And therein lies the problem - or the fear at least. We are practicing
an art but seem to be judged by absolutes. Isn't it great?
I guess one approach would be to ask oneself - 'will I get suspended or
struck off for this?' if not then it is probably safe to ignore the GMC
advice and regard whatever procedures might ensueas an irritation
necessary to be able to practice ones art - a bit like the having to go
to the shop to by paint or canvas ;-)
