Junior Doctor Clinical Audit Event
Winners announced at Junior Doctor Clinical Audit Event
On 17th November 2011 the finalists for ‘Junior Doctor Clinical Audit of the Year’ assembled in Leicester. The event incorporated presentations from the 2010 winners, plus guidance on how to deliver effective clinical audit from NICE and clinical audit professionals. The winners of the ‘Martin Ferris Award’ were Drs Lees, Harrison and Reed from Northumbria Healthcare Trust. Clear winners (pictured) of the ‘Junior Doctor Audit of the Year’ competition were Drs Maughan, Eyre, Hanna, Fawcett and Reckless from John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for their ‘An Apple a Day keeps a VTE at bay’ poster. We thank all of those junior doctors who took time to participate in the competition and we will be supplying further details regarding the posters and the event in due course.
