SuppoRTT Champions
What is a SuppoRTT Champion?
SuppoRTT Champions are based a secondary care trust and Specialty School in London & Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Their role is to provide leadership and to ensure that the SuppoRTT strategy is fully implemented and results in a high-quality supported return to training for all.
The SuppoRTT Champion:
- Oversees the return-to-training process;
- Provides Postgraduate Doctors in Training (PDTs) and supervisors with guidance regarding the relevant policies and available resources.
The PDTs first point of contact is their educational supervisor (ES) or training programme director (TPD) throughout the return-to-work process. However, if additional guidance and support is required PDTs, educators and other staff can contact their local SuppoRTT Champion and the SuppoRTT team.
