CPD: 0.000 points
Cost: No charge
Description: We all deserve to feel safe, respected and valued at work. The Workforce Race Equality Standard data demonstrates that the levels of bullying and harassment within the NHS are rising year on year, and this is resulting in low staff retention and a poor workplace culture. Recognising these issues is an important part of our training as healthcare professionals but also as leaders. Our personal experiences of diversity training have been that it is not specific to the dynamics of NHS workplaces. We recognise that challenging authority is difficult, but can be especially so when that authority can have very real impacts on training and opportunities. This course will offer a chance to reflect on your workplace culture. You will have the opportunity to share scenarios that you have witnessed, discuss these in small groups, and offer a structure for how to challenge injustice. There will then be the opportunity to act out different ways of approaching these scenarios with our talented actor in a safe and supportive environment if you wish. There is also the option to watch these scenarios be acted out, which will prompt further thinking about how you might do this in your workplace.

The following is extracted from the recent document, “Welcoming and valuing international medical graduates – A guide to induction for IMGs recruited to the NHS” “41.9% of the NHS medical workforce are from an ethnic minority background. There is substantial evidence showing that ethnic minority staff are likely to experience racism and discrimination and may have poorer experience and progression opportunities, and that ‘the extent to which an organisation values its minority staff is a good barometer of how well patients are likely to feel cared for’. (https://www.e-lfh.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Welcoming-and-Valuing-International-Medical-Graduates-A-guide-to-induction-for-IMGs-WEB.pdf) This day long course aims to address the specific issues that affect IMGs.

The SuppoRTT programme is offering a one-day workshop looking at returners response to the culture they might encounter, and how they intend to manage this. For returners, time spent reconnecting with their values and understanding why they do what they do professionally appears to be valuable in restoring self-confidence. If you have ever found yourself questioning why you do the job you do, and feeling disconnected from the person who made that career choice in the first place, this workshop is for you. Come and meet others who have felt similarly, and reconnect with, or re-design, your career aims and aspirations. This is a relaxed, informal one-day workshop. The emphasis will be on exploring how you feel about your career in a non-judgemental environment. This day is completely independent from any discussion with faculty from your School or Trust.

This low-stakes, interactive workshop is a place for you to warm up your speed of mind, to practice the foundational communication skills that doctors use in consultation (responding in the moment, connecting with others) without the pressure of jumping straight into high-stakes clinical situations. The workshop is also a chance to laugh and connect with other trainees who are returning to work, and to share perspectives and stories. Medical improv isn't about 'performing' - the activities are designed specifically for doctors who want to focus on the human side of their clinical communication so they feel a bit more clear and confident as they return to work. This workshop is ideal for you if you would like the chance to laugh and connect with fellow doctors who have been off, share experiences and perspectives, and boost your on-your-feet communication. (This workshop is a stand-alone event. It is a companion workshop to 'Medical improv: Rediscovering focus in a world of distraction.' However, we encourage you to attend both workshops.)

Description: Course Description: This course will help you understand how to recognise and process your emotions in healthy ways. In our everyday lives, we experience a range of emotions including difficult ones such as anxiety, frustration, apprehension, anger, fear, inadequacy, sadness, and overwhelm. Common reactions to difficult emotions can exacerbate stress and produce downward spirals. By being able to see these mechanisms clearly, you can prepare the ground for more nourishing alternatives. As emotions can be unsettling, it is important to learn how to find your centre and generate more relaxation in the body. You will discover how to mindfully meet emotions with compassion, to separate emotions from thinking and urges, and to become grounded in presence. We will also explore preventative approaches – ways to cultivate an ongoing sense of calm, including meditation principles and practice. This enables us to be less triggered or swept up in the automatic chain reactions stemming from challenging emotions. You will leave the course with a toolkit of techniques to apply when difficult emotions arise, so that you experience less reactivity and more equanimity. These shifts lead to a balanced perspective, help you to navigate life’s ups and downs, support your well-being, and enhance your effectiveness. The course provides a solid footing for return to training and contributes to wider and longer-term impacts, personally and professionally.
