Episode 68: Inequalities in healthcare - differential attainment
Manage episode 422322845 series 2560757
Listen to Dr Rohan Mehra, RCP clinical education fellow, (Infectious diseases/microbiology SPR) and Dr Mumtaz Patel, as they shine a spotlight on differential attainment in healthcare. This is a pervasive issue within UK healthcare which requires work from everyone. Here Rohan and Mumtaz illustrate the issue, how it impacts people and what you can do to try and make a difference.
Dr Mumtaz Patel is a consultant in nephrology in Manchester as well as Senior censor and Vice President for education for the RCP. Mumtaz led nationally on the research around Differential Attainment for over 5 years and has led cross-collaborative research across organisations such as GMC, NHSE, royal colleges and within different specialties with a focus on earlier interventions and support to improve educational outcomes and trainee experience. Mumtaz has helped produce national guidance around supporting trainers and trainees in addressing and narrowing the Differential attainment gap. This work has had national and international recognition with presentations at multiple conferences.
