Noble's Hospital maintains first place in Junior Doctor medical education

Fri, 27 Oct 2023


Noble’s Hospital is in first place in the North West for the provision of medical education to Junior Doctors.

The results relate to feedback from Internal Medicine Year 1 (IMT1), and Noble’s is followed closely in the ranking by Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital NHS Trust Foundation.

This is the outcome of the annual National Trainee Survey (NTS) for 2023 from the General Medical Council (GMC), which is compulsory for all Junior Doctors in training to complete.

Over 40 doctors undertaking postgraduate training to become either Hospital Consultants or General Practitioners have been seconded by NHS England and are currently working for Manx Care.

These include 24 Foundation Doctors, 6 Internal Medicine Trainees, one Obstetrics and Gynaecology junior Doctor and 10-12 GP Registrars.

Each Junior Doctor is asked to score their hospital, training and environment across 19 categories.

Dr Adrian Dashfield, who leads Medical Education on the Isle of Man within Manx Care, said: “It is an incredible achievement for a small Island to be top again. The Isle of Man is now an extremely popular hospital to be allocated to, particularly for the two-year Foundation Doctor training program for new medical graduates straight after medical school. Applicants require a score of 87% to win a place. Attracting the pick of the crop directly benefits patients.”
