Advice for F1 doctors
'The greatest gift that one generation can leave for the next is knowledge', we're not entirely sure who said that but it sounds about right. There is simply no replacement for experience.
If you ask many doctors, when did they feel that they learnt Medicine, the vast majority will tell you that it was when they started working as an F1. When you graduate, there is such a steep learning curve because there are so many things which are so completely alien and you never came across them at Medical School. This is where the experience of those who have 'been there' and 'done it' becomes invaluable.
In these videos, some of our Nursing Colleagues and three junior doctors, Josie, Matt and Genna provide extremely useful advice for the incoming F1. Tips on how to navigate ward rounds, produce effective patient lists, looking after yourself and more. We hope that incoming F1s find this a useful resource.
