Overview
The Practice Review category includes Clinical (Practice) Audit, Quality Improvement and Practice Evaluation projects
- Audit: Reviewing care against criteria to improve standards
- Quality Improvement: Setting goals and testing interventions for better outcomes
- Practice Evaluation: A systematic peer or patient review of professional performance
Recording your Practice Review project in your ePortfolio for Professional Competence attracts 10 CPD credits.
To meet this requirement, you must complete one project about an aspect of your own practice every year and record it in the relevant form in your CPDValet for Professional Competence. This project must be conducted and completed between 1 May and 30 April, in line with the Professional Competence year.
This is a requirement for ALL doctors enrolled on a Professional Competence Scheme, not just those working in hospitals.
