New junior doctors have just completed their first week working in England’s hospitals. With the NHS facing a summer crisis, what’s it been like?

After this episode was published, Health Education England responded:

"We have worked hard to ensure that robust educational and personal support mechanisms for F1 doctors are in place, such as named clinical and educational supervisors, a shadowing period prior to commencing in post, and structured teaching programmes. 

We know that Foundation doctors may have been exposed to a range of traumatic and distressing experiences as they begin their medical careers, but we would like to encourage them to seek the support that is available through their supervisor networks and their training programme directors."  - Dr Mike Masding, Lead Foundation School Director at Health Education England
