Making it to the Registers

University of Leeds and University of Bedfordshire

An Arts and Humanities Research Council funded project that seeks to interrogate the lived dimensions of the regulation of global, migrant healthcare workers in the UK. Via an in-depth historical and ethnographic study of modern registration and fitness to practice, Making it to the Registers seeks to amplify the voices of overseas-trained healthcare professionals, understand the current relationship between fitness to practice and the inclusion/exclusion of overseas-trained carers, including broader legal, social and cultural influences, and to support the development of a professionalised, competent and diverse healthcare workforce.

Displaced doctors face multiple barriers to achieve full registration and the right to work. Overcoming these barriers requires, in addition to clinical competence, upskilling in cultural understandings and system knowledge.  I’m delighted to support this student-led initiative led by the University of Nottingham to provide mentoring, English-language tuition and personal support to displaced doctors. I send my best wished to all participants as they work towards their goal of becoming NHS doctors, enhancing and diversifying our service and fulfilling their own hopes and dreams.
