It is important to include evidence of learning, reflection and outcomes ie improvement in practice or patient care. Please do not include copies of journals or papers you may have read – it is more relevant to demonstrate what you have learned from your reading/attendance at a course and how you have changed your practice as a result of that learning.
The following is a guide of the evidence that should be included in your appraisal paperwork.
Extent and nature of CPD – including a minimum of 50 credits per year (with one credit being broadly equivalent to one hour of learning).
These are especially useful if they have been discussed in the practice and have identified a learning need or led to a change of practice
Sometimes known as 'puns' and 'dens' or sticky moments. Times when you know that having a wider knowledge or a particular skill would have enabled you to deal more effectively with the situation.
Personal involvement in the process and 'ownership' of the outcome makes this a useful discussion point. It is less useful if it has been done by someone else and you do not fully understand the results
New buildings or extensions. New equipment such as telephone systems and computer systems. Retirement of and recruitment of new partners. Changes of dynamics in the team.

Evidence of keeping up to date in these fields is essential.
Particularly of relevance is how your other role links in with or affects your role as a GP
