Notice Information

Notice Title

Mental Capacity and Learning Disabilities Training

Notice Description

We've been working to improve our ability to identify whether a doctor has considered appropriate support for patients to make decisions, and any concerns around a patient's mental capacity. To support this work and foster an organisational awareness of mental capacity and issues that arise for patients with learning disabilities, we aim to provide: -Awareness sessions to approximately 500 staff in key roles across the GMC and develop an online training resource for ongoing use. As staff join the business or change roles they, too may require training. - A learning resource for GMC Associates. GMC Associates are an appointed group made up of medical (both qualified and trainees) and non-medical (lay) experts who partake in a number of activities across the organisation. GMC Associates are classed as independent contractors to the GMC and are not classed as employees. It is expected that the external training provider will meet with key GMC groups to understand the specific GMC context, including a high-level view of policies and processes.
