Rick Jones has forwarded your message - there are no firm 
recommendations NHS-wide (yet!), but I led a team that devised an 
IM&T curriculum specification for primary care a couple of years ago, 
and this specification is being extensively used for incorporating 
medical informatics into the medical curriculum, and may also be used 
in nursing education.  I can forward you an electronic copy of the 
spec. if that would help?

Best wishes

Sheila
