Mental health placements for health and social care students
Preparedness for practice and workplace support of newly qualified allied health professionals
INTRODUCTION: Allied health professionals (AHPs) constitute a significant part of the global healthcare workforce. It is important that AHPs are well prepared for practice to provide quality care for patients, for their personal wellbeing, and for workforce retention. In comparison to doctors, there has been strikingly limited research on AHPs preparedness for practice. The aim of this study was (1) to understand how well newly qualified AHPs wer…
Uncovering the economic costs of rotation in postgraduate clinical training
INTRODUCTION: Health professions education (HPE) frequently employs rotational models in which learners move between placements at distinct healthcare facilities. Rotational training is presumed to have educational benefits but it incurs costs and there is debate within undergraduate and postgraduate contexts concerning the optimal extent of rotation. Rotational training's costs are largely hidden and have not been rigorously studied. We aimed to…
Tolerance of ambiguity and psychological wellbeing in newly qualified doctors
Realist analysis of qualitative data in health professions education research
A roadmap to realist interviews in health professions education research
Health workforce under pressure—How do we sustain our future
McCormack, Noble and Mattick explore the seemingly unsustainable workload placed on the health workforce. Interrelations between multiple lenses of sustainability are discussed and a possible pathway towards sustainability is provided
Repairing disrupted care processes as sources of stability, learning and change in a Finnish hospital
The impact of shared social spaces on the wellness and learning of junior doctors
From health advocacy to collective action
Using the UN Sustainable Development Goals as inspiration, Noble and Mattick explore the parallels between learning to prescribe and becoming a health advocate
Constraints and affordances for UK doctors‐in‐training to exercise agency
Graduates' preparedness for the changing doctor‐patient relationship
Workplace support for newly qualified doctors and secondary school teachers
Doctors and teachers in their first year of practice face steep learning curves and increased stress, which can induce poor mental health, burnout and attrition. Informal workplace support from colleagues can help smooth transitions and aid professional development. A three‐phase comparative research design was used to explore who provides informal workplace support to early‐career professionals, types of support and influencing factors. Phase 1 …
Promoting inclusivity in health professions education publishing
A taskforce established by Medical Education asks readers to engage in discussion about how the journal and field can do better to ensure that health professional education publishing is inclusive of diverse knowledge and perspectives
I’d have to fight for my life there’
Students from lower socio-economic backgrounds who were educated in state funded schools are underrepresented in medicine in the UK. Widening access to medical students from these backgrounds has become a key political and research priority. It is known that medical schools vary in the number of applicants attracted and accepted from non-traditional backgrounds but the reasons for this are poorly understood. This study aims to explore what applic…
Mindfulness, complex interventions and conceptual clarity
How can we further develop mindfulness training in health professions education? Hancock and Mattick argue the answer lies in the complex interventions framework
Judging competence, providing feedback and changing organisations
Reflecting on Pack et al.'s work, Mattick and Gallen argue training experiences and outcomes offer perspective on organisational culture and can inform program development as much as trainee development
The case for faculty development
When I first came here, I thought medicine was black and white
