An Ounce of Prevention - Upstream Regulation

This webinar will explore how the UK’s General Medical Council (GMC) has been focusing on “upstream regulation,” early interventions that aim to prevent harm, as opposed to acting “downstream,” once harm has already occurred. GMC colleagues will explain some of the theory that informs their approach before sharing practical examples of what they are doing. This includes identifying risks by different cohorts of doctors and providing supportive teaching interventions to help them deliver the standards set in Good medical practice.
