Improving patient care through CPD: revised guidance from the Royal College of Psychiatrists
Keyword(s):
SummaryContinued learning is essential to doctors' safe and effective practice throughout their careers. To improve the care they provide, they need not only to acquire new knowledge and skills but also to consider how their current practice compares and what they need to change. Such reflection is not usually automatic; time, and often help from peers, is needed to make it effective; formalised, this is continuing professional development (CPD). Revised guidance from the Royal College of Psychiatrists emphasises the importance of linking learning to improved practice through reflection and promotes the CPD peer group's role in supporting psychiatrists to do this.
