#Reflection #BDBP

[Lewis HJ @DrLewis91]

@better_doctors @CDDFTMedEd Try to reflect on at least as many positive events than negative - if not more! While it's important to learn from any mistakes it's also important to recognise the great things you and your team do and try to keep those going! #learningfromexcellence

[Jonny Guckian @JonnyGucks]

Be specific about what you might do differently in the future - this can feed directly into your next PDP! Any thoughts @SpencerProf @Laura_Schmaura @Rob_Ker @christiplady @NUTHMedEd @monca_ponca @DrAndrewBaldwin @ElRees1

@JonnyGucks @SpencerProf @Laura_Schmaura @Rob_Ker @NUTHMedEd @monca_ponca @DrAndrewBaldwin @ElRees1 Yep. Every time you spot yourself being annoyed, frustrated, happy, rushed, anxious, creative, bored or puzzled you have probably got something you could reflect about.

Chapter 2 of #BDBP has loads of prompts for reflection. If you're really struggling, try flipping your mindset and reflecting on a positive experience first! Any other #reflection tips? #CPD #F1s

Which CPD domain do you find most difficult to address? #BDBP #CPD #JuniorDoctors #F1

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

This weeks we're thinking about Development, and how to effectively set (and achieve) goals as medics #BDBP #CPD

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

The final topic is leadership in a clinical team, covering the additional responsibilities of an F2. It emphasises that leadership comes from within the team, and focuses on leading a team caring for a single patient, or on a team working in a single unit/ward. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

@100wordproject

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

The fifth topic is doctors' well-being. This includes resilience. Practical resilience skills are described and rehearsed, and opportunity given for F1 doctors to plan how to improve their own well-being. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

Non-technical skills are the fourth topic, exploring the components of effective teamwork are covered and practical tips. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

Handover and "formal" communication is the third topic. The importance of good note-keeping, discharge summaries and written referrals is highlighted. Time is spent discussing how to improve handover, with reference to the I-PASS approach. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

10% patients admitted acutely to NHS hospitals will have a patient safety incident. The Patient safety and quality improvement topic highlight some of the common sources of risk, and outlines approaches to both risk management and to quality improvement. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]

Graduation from medical school is not the end of your learning. Continuing Professional Development is a requirement for all practising doctors. The Learning, development and self-discipline topic includes reflection, planning CPD, self-awareness and deliberate practice. #BDBP

[betterdoctorsbetterpatients @better_doctors]
