You're welcome!

Awesome💎💛🌟
Helpful videos 👍
😁😁
The people who say that the working hours in the UK are long clearly have never worked in India.
🤣🤣
True
It’s so true. Interns work like crazy and are expected to be in the hospital for 36 hours straight ! Even if you have done a night duty there is no excuse ! UK work regulations feels like luxury for Indians 🥺
yep I used to work 12 hrs eventhough I had to work just 8 hours in a private hospital because of the shortage of duty doctors ,I did not even get paid for extra hours!!!
did not have holidays not even on sunday!! and I could take just 1 half day off in an entire year and I was already getting a frown from the consultant just for that
eventhough I loved to work i felt frustrated and felt I was taken for granted
Too right mate, I work almost 150 hours a week, and im just an intern.
Excellent 👌👌👌👌 information
Thanks a lot!
Great 👍
😊
Mam thanks for website it is really really very help ful
Our pleasure 🤗
@@RoadToUK mam I have a question if we couldn't clear mrcp after fy2 or ct1 grade do we struck at the same grade. we could not become consultants?
Hello guys, could you please shed more light on EDIC? I'm planning to pursue it & there aren't many reliable resources. It would be wonderful if you covered it.

How can i maximize the annual leave days spent at home..i.e Pakistan...9 or 11 days aren't enough as I can only go home once or twice.
Hey, thanks for all the information but can you cover the 1:4 or 1:11 rotas? I couldn't understand what they meant.
I see usually 1:8 on call rota and I just saw a 1:29 full shift rota?
What do those mean? Thanks again.
Can u pls give some detailed information on Anesthesia residents duty roster n how they r paid etc....thanks in advnce
Yes plz need a video on that
Thanks so much.really useful video.
Are annual leaves paid?
Yes they are!
Hello Ibreez!
While working as a junior dr., can I practice aesthetics during my days off?
Like I am a good at aesthetics and currently are performing such procedures in my home country!
It only takes 20 to 30 mins to perform a procedure and it is well payed.
Thank you so much!
You'd need to be licensed to do so and would need to ensure you meet the UKVI requirements for a second job
thanks a lot for ur videos. i have a question
what should we do for friday pray? is it permited to leave about two hours for pray?
You are allowed breaks. Breaks are half an hour long. Many hospitals have jumuah prayer facilities but they do not require 2 hours of your time.
Sorry, but I can’t fully understand
If I finished my shifts in a nhs job which took me up to 48 hours per week , Did I have maximum up to 20 hours per week for work as locum as an img on visa tier 2 ??
That’s mean total working hours per week 68 hours ( 48 hours as maximum hours for main job + 20 hours limit for visa tier 2 )
The 20 hour limit is only if you locum in another hospital (not the one you're employed in).
Hi , could u pls guide me regarding non resident on call mean, what would the pay be and hours of work in a week be like
It would depend on your level and the specialty.
Sir, I have Hepatitis B virus. Can I apply for PLAB or MRCP and get a job with hepatitis?
Many people say that night duty, on calls , weekends days have give more hourly wage... If my duty is 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday to Friday.. Then if my night shift is available on Tuesday or Wednesday from 8:00 PM to 7:00 AM.. So, on tuesday or wednesday I have to skip regular shift or i have to do both regular shift from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm and after 3 hours from 8:00 pm we have to do night shift?
Is this night shift give more hourly wage?
You have a set rota pattern as shown in the video. You can't skip your contracted work.
Can you explain me that can i enter to speciality training after mrcp without doing core training in uk
Please see: ua-cam.com/video/J0L3WVm_wJA/v-deo.html
With exception reporting - how do the rota people not know there is understaffing?
It can be that someone has called in sick that morning, leaving a gap.
I have been doing a shift work as engineer, and must admit a 12hr shift pattern with 4days on, 6 days off, 4 nights on, 4 days off, 3day+3nights on & 4 days off and than restart again. This pattern gives good balance. This eight hour shift pattern is horrible.😮

Working in NHS as a junior doctor
How locum hours can a doctor work practically ???
Pls reply
Depends on your work schedule.
I got to know that Plab 1 and Plab 2 dates are not available for 1 year respectively for IMGs !! Is it true ? Can you please check if this is true ?
Omg, is this true?
No this is not true.
@@RoadToUK How to check the available dates for an IMG from India ??
Can you only work LTFT if you’re in a training job? What about non training?
Yes you can be LTFT for both training and non training.
Well most trust won't let you utilise the leave to maximum like adding many lieu days together
Not necessarily. It's down to ensuring you ask early enough and being cognizant of what others have asked for during that time. We've done it and others have as well.
Question for work schedule for A&E. If your contract say 40 hours per week, but with this schedule in 1st week I can see shift is 9 hours long so per week it become 45 hours .. can we get paid extra for 5 hours which we will be above 40 hours..
It all averages out to 48 hours a week and the pay is adjusted accordingly
@@RoadToUK Thank you for reply
After clearing plab and getting my gmc registration, can I come to uk after two years? As in, not immediately after the registration?
Please reply
Yes but you need to pay to keep the registration valid and do yearly appraisals if you want the license to be valid as well.
I have a question!! can i will be able to do other part time jobs while working on NHS?
Not on a work visa as it states you can only do the work that is mentioned for the visa itself
What about dependent visa?
You need to see the Malaysia doctor working hours🤣 60 hours a week for house officers and weekend are just weekdays
Oh wow!
@@RoadToUK I really want to work in the UK once I complete my house officer job, work life balance is so much better and it's a much healthier option. Too much of toxicity in the way things are run over here. The self doubt and fear you have walking into work isn't going to benefit anyone.
You should see Indian doctors then...
@@MadhaviKrishnan97 yeah 🤣
Hi. What if you don't avail your annual leaves for that particular year? will they lapse or be carried forward the next year?
Annual doesn't carry over. If it's not used, it's gone.
@@RoadToUK thanks and keep up the good work.
How many months vacation can a doctor in the NHS can get?
At the minimum, it's 27 days in a year.
Can a person do 5 hrs locum work in another hospital along with nhs after 8 hrs duty
Yes as long as they don't go over their hours
For core training in internal medicine core training, how many hours a day?
Contractually it would not matter what your role is- it has to follow the legal agreement.
what if i wish to work only 9 to 4 as junior doctor is it possible in NHS ?
Yes
7:22 is this for interns or consultants?
Thanks for this!! Are these leave days paid or unpaid?
Paid!
😮😮
If the job is only for 6 months how annual leave is calculated
Typically around 13 days but you can check your contract and know for sure.
So can you take maternity leave while your specialty training is going on?
Yes.
For how long they give maternity leave for junior doc???
Hello mam... Does this work hour limit of 48 hours include locum hours too.. ??
Yes.
@@RoadToUK so I can't work beyond 48 hrs a week... Cz I've to pay back my education loan
@@amulcool7229 It's an average of 48 hours that cannot be exceeded.
@@RoadToUK thank u ma'am
If i have just started working with NHS as non training or training with just 3-4 months. Can i get maternity leave with such less period of work? And would it be paid unpaid?
It's always best to confer with BMA. They can give clear guidance.
These working hours and shifts ( example acute medicine ) are for resident junior doctors? , or are they for consultant?
These are not for consultants.
@@RoadToUK appreciate your reply . Thanks!!
Only yesterday on the news I saw an NHS doctor say she finished her shift at 11pm and had to be back to work the next morning by 7am. There’s no 11 hour gap there between shifts.
There are rules in place to report such incidents and exception report to ensure you stay compliant. We have used them many times to get hours and/or pay back. Failure to do so on part of an individual does not mean there is no recourse.
😅lol people were like you work 14 hours a day , this is so much less stressful
It really is!
As a junior doctor how many days you get off in a month?
Depends on the rota pattern.
In Pakistan i am doing 80hrs \week as a critical care medicine trainee and earning only 300 pounds\ month
Oh wow!
A&E has Best ... better than 24hr shift A&E in india
👍🏻
What about 72 hrs

That information doesn't exist as far as we know.
Is annual leave fully paid??
Yes.
I have a request.

👍🏻

It's never too late :)

Yes.

🧒🏻
Over the years every worker has had a "wage cut" because wage rises that are below inflation .........so why do the doctors think they are a special case and should have their salaries restored ???????????
Just us, huh?
