MMC. Coventry and Warwickshire Core Medical Training programme includes doctors
from three NHS trust in the Coventry and Warwickshire region namely University
Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust (UHCW), South Warwick General
Hospital NHS Trust (SWGH) and George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust (GEH).

UHCW NHS Trust is based at two sites. The main
Hospital is located at Coventry and some of the trainees may have their
placement at St Cross Hospital in Rugby. SWGH hospital is located in Warwick
and GEH is located in Nuneaton.

The programme is under the West Midland Deanery (WMD) and forms one of the
foundation schools to the total of six schools in the West Midland region.
Trainees in this school will be rotating through the above mentioned NHS trust
during their training tenure.

The school has established a set of standards, many of which are
generic across the WMD, and all of which are consistent with the national
standards set by the PMETB, by which all our programmes should abide
|
| |
|
The programme is essentially trainee led with set competencies
to be achieved through a streamlined training programme for smooth progression.

Our aim is to deliver high quality training for doctors entering
the programme through national recruitment process. We will strive to provide
ample opportunity for our trainees to meet the standards as outlined in the
Curriculum. Across the WMD we have made an attempt to have a structured
programme schedule for training, covering the generic and general medical
speciality topics outlined in the curricula over two years. Similar
to other training programme across the country, the trainees will have
workplace based assessment and appraisal as set by PMETB which is in the form
electronic portfolio.
