Consultants, resident doctors, nurses, pharmacists, therapists and other healthcare professionals work together in the fast-paced environment, helping to create what the trust described as a rich learning experience for doctors in training. Dr Tom Payne, consultant in acute medicine, said: “Every day is an opportunity to learn and improve, whether that’s me, the most senior consultant, or the newest person to the team.” The trust said the survey results recognised the support given to doctors in training, enabling them to develop their skills while knowing help is always available. It also praised the contribution of the wider multidisciplinary team in creating an outstanding environment for both learning and patient care. NHS Somerset Foundation Trust said providing a positive training experience helps build the workforce of the future, with hopes that many trainees will choose to return and build their careers in Somerset. The trust also congratulated colleagues in Yeovil’s acute medicine service, where training survey scores improved sharply over the past year.
