The Policy Team have continued their work on equality and diversity this week with a meeting of the College’s short life working group to discuss future plans for a campaign on this very important matter during 2021 and beyond. They have also been doing some work on a policy briefing document on burnout and stress of clinicians and on the upcoming staffing challenges for dealing with the COVID-19 backlog.
Discussions were also held this week with HEE and the Independent Healthcare Providers Network on how surgical trainees may continue their training in private hospital settings. As always if you would like more detail or to discuss the College’s policy work please contact the team on birmingham@rcsed.ac.uk.
