European Working Time Regulations /Junior Doctor Rota Support

The CHS Junior Doctor/EWTR Support function is part of the Medical Education Department, located in the Education Centre of the Sunderland Royal Hospital.

Ann Thompson, as EWTR/Rota Support Officer is responsible for offering support and guidance to departments and junior doctors in rota design and implementation in order to ensure compliance with national directives.

There has over the past 2 years been considerable changes to national legislation and CHS has seen EWTR embedded within departments’ working practices.  The EWTR function has been specifically created to help identify ways in which the medical education department as a whole can further assist departments in supporting junior doctors working and also in looking at changes to working practices if necessary.
