This event is made possible by sponsorship from organisations including pharmaceutical companies, med tech companies and service providers none of which have influenced the event content or the choice of speakers. Sessions delivered with input from these organisations will be marked as such on the programme once released and a list of all sponsors and exhibitors will be published shortly.
General Medical Council
The GMC is the independent regulator of doctors in the UK. They work with doctors, their employers, their educators, and others to:
• Set the standards of patient care and professional behaviours doctors need to meet.
• Make sure doctors get the education and training they need to deliver good, safe patient care.
• Check who is eligible to work as a doctor in the UK and check they continue to meet the professional standards we set throughout their careers.
• Give guidance and advice to help doctors understand what’s expected of them.
• Investigate where there are concerns that patient safety, or the public’s confidence in doctors, may be at risk, and take action if needed.
