Registration for physician associates (PAs) and anaesthesia associates (AAs) is open.
To all PAs and AAs – we’re looking forward to welcoming you. If you’re on a voluntary register, you don’t need to apply until we invite you in January, but you can start preparing your documents. If you’re not on a voluntary register, we encourage you to apply as soon as you’re able.
Regulation will have a positive impact and help to strengthen patient safety.
You can find more information about how we’ll register PAs and AAs on our website - gmc-uk.org/about/what-we-do-…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is misleading. There is no evidence that “Regulation will have a positive impact and help to strengthening patient safety.”

I’ve long been concerned by the number of children who die in England who were known to social services.
Children once known to social care whose cases were closed were 6x more likely than others to die due to abuse, neglect or deliberate injuries.

Great article from @TheKingsFund - definitely worth adding to your weekend reading list.

As leaders, we want to build learning systems & learning organisations. That means we need to role model being continuous learners. It can be hard to make space for personal learning when our roles are so full on. Here are five ways to keep learning, even when we feel depleted:
1) Challenge our beliefs about our capacity to learn;
2) Start with topics that solve urgent problems;
3) Don’t limit ourselves to learning via formal programmes;
4) Make an emotional connection to learning - in line with what matters to us rather than the expectations of others;
5) Work with our brains, not against them - evidence-based approaches that increase retention.

When groups meet to brainstorm, good ideas are lost. People bite their tongues due to conformity pressure, noise, and ego threat.
A better approach is brainwriting: generate ideas separately, then meet to assess and refine.
Group wisdom begins with individual creativity.
