Report from the UK Shape of Training Steering Group (UKSTSG)

Report from the UK Shape of Training Steering Group (UKSTSG) This report outlines the work of the UKSTSG who are tasked with providing policy advice on NHS workforce planning. It discusses how recommendations in the independent Shape of Training review could be implemented. One of the key recommendations discussed is the need for more generalists and the UKSTSG argues that developing the workforce in this way would support the needs of patients with co-morbidities, provide continuity of care and develop a greater number of doctors working at the interface of primary and secondary care.
