SuppoRTT Champions

SuppoRTT (Supported Return To Training) is a national programme designed to improve the experience for all resident doctors, dentists and public health practitioners (PGDiT) who are returning to training. Many resident doctors take time out of training for a number of reasons which can often vary in duration. This can include; parental leave, OOPs, career breaks, carer's leave and sickness.

NHS England understands that regardless of the reason, returning back into training can be a challenging and stressful time. However, you are not on your own; NHS England, your School and your host organisation are here to support and guide you through this process.

Please see the NHS England - North West SuppoRTT pages for more information.

SuppoRTT Champion for Intensive Care Medicine
