this will
NOT affect your consultation or care.
All videos are only viewed by the registrar and other GPs in the practice.
Medical Students
The practice regularly welcomes medical students from Nottingham University.
They are usually with us for one morning and will sit in with one of the GPs.
You will be informed on arrival that a medical student is present, and should
you prefer to see the GP without the student present, this is not a problem –
please just let the receptionist know and he/she will inform the doctor.
It is important that students get used to talking to patients and therefore, you
may sometimes be asked if you would mind talking to the student about one or two
of your medical problems. We are always grateful for your help in training our
future doctors, but we do understand if you would like to opt out.
