Wessex Buddies Scheme

​The Wessex Buddies Scheme is a voluntary, deanery-wide monitor-like scheme in which level 1 paediatric trainees are 'buddied' by level 2 and 3 trainees. The scheme provides training for 'buddies' (initial and ongoing) and a matching process, based on trainees' choice, to combine trainees with similar clinical interests. The scheme also provides ongoing support for all participants, a referral pathway for concerns and a link with the RCPCH mentoring network.

Flash Mob Teaching

​Unscheduled, opportunistic teaching in the Emergency Department. This initiative is aimed at teaching small groups of ED staff for 10 minutes and then repeating this session another small group, and then another. Using this method, many members of the multidisciplinary team can be taught over the period of an hour, something that would not be otherwise achievable in an busy emergency department.
