Induction for overseas qualified doctors.
This study describes a strategy for the integration of overseas doctors with different professional and cultural backgrounds. A central induction course, complementing local trust-based induction programmes, was developed and evaluated by the London Deanery. Most participants found the course helpful, and their comments were used to further improve it.
