International Medical Graduates NHS Induction Programme

Not yet rated

International Medical Graduates (IMGs) play an increasingly important role in effective healthcare delivery in the NHS. Their transition to living and working in the UK is recognised to be challenging, with IMGs likely to face difficulties with communication, culture, and ways of working in unfamiliar environments.
Thisguidance brings together resources that can be used as part of induction programmes for IMGs, their supervisors and employers.

An elearning for healthcare (elfh) module has also been developed by HEE to introduce IMGs to the National Induction Programme itself and describes the support doctors new to the NHS can expect from Trusts. The elearning session which can be accessed on the HEE elfh website, also aims to raise educators’ awareness of some of the challenges IMGs may face as they adapt to clinical practice in the NHS.
