We are always absolutely delighted when another trust decides to adopt the #SASsix in their approach to their workforce. Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust joins multiple other Trusts in wanting to support their doctors to be all they can be. We salute you!

🚨 New data collected by the Association of Anaesthetists has revealed significant variation across NHS trusts in the use of SAS contracts. The data reveals doctors aren't receiving the same opportunities as other clinicians, despite playing a critical role in service delivery. #AnSky #MedSky

It is always a great day when we get to add another Trust to our slide. Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust have added implementation of the #SASsix to their medical EDI policy, which launched today. Bravo!

SAS six infographic, featuring the six asks to make a SAS career a viable alternative.

Every early career SAS doctor should have access to an educational supervisor.

All SAS doctors should have equity of access to professional development opportunities relevant to their stage of career.

All specialty doctors who meet the required capabilities should have the opportunity to become specialists.

Senior SAS doctors should be offered the opportunity to be educators at every level on a par with consultants e.g. educational supervisors, clinical supervisors, directors of medical education.

All extended roles in leadership and management should be open to all substantive medical staff that is, consultants and appropriately experienced SAS doctors.

All LEDs employed for more than two years within one NHS employer should be offered the opportunity to transfer to the appropriate SAS contract.
