Cliff Mann on UK Emergency Medicine recruitment. St.Emlyn’s

Clifford_MannThis week has seen some real progress on the crisis in emergency medicine recruitment within the UK. Health Education England appears to be taking recruitment really seriously with a document released this week stating how we will bring more trainees into the system. If you are interested in UK EM then this is a must read and you can read it here.

You should also read the blog at EMJ (only because I wrote it of course 😉 ) and following that listen to Cliff Mann the president of the College of Emergency Medicine on his podcast for EMJ/BMJ.

I completely agree with Cliff in his advice to anyone thinking about a career in EM – ‘there’s never been a better time to be in emergency medicine’.

Cliff must surely be a candidate for St.Emlyn’s clinician of the year and you really should follow him on Twitter.

  1. Interesting podcast
    Imaginative incentives, evening/night shift pattern recognition v pay, & sorting “exit blocking”/ Hosp tarif system adjustment. Sound ambitious and may actually really help. I wonder if timescale on these components may be elusive. If so Enhanced recruitment changes may not be sustained as an effective solution.

    Retention a universal problem no doubt
