Commencing with caring for those who care
It isn’t a healthy situation – as the number of doctors emotionally burnt out has topped 34% while sickness in our NHS workforce is on the climb, again.
And so the first session at our BIDA National Conference (10 October, please see poster) will discuss how to ensure the wellbeing of our medics is looked after properly.
Feeling valued in their workplace is a huge consideration and for international doctors practicing in the UK, safely settling into a new job and environment is paramount.
How to achieve this will be under investigation in Session One of the conference, which is a gathering of medics from around the globe currently plying their trade in Britain.
The whole event will have essential issues such as this at its heart, and so it is sure to garner healthy numbers of guests.

Where serious healthcare gets debated
We are a few short weeks away from our national conference in Manchester, where we can promise the whole gamut of healthcare’s future will come under the microscope.
Previous conferences have featured topics such as the proper management of antibiotics – where Professor Tjeerd van Staa from the University of Manchester challenged the stewardship of these vital drugs.
Details of the conference and an invitation to present on your specialism, can be found at FORTHCOMINGEVENTS.

Our anger over plans to ban, presented to the press
Read how we believe banning overseas doctors from training in specialisms is prejudicial, and dangerous to patients.
BMA proposals mean that international medics who come to the UK to help sick people and prop-up the beleaguered NHS, will now have to work for five years here before they can move onto specialist medical training. This despite them having years of delivering care in other countries including service in war zones and during epidemics.

Unfairness still rife at NHS proceedings
Our President has added his voice to a call for more balance and fairness to be exercised when choosing disciplinary panels.
Professor Amit Sinha is just one of the eminent signatories who believe that the current system is still unfair, biased and discriminatory – despite repeated complaints, recommendations and reports.
This has led to what they describe as a sense of futility when speaking up about issues.
The thoughts of the medics are expressed in their press release, which can be found on our NEWSRELEASES page.
Pyramid visit pinnacle of science conference
The full brochure for BIDA’s 17th International Conference has just been published.
And it promises to be a wonderfully colourful mix of serious debate and historical site seeing.
Amongst the activities planned is a visit to The Valley of the Kings and some time at the Giza Pyramids – built for the Pharoh Khufu, and dating back to 2600 B.C!
The science part of the programme will look at good practice from a myriad of countries, so that we can make good health a universal notion.
The pyramid shape has been used to illustrate good nutrition and light pyramids – or prisms – are also used in meditation and yoga.
