Demonstrating the importance of team-based learning, sharing and creating new knowledge, the programme celebrates success stories from the wider healthcare team.
The average person checks their phone some 200 times each day and touches it at least two and a half thousand times, yet the harms and benefits of social media are not widely understood. ‘21st Century
Healthcare’ features a report from a Royal Society of Medicine event that discusses the effects of social media on mental health and wellbeing.
For those who have studied medicine, there are many career pathways. From the frontline of healthcare, to the forefront of innovation, the opportunities are vast. Deciding which specialty to pursue can be overwhelming and this programme talks to medical students and trainees who attended the Royal Society of Medicine’s Specialty Careers Fair to discover how they are exploring the wide variety of medical career paths available.
‘21st Century Healthcare’ also looks into the challenges of child refugee healthcare. With an estimated 11 million child refugees across the globe, the programme explores the availability of healthcare for this vulnerable section of the population and what should be done to improve access.
The programme also features an interview with Chief Executive of the Royal Society of Medicine, Helen Gordon, who talks about how the education for health care professionals needs to adapt to meet the needs of patient care, as well as sharing information on the RSM’s new partnership with the NHS Clinical Entrepreneur programme.
