New method of supervision for international medical graduates
The Medical Council of New Zealand (Council) is implementing the approved practice setting (APS) model for supervision of international medical graduates (IMGs). Accreditation as an APS, demonstrates that a service has satisfied Council that appropriate support and supervision is provided to IMGs. Once a service is recognised, it will no longer be necessary for individual supervision plans to be submitted to Council for approval, resulting in more efficient registration processes for IMGs.
Services will continue to have the option of providing individual proposals for supervision for each IMG employed.
Accreditation of an APS will usually take place through a paper audit using self assessment, with assessment taking place at intervals of three years.
