Volunteer for the RMBF Campaign

Volunteer for the RMBF Campaign

Medic Mentor has launched a campaign to raise money for a Doctors’ Hardship Fund, in partnership with the Royal Medical Benevolent Fund (The Doctors Charity).  Our aim is to raise £10,000 to support doctors facing physical, psychological and financial distress as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  During these times doctors have been working long hours, in difficult situations with limited resources. They are faced with an increased number of deaths which has a signifciant emotional and psychological toll.  The fund has been established to ensure that doctors receive the support that they need to stay healthy, so that they can continue to work as doctors and protect the general public.  Most doctors are physically and emotionally resilient, but there are exceptional circumstances that challenge even the most resilient medics, and the RMBF have been around for over 180 years providing that extra support when doctors need help the most.

We are not only seeking donations, but also exceptional volunteers to helps us acheive this goal.  This is a fantastic opportunity for our students to undertake volunteering safely from their homes so that they can contribute to a worthwhile cause, whilst also maintaining social distancing guidelines that have been outlined by the government.  Please visit our COVID-19 Mission page for more details on how to donate and volunteer to support the campaign.  We look forward to working with you!

I learnt the importance of communication and empathy skills which will be invaluable in my future professional career. A robust academic foundation in science, complemented by relevant work experience, gave me the confidence to tackle challenges and pursue medicine as my lifelong profession.

How To Survive Your First Year At University

Even if you’re not a diehard fan, most aspiring medical students have heard of the Emmy winning medical drama, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’. In the very first episode Dr Miranda Bailey gives her five interns (including the infamous Meredith Grey!) five rules to survive their internship, which is roughly equivalent to FY1.

Following in that vein (pardon the pun!), here’s five of my ‘rules’ for surviving and thriving in your first term of uni!

An Interview with Shubhangi

Being involved in running the programmes offered by Medic Mentor, such as the Medical Leadership programme as a scholar has allowed me to see how valuable these are for students. Students can develop their communication and leadership skills through speaking to their peers about relevant topics in medicine. This is really good preparation for medical school interviews as admissions panels are not only looking for how academically capable applicants are, but also how well they are able to articulate their thoughts.
