LTFT Training

A number of Foundation doctors are training LTFT.  This may be a lifestyle choice or to manage a health condition or caring responsibility.  Please read the information below if you are considering LTFT training and discuss wth your Educational Supervisor in the first instance.  If you have a health condition and are struggling with full time working as a result, please contact a member of the Foundation team so we can ensure all appropriate support is being offered. 

*Please read the information below carefully, noting that LTFT applications must be submitted with 16 weeks' notice and will only commence at the start of a 4-monthly rotation point.  Notice period of less than 16 weeks will not be considered other than in extenuating health circumstances*

A process map of the LTFT application process is below along with a copy of the LTFT application form which can be downloaded.
