Principles of feedback in the clinical setting • Make it normal a everyday thing • Ensure that learners are clear about the criteria against which their performance will be judged. • Feedback at the time of an event or shortly afterwards. • Feedback should be limited to one or two items only • Make sure it is a two-way conversation • Check the learner understands the feedback @NHS_HealthEdEng
