Aims of session
What is a trainee in difficulty?
What is the process once they are identified?
How is an educational diagnosis made and management plan arrived at?
How is the TID monitored?
Scenarios
QuestionsSlide3
What is a trainee in difficulty?
Someone who cannot achieve a satisfactory outcome in assessments
Someone who is not performing at the level expected for their ST grade
What is the size of the problem across NCEL?Slide4
Difficulty, and individual variation!

What is the process once a TID is identified?
There is a flowchart which is quite complex to look at but we will work through it in stagesSlide6Slide7
History
From the learner ( example of differing view point of learner from past educators, global / holistic history)
Past education and assessments ( including prior to medical qualification)
From previous educators, e portfolio/ ARCP reports
From past patient feedback/complaints/events
From past MRCGP assessmentsSlide8
Examination !
Starting if possible gently, as if tension may behave in atypical fashion
Informal feedback and observation as settles into the team. Engagement and motivation
Learning styles ( look at depth of learning eg. Blooms taxonomy)
Learning needs assessment ( very important where any learner difficulty anticipated)Slide9

Diagnosis
Of course may not be simple and may well need outside help and reports etc to decide
RDM-p, Tim NorfolkSlide11
RDM-p
In essence, general practice involves a subtle interaction between three core activities: relationship, diagnostics and management. They could perhaps be visualised as three interlocking ‘cogs in the wheel’, for which professionalism then provides the essential oil. Within the dynamic interaction between these three areas lies every component of the job, though most attention centres on relationship and diagnostics.Slide12Slide13
Once you‟ve teased out the nature of the performance difficulty into these four areas, the model then gets you to explore their
causal
and
influential
factors; again in a structured way (using something called the SKAPE framework - Skills, Knowledge, Attitudes, Personal qualities and External factorsSlide14
Now use SKAPE on left to work out the causal and influential factors to issues on rightSlide15
So a diagnosis has been made – what next?
How is the TID monitored?
Back to the flow chartSlide16Slide17
Scenarios and group workSlide18
Case 1
Number of “ missed diagnoses “ declared by trainer
Patient complaints re manner and concentration
Team complaints about odd behaviour
Past history ? Reasons?Slide19
Case 2
Trainer very stressed on the phone
Learner managing work only very slowly
Not reflective
Many detailed discussions about how to achieve this, no progress so far
Struggles to make any diagnoses, asks trainer nearly every patient
Path results and paperwork left in large pilesSlide20
Case 3
Significant history of physical health problem
Also appears anxious during tutorials and with feedback being given
Tending to ask peers or salaried doctor rather than trainer / partners for opinion
Writes very long portfolio entries, and reflective
Surgeries over run very badly, been tearful a couple of times when patients become irritatedSlide21
Feedback on scenarios
Case 1 diagnosis and plan
Case 2 diagnosis and plan
Case 3 diagnosis and planSlide22
What can a trainer do?
Learner must accept that they have a need to change and take ownership of their progressSlide23
Examples of interventions for learners in difficulty
Increased joint surgeries, and two way observations – hands on help and “ modelling “ on trainers skills. “
COT “plus” including video for self reflection
MSF very important
CBD “ plus” describe method and techniques
Observed examination and practical procedures
Detailed review of diagnoses and mx plans- increased random case analysisSlide24
Issues
Documentation – who writes what and where if there are concerns?
Information sharing – where several agencies are involved what principles should be followed?
What happens at ARCP panels?
What support can I expect if I take a TID?Slide25
Questions?
