  6. Our geography • 4 Scottish Deaneries • The patch – 5 Health Boards • The peripherality

  7. Foundation Years FYA taster? • All North of Scotland Deanery Foundation Programmes (134 posts) offer as a minimum 4 months in a remote or rural placement • Aberdeen-based with a placement in one of our 6 Rural General Hospitals RGHs • Belford and the Ben – Fort William

  8. Foundation Years A Highland-based year • Some offer a year in Inverness and a year in Aberdeen • Best of both worlds in one programme – a big, bustling University Teaching Hospital AND Inverness’ unique Raigmore Campus with its thriving rural undergraduate programme and the Deanery’s heart for Rural-track Specialty Programmes • We have 27 FY1 and 21 FY2 placements in Highland each for a year

  9. Foundation Years Our Rural- track programme • Based for 2 years in the Highlands and with placements in up to 3 different remote or rural places • FY1 in Inverness and FY2 rotational between Lochgilphead, Oban and Fort William – 12 posts • Lorne and the Isles Hospital, Oban

  11. FY trainees’ feedback

  12. FY trainees’ feedback

  13. “I loved this post! The staff were supportive, the working atmosphere was positive and enjoyable. The clinical teaching was informal but excellent and related to the clinical presentations of the patients. There was a good variety of interesting clinical symptoms and signs and plenty opportunity to be actively involved with the patient in addition to routine FY1 tasks. I would definitely Recommend this post to others and would consider coming back here in the future.” (Fort William)

  14. “The post is good experience in clinical decision making, particularly out of hours. Without registrar support, as an FY2, the responsibility placed upon you certainly provides a learning experience. As A&E and the entire hospital is covered out of hours, the range of experience is huge. And the opportunity to be an air ambulance escort. This post is very challenging but very good in making you change very quickly from a student mindset to a doctor’s. It was very enjoyable and I feel I have learned a lot which will be useful in the future.” (Western Isles)
