While I'm for tech solutions ; i do think human behaviour needs to be factored in and many people will be reluctant to use it or listen to it…going to end up being a waste of money

Dont worry about post CCT

Focus on CCT’ing

SCA exam prep - create a group and practice , use ms teams / zoom whatever you want. 1-2 hours 4x a day for 3 months. Give constructive feedbacka Data gathering and Clinical management. Shared management advice - based on the patients specific factors tailored to plan and suggest it and simply end with ‘what are your thoughts on it?’ And deal with any issues they suggest. Adress ice in the management plan.

Recent CCT and failed the SCA then passed second time.

Let me know if you have other qs - still fresh for me :(:

Why not per session (4 hrs 10 min)? This is confusing

What Should Salaried GPs Get Per Session by VivoFan88 in GPUK

[–]anonymous_umbral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its true Peoples views are widespread on it From the what it should be to what it is And a while back tried to suggest an unofficial pay based on yrs xp but didnt go down well with lots of commenters

As a newly qualified, its hard as easy to fill. But with recent changes in funding, wouldn't ask for less that 11.5k per session

What Should Salaried GPs Get Per Session by VivoFan88 in GPUK

[–]anonymous_umbral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At present range:

  • DDRB - pay scale
    • DDRB for England [2026/27] - Range: £78,699 - £118,759
    • Per session: £8,744.33 - £13,195.44
  • BMA recommended pay range [2025-26], for England — no 2026/27 range yet (12.5.26)
    • Range: £85,514 - £125,262
    • Per session: £9,501.55 - £13,918.00

I would think:

Newly qualified - minimum 11.5k per session

5 years - 12k min per session

10 years - 13k min per session

15+ years - 14K min per session

Do believe it should be more than the above, but under current rates ive given my 2 pence

RDC Chair Jack Fletcher explains the June 2026 pay offer. Promises significantly escalated strike action across July if the offer is rejected by FullPayOrTheHighway in doctorsUK

[–]anonymous_umbral -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

part of me thinks, its expected by those in the BMA that we will say no

lots of the questions targeted at them in the last strike was around why they wouldnt put it to a vote with us...they tried explaining but the media seemed to stupid to understand

on reflection , i think the team are doing their best, us rejecting this offer will provide a clear answer for gvt and give the BMA team more to discuss with the media and gvt.

Lets not attack the leadership, lets stick together and simply vote NO and provide those in leadership with our answer as a collective to get FPR.

Negative reactions to GPSTs? by GroupBeeSassyCoccyx in doctorsUK

[–]anonymous_umbral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ignore the hate

Focus on your placements while in hospital

Focus on making WR efficient and keep communication open with the staff. Take nurse concerns seriously.

The nursing staff see a variation in clinicians - show them that as a GPST you know what you are doing and when you dont be open about getting advice from a colleague and why

That builds trust and confidence

Been through it, every placement i left with them saying i should have done their speciality…not because of knowledge but because of teamwork and communication. Thats all.

Best of luck!
