The Clinical Supervisor's Report
The Clinical Supervisors Report (CSR) forms part of the evidence
which is gathered through WPBA. The ePortfolio has a section for
the clinical supervisor to write a short structured report on the
GPStR at the end of each hospital post. This covers:
- The knowledge base relevant to the post
- Practical skills relevant to the post
- The professional competences
What to do
The electronic form provides reminders of
the definitions of the competences to make writing the report
easier. It may also be helpful to refer to the relevant curriculum
statement(s) on the RCGP website in reporting on the knowledge and
skills relevant to the post.
The report should identify any significant
developmental needs identified during a placement, and also point
up any areas where the GPStR has shown particular strengths. The
report should describe the progress of the GPStR in terms of the
evidence of competence rather than pass or fail. This information
will feed into the relevant six monthly reviews and at that point a
decision will be taken as to whether additional training is
needed.
