If you have a problem during your ST2 GP placement, please contact Sarah or Helen
COVID information: Due to social distancing regulations teaching sessions will mostly be done via MS Teams or Zoom
The ST2s have a separate HDR programme which is for ST2s in their GP placement. We will be looking in detail at the consultation during HDR. We will cover consultation models and communications
skills, and learn from video analysis and group work. We also plan to offer some chronic disease management during the ST2 programme. The programme will be flexible, according to your learning
needs, so please do feedback if there is anything you would especially like to be covered.
Half day release sessions start at 2pm, please be prompt. A
All ST2s will be expected to attend induction and all the ST study days which are on a 3 year rolling programme (highlighted below in RED). Please remember to tell your trainer or
consultant that you will be out of the practice/hospital for the whole day on these occassions. Lunches are provided.
All day sessions are highlighted in red
