Key Questions What – develop or do differently? Be specific Item 12 Key Questions What – develop or do differently? Be specific Why – how did you identify? and relevance? How – will you learn this? Knowledge/skills/attitude? When - Timescale? How - will you know you have achieved objective? How – will you demonstrate this? 7

Under Developed Example Development need: Update on eating disorders How will I address the need? Reading Timescale: In the next year Outcome: I will feel more confident about this 8

Better Example Development need: The management of patients with eating disorders, specifically anorexia nervosa. I realised after a difficult clinical situation when a patient was under my care who was anorexic, that I was not confident in managing these patients. 9

How will I address the need? I have arranged to discuss this case with a colleague who specialises in this condition – in the next two weeks. Before this I will carry out an internet search for resources - review articles, online learning. Ask my colleague for suggestions about any other suitable resources. 10

Time scale Internet Search and discuss with colleague - within the next two months. Review any changes to management over the next year. 11

Outcome I will write up this case as a clinical case review. I will present this at our clinical meeting. I will discuss with our specialist trainees. 12

PDPs – remember!! Specific Measurable Achievable Relevant/Realistic Time specific 13

As an appraisee … Understands the principles of the scheme Uses the interview to gain insight & to address professional needs Willing to spend time preparing Able to listen Assertive: confident enough to seek and handle challenges from appraiser & to express their needs Able to reflect on & analyse past performance & events 17

As an observer … Focus on appraisal skills & techniques Take notes with examples to support views/opinion Structure feedback logically Be supportive to appraiser but don’t fudge issues – address areas which could have been handled differently, or better, with suggestions! 18
