GP Appraisal Annual Report 10
- Appraisal is a confidential
developmental process that underpins a doctor's continuing professional
development (CPD). It seeks to encourage, support and challenge the doctor in
delivering the best care to patients through development of the doctor's
professional skills, knowledge and attitudes. The public expect greater
accountability, proof of competency, and the demonstration of high quality
performance from the profession.
This report covers the last two years of progress toward these stated aims.

Draft GP Appraisal annual report 08 - Following the publication of the White Paper “Trust Assurance and Safety” and the Shipman Report, doctors will now have to demonstrate to the public that they continue to be fit to practice throughout their professional careers. This will be achieved by a system of regular re-licensing and re-certification which together will comprise revalidation. It is clear that appraisal will have a key role in both re-licensing and re-certification. It is also clear that the appraisal process will need to be more robust in order to be “fit for purpose”.
