The Wales SAS doctors committee represents staff, associate specialist and specialty doctors working in NHS Wales.
Our priorities
- Ensure there is greater transparency of coding SAS doctors' work.
- Ensure management roles in health boards are offered to all.
- Ensure SAS terms and conditions of service are up to date.
- Promote quality job planning.
- Encourage SAS doctors to be trained as appraisers.
SAS charter promotion
The committee has created a poster to promote the SAS charter for Wales for members to share via any channels, such as hospitals, libraries and postgrad centres.
Wales SAS survey
BMA Cymru Wales launched a survey of SAS doctors in November 2018 to get a better idea of whether working conditions had improved since the launch of the SAS charter for Wales in 2016.
