Leicestershire boasts a thriving city and the surrounding countryside is considered a bonus to being part of the Leicester based programmes.
The variety of opportunity and environment for training ensures Leicester continues to attract doctors with diverse interests and experience. We have a history of innovation in our training, having developed and evaluated a curriculum rather than a rigid timetable.
We use simulation and quality improvement activities in training as a matter of course. In addition, there is high quality educational and pastoral support targeted towards individual registrars' learning needs.
Throughout Leicestershire programmes we incorporate a diverse range of practices - from single handed doctors to large multiple trainer practices.
The practices range from older established practices (and trainers) to the newer practices, offering a variety of experiences in inner city, suburbs, market towns and rural practices.
Leicester is very ethically and culturally diverse and registrars on the programme will experience working in at least two different practices to hep experience a wide range of educational and working opportunities.
