Planning for the next generation of doctors ”is critical”
NHS organisations have a central role to play within medical training in the UK, one industry body has noted.
According to NHS Employers - which represents trusts in England on workplace issues and aims to ensure those looking for public sector jobs that the NHS is somewhere worth working - planning the areas doctors will be trained in is vital to ensure there is no shortage or over-supply in the future.
These comments come in response to a Centre for Workforce Intelligence (CfWI) report, which published final recommendations on medical training numbers for 2011.
Bill McMillan, head of medical pay and workforce at the organisation, said the document will help NHS organisations inform their decisions on where the future doctors are needed.
He added: "We support the CfWI's programme of work to increase understanding of the shape of the future medical workforce and the numbers going into training."
