SuppoRTT Champion
SuppoRTT (Supported Return To Training) is a national programme designed to improve the experience for all postgraduate doctors, dentists and public health practitioners (PGDiT) who are returning to training. Many PGDiT 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 the School of Intensive Care Medicine
