London’s Enhancing Generalist Skills programme

Following the findings of the 'Future Doctor Report,' which saw that there is a need for a greater proportion of doctors and all other healthcare professionals to have generalist skills, the Enhancing Generalist Skills Programme was formed, which aims to broaden the knowledge and expertise of health care professionals through enhancing current training programmes.

The London enhance Programme Team is running a programme of 4 free in-person events and workshops to promote and encourage generalist skills, supporting London medical trainees from all specialities, nurses, pharmacists, allied healthcare professionals and the wider workforce to: 

  • develop generalist skills 

  • share best practice 

  • improve patient care, reduce health inequalities and enhance the patient journey.  

Each session will focus on a separate element of the curriculum: 

  1. Thinking Together 1 - Person-centred approaches to healthcare 

  2. Thinking Together 2 - Communicating between teams and integrating care 

  3. The Human Dimension of Technology  

  4. Flourishing in healthcare 

As part of the programme you will also be encouraged to undertake a local quality improvement project, based upon topics covered in the programme.

Please circulate the attached flyer to those who might be interested. 

Linked to this programme, the London enhance celebration event will be taking place on Tuesday 14th March from 09:00 - 16:00, which will feature interactive workshops and offer reflections of the enhance programme.
