We recognise the importance of managing night-time working and its impact as part of your working lives as a doctor in training.
We have therefore worked closely with the Northumbria Centre for Sleep Research to explore relevant doctor-in-training sleep-related topics to help you to mitigate this impact.
This work has been collated into a series of animated videos covering topics ranging from managing shift work to 'game changer' top tips and beyond (see below).

In support of these videos, we also offer the following:
Sleep Deprivation & Fatigue Workshop
Finally, if you are interested in learning even more, we also offer a recurring opportunity to attend a workshop delivered by the director of the Northumbria Centre for Sleep Research, Professor Jason Ellis, entitled "Dealing with Sleep Deprivation & Fatigue - A Practical Guide". Please browse fast.ncl.ac.uk to check for upcoming workshops.
