Plaudits to the NAP8 team @RCoA_CRI for including SAS and using the right terminology in the categories for all workforce colleagues. It needs to be celebrated when folks get this right!! @RCoANews

We are grateful to have had the opportunity to contribute to this important report and are pleased it recognises the issues all too common to our members - workloads are increasing and the need to balance service delivery with training opportunities is a difficult balance to get right. We are ready to be involved in Phase Two of the project when it launches in January and to make sure the needs of our members are represented throughout the process.

“The findings in the GMC’s annual workforce report will unfortunately come as no surprise to our members. The report highlights a growing crisis with many doctors (..) unable to access speciality training and more and more doctors leaving the health service. With growing gaps in the medical workforce and increasing issues with recruitment and retention, this situation is untenable” Our response 👉 buff.ly/jhcO2jp
