Abstract

Objectives: To describe and provide experiential reflections on a model of continuing professional development in psychiatry for development and maintenance of specialised skills. Conclusions: For clinical psychiatrists working in smaller population centres, clinical observer visits with peers may be a useful method to develop, improve and calibrate knowledge and skills. Such potential benefits may be even more marked for specialised fields of psychiatry, such as neuropsychiatry.
