Invited Review Mechanism (IRM): a message from Stephen Dover 

The Invited Review Mechanism (IRM) is run through the Royal College of Surgeons of England. I am the BAOMS representative on this body. The purpose of the IRM is to ensure that patients receive good quality care, by providing expert opinion and objective advice. This can take the form of a review of clinical records, a review of an individual’s practice or a wider service review, often looking at multi-disciplinary team working.

Please see this link: Learning from Invited Reviews from the RCS Eng 

There is an increasing need for experienced clinicians to act as reviewers and to support the work of the IRM. If you are interested in taking on this role please contact the BAOMS Office where information and application forms can be made available to you. I would also be happy to provide you with further information
