Department Induction
Video Catalogue
Starting a new rotation in an unfamiliar hospital can be a challenge, with many new faces, new places, and new routines. We aim to support you to feel more confident and connected.
Our full catalogue of Department Induction videos are now available. Each video has been designed to give you a visual insight into the diverse specialties and departments within The Dudley Group.
As you start a new post or prepare for your rotations, the videos will familiarise you with the staffing structure, ward locations, rotas, consultation cover and key processes across the hospital.
Our goal is to help you feel confident, comfortable and well supported, ready to thrive in your new post as you begin your journey with us.

Specialty Induction
Acute Medical Unit
Our Specialty Induction provides an in-depth look at each of the individual departments at The Dudley Group. They are dedicated to explaining the pivotal roles played by the various teams within a particular department, covering important topics such as day-to-day responsibilities, introducing you to your team members, providing insights into on-call duties, and much more.
An example of this is shown below, delivered to all new trainees joining our Acute Medical Unit, to ensure they have an essential toolkit of information when starting a new rotation. This support helps them build confidence and settle in more easily.
