Preceptorship – supporting registrants, employers and the sector to deliver better healthcare
The consultation on preceptorship sets out our ambition to construct a set of principles that can support registrants, employers and the wider sector in delivering better healthcare by ensuring healthcare professionals are better supported at key points in their careers.
Leadership
We have emphasised the role and importance of leadership at all levels of practice. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions.
Digital skills and new technologies
We have emphasised the need to be able to keep up to date with digital skills and new technologies. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions.
Active implementation of the standards
We have changed the wording of the standards to move registrants away from a passive understanding of the standards, and towards active implementation of them. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions.
Further centralising the service user
We have improved the central role of the service user, including a focus on valid consent and effective communication. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions.
