SAS Frequently Asked Questions

Does the RCPCH have a recommended or required appraisal process for SAS doctors?

Appraisal is not an RCPCH process, but a Trust-based one. Appraisals are done against national standards and for SAS doctors they should be worked out with the supervising Consultants. RCPCH Regional Training Advisers can counsel SAS doctors on appraisal aspects.
