VTS social
Hello everyone,
As I mentioned at one of the VTS sessions a few weeks ago, I am planning the next two VTS socials:
1. 29/10/2008 - the plan was to go out for dinner or drinks after the AKT. I need to book soon. Could you please reply and let me know if you can make it by 18/10/2008. Does anyone have any preferences where to go and what type of food?
2. 02/12/2008 - Christmas Dinner: I was thinking of booking a table at TAS at London Bridge since I know they have got a big room downstairs. Could you also let me know by 18/10/2008 if you can make it and how many people you'd like to bring.
Looking forward to seeing all soon,
Anja

- overview of the nMRCGP exam, including AKT, CSA & WPBA

£3,000+ Pay Cut for New GP Registrar (ST3)
With all the press coverage on the 0% pay rise for GP and below inflation rise for most other health workers, I almost missed the worse news of all - PAY CUT for NEW GP Registrar!
From April 2007, new GP Registrar will have their supplement cut from 65% to 55%. This equates to a pay cut of at least £3,000 per annun!

New Website Address
Tony, who has done a great job looking after this blog for the VTS, is leaving us for pasture new. Thanks Tony for all your effort!
I have volunteered to try and fill his shoes. Please let me know if you would like to be involved with the upkeep of the blog or if there is anything you would like to see on the blog. For example, I have always wanted a more user friendly website address and have managed to obtain the following address for free*:
www.lewishamvts.co.nr
However, I don't like the ".co.nr" and think we can do better. Also with the introduction of the MMC, VTS is outdated now and I think the scheme is now called GP Specialist Training. Therefore, I would appreciate any suggestion for a new website address.

Next Term
Dear VTS group members,
we would like to use some of the time on 14 and again at the away day on 21 planning for next term.
Please think about your learning needs and how you could use the half day release (and the residential in March) to meet those needs. What topics you would like to cover, what would be your specific objectives and what methods would you like to use?
To help you I have attached a summary of the new MRCGP curriculum (still a draft but the final version wont be much different - the full curriculum is on the RCGP website) and a list of topics covered in previous terms.
There are many topics that are better covered by your trainer, in your hospital post or through personal learning so please suggest things that are better suited to group learning. Remember not to rely too much on "outside speakers" all the time but think about topics that could be presented by VTS members themselves. If there's something you are very interested in or know a lot about and would like to lead a session on - please suggest it.
You can be innovative and imaginative about learning methods. There are the obvious things like presentations, small group discussions, watching videos etc but there are other ways of learning that we could try and its good to have a variety of teaching methods.In the past we have made visits to various places including an exhibition at the British museum, gone to see a play about pain, invited a parent who runs a patient group and probably several others that I cant remember - but you get the idea I hope.

Last night out.......
Hi
Sorry haven't been around. Have been on nights and now on holidays. I've narrowed it down to 2 dates: 26 July or 3rd August. I need yes or no to both as then I have an idea of numbers and where to book. Just a simple yes or no is all you have to do.
See you soon

Night Out
Sorry everyone for the false alarm re night out 7th July. A number of people couldn't make it so I canned it but wasn't around to tell you. Bad little social secretary.
I'd like to get some consensus for a date and what people would prefer to do.
Free dates that I have so far are:
Thursday 20 July
Friday 21 July
Wednesday 26 July
Thursday 3 August
Thursday 10 August
Plus any of the Tuesday evenings in that period
Yes, a wide selection but I'm trying to optimise numbers.
Also, what would everyone like to do? I would be happy to have a BBQ at my place near London Bridge with or without partners. Or we can head out for another meal at one of London's fine establishments.
Please give me a bit of an idea and I'll organise, no problemo. I'm on nights for the Away Day so won't be seeing you so emails will have to do. My phone no is 0779 299 4702
Have fun
Love Lara

More Myers Briggs!
As promised here is a copy of my PowerPoint presentation for distribution
to those who attended. I also attach Pumpkin Soup - a light hearted look at
core functions and a very brief look at managing different types.
I thought the feedback was very fair. I do sometimes tend to go on a bit
and didn't get round to the interactive bit I had planned. I suspect the
Is were happy and that in general it was the Es who would have preferred more
interaction.
I will wait and see what response, if any comes from those who missed out.
We'll keep in touch on that one.
I had a mental block on the big five traits. They are:
* Neuroticism (vs Emotional Stability)
* Extraversion (vs Introversion)
* Openness to experience (vs Closedness to experiences)
* Agreeableness (vs Disagreeableness)
* Conscientiousness (vs Lack of conscientiousness)
For further reading 'Gifts Differing', Myers and Myers is as good as
anything I can recall.
Good luck with your away day.
