The free MSF tool that NES is providing for all doctors in Scotland is recommended. This is a fully automated on-line feedback tool which minimises the work that you need to do.
The GMC has also produced a free MSF tool, but there is no free supporting infrastructure to support its use. It is on http://www.gmc-uk.org/colleague_questionnaire.pdf_48212261.pdf
You should discuss the option of alternatives with your appraiser before using them. There are quite a number available, but very few have so far been validated or recommended for use by the GMC for Revalidation.
For each practice you invite you should include:
We think it is important to advise you that receiving feedback is best done with the help of a trained facilitator - in this case, your appraiser. Not all feedback may be positive and we need to be able to evaluate what it means without emotional overlay.
Unfortunately when there is negative feedback people often feel aggrieved and then act inappropriately, because the information has not been reflected on in context. Doctors often ignore the 9 very positive responses and focus on the one that is not.
But is there evidence that the feedback is true? How do other doctors score on this item? Is the adverse feedback a feature of not being well known to the person giving it?
Sessional GPs often score less well because they are less well known to a practice and may have been employed when the practice was experiencing difficulties such as low staffing levels. If you plan to try a 360° survey we strongly advise discussing this with your appraiser in advance.
