Why become a GP Supervisor?

Being a GP supervisor can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. By sharing your extensive experience and knowledge you are helping to shape the next generation of GP’s to the benefit of your community.

There are many additional benefits to becoming involved with GP supervision:-

• GP supervision adds another dimension to your professional career. It creates an opportunity for you to try new things as an addition to your treatment and management of patients;
• In addition to providing an added interest to your life as a General Practitioner professional, GP supervision can also be a powerful personal professional development learning opportunity. As a GP supervisor you are able to access to a range of educational activities and resources in addition to creating new personal and professional contacts.
• Registrars often bring new ideas and enthusiasm into a practice. Many supervisors are surprised that learning is often a two-way process with registrar’s education based on the latest developments and clinical research.
• Patients can benefit from increased appointment availability and registrars may elect to stay on working at a practice after they have completed training. 

The most successful GP supervisors are passionate about their profession and the opportunity to share their expertise to teach and grow the future GP profession.  Practices with engaged and committed supervisors are highly sought after by registrars and often have higher rates of retention.
GP Synergy provides extensive support and on-going support for GP Supervisors with extensive  teaching resources including suggested teaching templates and a comprehensive Supervisor Development program to up skill new Supervisors and provide ongoing professional development and networking opportunities.
