Healthcare Career: A Mind Shift Content Series Is There More to This Healthcare Thing? As an upcoming healthcare professional, I've witnessed firsthand the impact of dedicated caregivers and the significance of our roles. However, I've often wondered: what lies beyond clinical roles? Is there more to this healthcare thing, or am I destined for a lifetime by the bedside? My education has primarily focused on becoming an exceptional nurse, but I've begun to realize that our paths aren't as predetermined as they seem. The typical narrative goes: "graduate from nursing school, relocate to Canada, earn a good salary." But I'm eager to explore beyond this narrative. The truth is, the medical world is evolving rapidly. New aspects of medicine emerge daily, and the healthcare industry is projected to add over 2 million new jobs by 2025. With this growth comes abundant opportunities, but what sets us apart? My name is Inioluwa Oyabambi, a 300-level Nursing student, and I invite you to join me on a journey to discover the vast world of opportunities in healthcare. In this "Healthcare Career: A Mind Shift" series, we'll explore: • The evolving landscape of healthcare careers, beyond clinical roles • Emerging opportunities and specialties, • Skills and strategies for success in the healthcare industry, • And inspiring stories from healthcare professionals.

I saw this quote a few weeks ago and it resonated with me 💭   I love supporting new doctors every year whether it be during their F3 or a speciality doctor taking time out of their training pathway to pursue other goals like exams, additional experience, raising a family etc.   However, I’ll continue to strive to build those long-lasting relationships that span through a doctor's career. Some of the most rewarding work I do is working with a doctor from SHO and supporting them on their journey to become a consultant. This could look like locum consultant jobs or the CESR routes but seeing them fulfil their career goals whilst complementing their personal life, is a joy!   What do you think about this quote? Have you worked with the same client or candidate for 10 years?   #ClientRetention #CareerGoals #DoctorJourney #SupportingDoctors #LocumWork

To my fellow new doctors who have recently completed residency and/or fellowship training. Read this post before you sign a long-term contract.   My top 4 reasons why new doctors DO NOT consider becoming a travel doctor. Including my rebuttals to each. 1.    Your lack of professional experience.  🤔Any moonlighting that you have done as a senior resident or fellow will count towards professional experience.   2.   Not having a “practice home”.  🤔You will have more time to wisely choose your practice home. 3.   Lack of benefits package associated with long term employment agreements. 🤔You can negotiate the difference in your pay rate as a travel doctor. You can also design your own benefits package that will follow you for your entire career regardless of job or employer. 4.   Lack of experience as an independent contractor/1099 contractor.  🤔Any accountant can organize this for you for a small fee.   📢Travel Doctor Pro-Tip📢 If you do not have any work experience, identify three colleagues from your residency/fellowship program who are willing to provide a professional reference for you. One of these colleagues should be a supervising attending. 📚Resources  💡Sol MD Travel Doctor You Tube Channel https://lnkd.in/eXF6xDC9 💡Click here for a FREE partial list of locum tenens companies and their website links. https://lnkd.in/eMbs8Z6K 💡My 9-page Travel Doctor Resource Guide. https://lnkd.in/enJ_cc8a 💡Visit www.SolMDTravel.com for more information.     #traveldoctor  #locumtenens #careerautonomy  #careertransitions  #worklessearnmore

To all IMG Consultants working within the NHS: You are in a unique position to make a difference for your fellow IMG junior doctors who are navigating the challenging path toward NHS roles. I kindly request you to support these junior doctors by helping them secure clinical attachments in your respective trusts. Additionally, if possible, please consider discussing with your trust’s board directors the possibility of making these attachments free or more budget-friendly to ease the financial burden. With the current job market becoming increasingly saturated, providing accessible clinical attachment opportunities could be a game-changer, especially for PLAB aspirants. It’s a small step that can have a big impact, helping them gain valuable NHS experience, build confidence, and strengthen their journey toward a successful career in the UK. Together, we can create a more supportive environment for IMGs striving to make their mark in the NHS. #IMGSupport #NHSConsultants #ClinicalAttachment #PLABAspirants #NHSOpportunities #Mentorship #HealthcareCommunity

Navigating NHS Experience Requirements: A Reflection As an aspiring doctor working towards building a career in the NHS, I find myself facing a recurring challenge that I’m sure many international medical graduates can relate to. In nearly every job post for a Junior Clinical Fellow, there’s a requirement for six months of NHS experience—and attachments are often not considered part of that. While I understand the need for candidates to be familiar with NHS systems, it raises a pressing question: How are we expected to gain this experience without being given the opportunity to work within the NHS? Like many others, I have invested time in clinical attachments, prepared rigorously for exams, gained a solid understanding of NHS protocols, and demonstrated my commitment to patient care in various roles. Yet, without a formal NHS position, it feels like there’s an ever-present barrier to entry. I’m hopeful that more pathways can be created for doctors like myself, who are eager to contribute and gain the necessary experience to further develop our skills and serve the community. For those in similar situations, let’s continue supporting one another as we navigate these challenges together. #NHS #IMGs #MedicalCareers #Opportunities #HealthcareProfessionals #CareerGrowth #MedicalCommunity
