Health professionals at all levels are now expected to approach their continuing professional development in a more systematic way. This book shows what individuals and workplace teams can do to identify their own learning needs and draw up and prioritise their own action plans. It bridges the gap between theory and practice and between 'thinking and doing'. Presented in a simple and practical style it shows how to integrate quality improvements into everyday work. It is an essential book for the primary care team and will help underpin professional development plans and revalidation which will make a positive contribution to their organisation's business plans. It will make you think it will make you question what you do and inevitably it will make your work improve.' David Haslam in his Foreword. 'This book is valuable across the range of health professionals. I commend it to you.' Alison Norman in her Foreword.
