The Department of Education needs to rethink its current regulations around apprenticeships, says Mencap. The UK’s main learning disability charity found that current regulation presents unnecessary barriers for people with a learning disability or learning difficulty to enter and complete apprenticeships. In 2019/20, only 12 percent of all apprentices identified as having a learning disability, learning difficulty or a health problem. In this NHS Project Futures monthly podcast Mike Gray, Capability & Resourcing Manager at HEE, and Mark Capper, Mencap’s Head of Development discuss why neurodiverse people need better access to apprenticeships, share some of the barriers preventing this underrepresented labour market accessing apprenticeships, share practical steps employers can do to improve access, and identify some of the benefits to be gained when employing this underrepresented group

The COVID-19 pandemic has seen the NHS embrace the use of tele-medicine as a way to continue to provide high-quality patient care whilst maintaining social distancing. As we enter the recovery phase it is likely to continue to be used as the key modality for conducting outpatient work. In addition to the benefits of infection prevention, telemedicine has a host of other advantages for patients and the health service but does bring challenges to the clinician and, in particular, to supervision and the trainee-trainer relationship. In this Pandemic Podcast, we are in conversation with clinicians and trainers Jo Szram and Indranil Chakravorty discussing the key issues and trainee Vicky Twigg, reflecting on the benefits of telemedicine, how to conduct teleclinics and common pitfalls and best practice in using teleclinics as a training modality.

Medics often face uncertainty regarding their career journey; whether it be deciding on speciality, taking time out of training, questioning career decisions, or navigating exams and ARCPs.

Healthcare workers have been faced with unusually difficult career-related decisions during the Covid-19 outbreak. Many have asked themselves: "Do I run towards the frontline or work from the sidelines?" What do these choices reveal about our unique values, motivational drivers and ethical stance? How might these highly-personal choices shape our career once the pandemic is over? In this episode PSU coach Kathleen Sullivan is in conversation with Gabriel Weston, Shak Rahman and Sarah Siddiqui. These three surgeons are at different stages in their career and have made very different and difficult choices during the pandemic. However, what they have in common is a curiosity about the legacy that the Covid-19 crisis may have on our professional identities over the course of our careers. In this extended episode they consider some of the important decisions they have made and delve deep into some of the questions emerging from a potentially career-altering pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in new ways of working for everyone in healthcare, with some healthcare professionals being redeployed to another speciality completely. Redeployment can pose a host of practical difficulties and concerns to those being redeployed, such as; will I be out of my depth? Am I going to be putting myself and my family at risk? How will my training and career be affected? In this episode we are in conversation with two surgical trainees and a PSU coach, to discuss their experience of being redeployed, the highs and lows, and the approaches one may take in addressing the concerns that arise.

The pandemic has altered work patterns,sothat in general practice most consultations are being done by telephone or video. Clinicians are sometimes working from home and trainees and supervisors may not always be in the same physical environment. The combination of different ways of consulting and this geographical separation can lead to challenge in terms of supervision. In this episode, we are in conversation with a GP trainee, a GP trainer and a GP educator about their experiences; and consider ways of overcoming the challenges they have faced.

In a high-alert situation such as the Covid-19 pandemic, it can be very easy to become more function driven and task focused when everything is in crisis mode. There is the potential for 'heroic' overworking and burnout, or struggling to find the capacity to address other areas of our lives. In these times, how can we support healthcare professionals to create more balance in their every day? In this episode we are in conversation with coaches Dr Magdalena Bak-Maier and Kathleen Sullivan. Our discussion draws on neuroscience and coaching as we explore some practical approaches to finding balance amidst the ongoing crisis.
