Family meetings in palliative care: Multidisciplinary clinical practice guidelines
Background: Support for family carers is a core function of palliative care. Family meetings are commonly recommended as a useful way for health care professionals to convey information, discuss goals of care and plan care strategies with patients and family carers. Yet it seems there is insufficient research to demonstrate the utlility of family meetings or the best way to conduct them. This study sought to develop multidisciplinary clinical practice guidelines for conducting family meetings in the specialist palliative care setting based on available evidence and consensus based expert opinion.

Consultant medical trainers, modernising medical careers (MMC) and the European time directive (EWTD): tensions and challenges in a changing medical education context

Background:

We analysed the learning and professional development narratives of Hospital

Methods:

discussed in the context of Consultant Trainers' personal biographies, organisational culture and

medical education practices. We conducted life story interviews with 20 Hospital Consultants in

six NHS Trusts in Wales in 2005.Qualitative study. Learning and continuing professional development (CPD), were

Results:

have changed the nature of medical education. Loss of continuity of care, reduced clinical exposure

of medical trainees and loss of the popular apprenticeship model were seen as detrimental for the

quality of medical training and patient care. Consultant Trainers' perceptions of medical education

were embedded in a traditional medical education culture, which expected long hours' availability,

personal sacrifices and learning without formal educational support and supervision. Over-reliance

on apprenticeship in combination with lack of organisational support for Consultant Trainers' new

responsibilities, resulting from the introduction of MMC, and lack of interest in pursuing training in

teaching, supervision and assessment represent potentially significant barriers to progress.Consultant Trainers felt that new working patterns resulting from the EWTD and MMC

Conclusion:

MMC within the context of EWTD. Postgraduate Deaneries, NHS Trusts and the new body; NHS:

Medical Education England should deal with the deficiencies of MMC and challenges of ETWD and

aspire to excellence. Further research is needed to investigate the views and educational practices

of Consultant Medical Trainers and medical trainees.This study identifies issues with significant implications for the implementation of

Consultants training junior staff ('Consultant Trainers') in order to identify impediments to

successful postgraduate medical training in the UK, in the context of Modernising Medical Careers

(MMC) and the European Working Time Directive (EWTD).
