Professionalism
Each year you are required to complete at least one activity for each of the four CAPE domains, and record this as part of your CPD.
A reflection on how you could apply this learning to your practice should be included with your CPD claim as outlined in the CPD program guide.
Professionalism encompasses learning that contributes to high-quality care and involves undertaking exercises and activities that enhance the entire practice, aiding self-reflection, and self-awareness. Participating in CPD is an activity that supports professionalism.
Examples:
- Adhering to ethical principles – healthcare professionals must uphold the highest ethical standards and act with integrity, honesty, and transparency to maintain the trust of their patience and their families.
- Effective communication – fostering strong relationships with patients and their families through clear, respectful, and open communication.
- Empathy and compassion – providing care with empathy and compassion towards patients and their families during difficult times.
