Medical Education @ SWFT

Happy SAS week 2025 to all our wonderful SAS colleagues ⭐️

We were honoured to have @DrNighatArif join our Med25 cohort this morning for an inspiring talk on what it truly means to be a doctor. Her insightful words reminded us that while accolades are appreciated, it’s the pursuit of meaningful change that should be our ultimate goal.

Today I have the honour to represent SWFT, GEH and the Midlands Guardian Network at a celebration event at the House of Lords, talking about speaking up and the power of listening and following up.

We're marking #BlackHistoryMonth in the #EdCentreLibrary @nhsswft Pop into the library to see our display, browse the books and read our annual BHM newsletter, which you can also find here: gehswft.wordpress.ptfs-europe.co.uk/wp-content/upl… @GEHNHSnews @GEH_SWFT_HWB

Echoing our CEO, at @nhsswft we are absolutely appalled at the violence currently being seen across the country. Diversity is our strength and we are proud of all our colleagues and students. Please read the full statement from the trust below.

“We are extremely appalled to see violent protests taking place across the country. Our organisation is incredibly proud of our diverse workforce and proactively celebrates the variety of ethnicities and heritage within our Trust" Full statement: swft.nhs.uk/about-us/news/…

Starting their medical degree at the start of a worldwide pandemic, they’ve seen the landscape of medicine change dramatically in just four years, and their resilience and hard work has been nothing short of inspirational ⭐️ you will be missed at Warwick Hospital!

Our assistantship students are coming to the end of their time with us at @nhsswft as today we marked the final few days with our @UoB_medic 2020 cohort! Incoming resident doctors in August 🩺🩻🥼

We are so proud of The @UniOfBuckingham's Phase II medical student, Prince Tandukar, for saving a life of a 66-year-old Chelsea fan Paul Archer by performing a CPR after Paul collapsed from a cardiac arrest at Stamford Bridge in November 2023. @stjohnambulance @CFCFoundation
