The General Medical Council (GMC) has published the summary findings of its 2021 national training survey. It found that the pandemic increased burnout among doctors.

The Royal College of Physicians (RCP) has joined the BMA and other medical bodies in signing a letter to the Chancellor, urging him to use the budget to provide a long-term solution to the pension taxation crisis.

The Royal College of Physicians (RCP)’s Falls and Fragility Fracture Audit Programme (FFFAP) has today published its annual National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD) report.

90% of those responding to a poll conducted by the RCP witnessed colleagues going above and beyond their jobs last winter.

Welsh hospitals are understaffed and overstretched. Over two-thirds of trainees report regular and frequent rota gaps, almost one-third of advertised consultant posts go unfilled, and absence due to sickness is rising.

The RCP is calling for more research to be conducted in NHS trusts to support high quality patient care, with ‘protected time’ for doctors, nurses and other clinicians to undertake research projects. 

More than 50,000 life-altering fractures could be avoided if preventative services were made available more widely, a new report from the RCP finds.

Twelve medical organisations have called on the Welsh government and NHS Wales to support trainee doctors to become future medical leaders. ​

Dr Nigel Hewett, medical director of health charity Pathway, writes for the RCP on a new duty of care that is a step in the right direction towards making a difference for this vulnerable group.

Following the publication of 'Advancing medical professionalism', Point of Care Foundation chief executive Jocelyn Cornwell discusses how it aligns with her organisation's goals and findings.
