Junior Staff and Postgraduate Education in a District Hospital.

THERE HAS been a great increase in postgraduate educational activity in this country, as well as in America, over the past few years. In this country postgraduate educational programmes are being organised in a number of hospitals, and the district hospitals often lead university hospitals in this field. This paper seeks to outline and discuss the programme of one district hospital, with special emphasis on the part played by the junior staff. Junior staff training falls into three groups. First, meetings or lectures specially designed for their training; second, meetings organised to appeal to all grades of medical staff; and third, apprenticeship training.
