The standard of medical training is the responsibility of the General Medical Council, which is an independent statutory body.<\/p>
<\/p>
This includes setting the standards of education at undergraduate level and approving medical school curricula, which emphasise the skills and approaches that medical students and newly qualified doctors must develop in order to deal effectively with whatever is presented to them and ensure accurate and timely diagnoses and treatment plans for their patients.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4095", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Barclay"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Cambridgeshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Barclay"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-10T17:17:37.213Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that medical students are acquiring the basic clinical skills to make a diagnosis of ME/CFS.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/252", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr David Drew"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stroud"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr David Drew"} ], "uin" : "121190"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/816937", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/816937/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Department is committed to the development of social prescribing due to both its ability to improve the health and wellbeing of individuals and its potential to take pressure off general practice and other services.<\/p>
<\/p>
NHS England is encouraging general practitioners (GPs) to support social prescribing as one of the ten high impact actions to release capacity set out in the GP Forward View. NHS England is working with federations of GPs to increase support for social prescribing. Regional social prescribing networks spread good practice and innovation in social prescribing across England, providing support for clinical commissioning group commissioners and practitioners.<\/p>
<\/p>
There have been no recent discussions between the Secretary of State and NHS Clinical Commissioners on social prescribing. NHS England\u2019s Clinical Lead for Social Prescribing met Julie Wood, CEO of NHS Clinical Commissioners in October 2017 to discuss how to raise the profile of social prescribing amongst commissioners.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4067", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Brine"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Winchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Steve Brine"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-15T11:52:05.763Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Social Prescribing"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what plans he has to encourage the use of social prescribing by GPs; and what recent discussions has he had with NHS Clinical Commissioners on social prescribing.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/252", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr David Drew"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stroud"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr David Drew"} ], "uin" : "121364"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/809872", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/809872/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The postgraduate training curriculum of doctors is set by the relevant Royal College and has to meet the standards set by the General Medical Council (GMC). It emphasises the skills and attributes that a doctor must develop in order to ensure accurate and timely diagnoses and to develop a treatment plan to meet patients\u2019 needs.<\/p>
<\/p>
The GMC published revised standards for postgraduate training curricula in May 2017. These provide an integrated standards framework for the development, approval and provision of postgraduate medical education and training in the United Kingdom.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4067", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Brine"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Winchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Steve Brine"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-12-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-12-22T11:39:17.96Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-12-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps he has taken to ensure that the training of GPs includes the latest evidence on how to diagnose and treat ME.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/252", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr David Drew"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stroud"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr David Drew"} ], "uin" : "120492"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/809873", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/809873/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Department, through the National Institute for Health Research, has recently commissioned one project on the treatment of symptoms of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME). Professor Esther Crawley, of the University of Bristol, was awarded funding for research entitled, \u2018Investigating the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of using FITNET to treat paediatric CFS/ME in the UK\u2019. This project began in May 2016. Full details of the research can be found at:<\/p>
