UK GDPR Awareness
At My Patient Advice, our commitment to better healthcare goes beyond this website. We believe that well-informed, well-supported clinicians are the foundation of good patient outcomes — which is why we sponsor and co-invest in healthcare education and training platforms across the UK.
Free training for GP practices and primary care teams
eGP Hub is a modern online learning platform built by GPs, for GP practice staff. Covering mandatory and statutory training, the Care Certificate, CPD, and role-specific courses for the whole team — from clinicians to admin — it’s designed to remove cost as a barrier to safe, compliant and well-trained practices. My Patient Advice funded the build of the platform, so that practices can access it completely free, with no subscriptions, no per-user fees, and no time limits.
Exam and assessment support for UK GP trainees
GP Pathway is a complete training resource for doctors working towards qualification as GPs in the UK. Aligned to the RCGP curriculum, it supports every stage of the journey — MSRA, AKT, SCA, and WPBA — with question banks, mock exams, revision notes, and consultation practice. Our sponsorship helps the next generation of GPs prepare with confidence.
Resuscitation, emergency, and acute care training
React Pathways delivers simulation-based emergency and acute care training, governed by UK clinicians and delivered to healthcare teams around the world. From high-fidelity simulation and clinical skills to e-learning and faculty development, its programmes help frontline teams respond when it matters most. We’re proud to support their work in raising the standard of emergency care globally.
