General Practice Trainees
Little Harwood Health Centre is an approved practice for General Practitioner training. This means we have other Doctors working with us to gain experience in General Practice. These are fully qualified doctors and have at least one year's hospital experience.
From time to time the trainee or partners will need, as part of their training within general practice, to video their consultation with you, the patient. This forms an important part of medical training, but will not be carried out without your written consent. It will not affect your consultation or treatment in any way. No intimate examination will be recorded.
We hope that you will consent to this being carried out. The recording will be kept as confidential as your medical records and will only be used for educational purposes and then erased. It is used to assess the doctor's skill in the consultation, to teach the doctor how to improve and for research - all of which helps you to get better care.
Little Harwood Health Centre is recognised for their long history of training GPs, Junior Doctors and Medical Students and we hope that you, the patients will benefit from their presence in the practice.
