Spring School Day 1 - AM Workshop - Helping Trainees with Challenges-Starting the conversation – the hardest part? (GP12MAY21a)

AvailabilityCourse has taken place
SubjectGP Intending Trainers
Description Helping trainees with challenges sounds like something we should be really good and we probably are, yet broaching the subject can be daunting** Out of our comfort zone **When we think about broaching the subject we are ‘troubled’ because we sense we are about to step into a potentially fraught area or conversation. We may have to discuss a performance issue such as timekeeping, or record keeping; it may be a communication issue or a behaviour that is proving unhelpful.** There is uncertainty because we do not know how the trainee will react, and we may feel we are stepping into a culturally sensitive area and we might ‘get it wrong’ ** All of this combines to push us out of our ‘comfort zone’ and as our uncertainty increases our confidence diminishes. Yet we are experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated trainers – what is happening?
