answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/03/2019 answer text <p>Undergraduate medical schools determine the content of their own curricula but are required to integrate the General Medical Council’s ‘Outcomes for Graduates’. These Outcomes include the knowledge, skills and behaviour that graduates must be able to demonstrate before gaining a licence to practise medicine.</p><p>The Outcomes were updated in 2018, with the integration of mental and social health care and caring for people with multiple morbidities, including mental health conditions, being key drivers for the update.</p><p>The new Outcomes specify that newly qualified doctors must explain and illustrate by professional experience the principles for the identification, safe management and referral of patients with mental health conditions. They must also take action in response to factors suggesting patient vulnerability, including assessing the needs of, and support required, for people with mental health conditions. Newly qualified doctors must be able to explain the relationship between psychological and medical conditions and how psychological factors impact on risk and treatment outcome. Finally the Outcomes take into account multi-professional working, noting that newly qualified doctors must work effectively within a multi-professional and multi-disciplinary team and across multiple care settings.</p><p>Medical schools have to design their curricula and assessments in order for their students to be able to meet all of the Outcomes by the time they complete their course. Schools have until summer 2020 to make sure their curriculum meets the new outcomes.</p> answering member constituency Wimbledon answering member printed Stephen Hammond question first answered 18/03/2019 11:30:33 answering member 1585 label Biography information for Stephen Hammond

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2018 answer text <p>This information is not held centrally.</p><p> </p><p>Specialist in-patient eating disorder services for people aged over 18 are commissioned by NHS England. Specialist community services for people aged over 18 with eating disorders are commissioned by clinical commissioning groups (CCGs). NHS England does not hold information about all of the specific services commissioned by individual CCGs.</p><p> </p><p>We know that early intervention is vital and can prevent problems continuing into adulthood, that is why in 2015 the Government introduced waiting time targets to improve access to eating disorder services for children and young people.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is also investing £150 million to expand eating disorder community-based care and as a result 70 dedicated new or extended community services are now either open or in development. This means at least 3,350 children and young people a year will receive swift, effective eating disorder treatment in the community.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 16/10/2018 14:18:59 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock previous answer version 78285 answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
