DoctorsHandover.co.uk is a space for resident doctors to share practical insights about their rotations across the UK Foundation Programme.
Starting a new job can feel like walking in blind. We believe that by handing over our experiences, just like we do at the end of a shift, we can help future doctors feel better prepared and more confident in their roles.
This platform offers real world experiences covering:
- What day to day tasks are like
- The level of support and supervision
- How the teams are structured
- Rotas, workloads, and ward culture
- Insights into specific hospitals and regions
Our goal is to make the transition into each job smoother, by sharing useful, experience based knowledge from those who have been there.
Whether you’re about to start your F1 year or moving into a new trust, DoctorsHandover is built to help you understand what to expect, and to encourage you to pass that knowledge on.
