Juniors on the move

The early autumn season is crucial for junior doctors moving to new locations. The CMF Welcome Scheme is now in its fifth year. It ensures that students moving to F1 jobs can be linked to local CMF members and don't get 'lost'. Letters are sent to all graduating students and those who respond receive a free copy of Foundations, one of CMF's most popular publications.

Special Interest Links expand

A fresh initiative is the formation of CMF Special Interest Links. So far 13 have been formed. They are for CMF members with shared professional or personal circumstances and interests with the aim to disseminate news, information and resources, broaden connections and deepen fellowship. Examples include: army and navy medics, drug and alcohol recovery, cross-cultural communication, coaching and mentoring, working with torture victims, prison medics, women in surgery.
