Abstract

Medical specialty training is changing which will result in shorter, more focused training programmes. Senior house officer posts will disappear from August 2007, and be replaced by training posts and trust grade doctors. Eventually specialist registrars in higher specialty training will join with these new training posts to create run-through training. Curricula development and delivery with quality assurance is now the responsibility of a new training board – the Postgraduate Medical Education and Training Board (PMETB). There is an opportunity to create a new specialty of acute medicine to help meet the crisis of care for acutely ill patients in our hospitals.
