Barrier: There is no local board level commitment.

Solutions:

  • Raise awareness and create board level engagement by presenting the facts to them
  • Make sure they understand the legal requirements and their responsibilities as an employer
  • Make them aware of the enforcement framework and penalties the trust will face
  • Indicate the junior doctor hours that will be lost each week and ask them to consider the impact that this will have on other trust objectives and targets
  • Make them aware of the potential release of funding through banding changes that could be reinvested to support the transition.
