About the Thrive in Psychiatry campaign

The College is running a Thrive in Psychiatry campaign to help retain psychiatrists and support our members to thrive in the profession. Catch up with the podcasts we've produced during the campaign.

Since the campaign launched on 28 October we have produced two podcasts.

The first podcast

In the first of a series of podcasts exploring the challenges members face, we discuss what needs to be done to support psychiatrists with carer responsibilities, and neurodivergent psychiatrists.

We also discuss taking a break and the role of employers, and delve into leadership and why it might be something you should try.

The College's Presidential Lead for Retention Dr Ananta Dave speaks to Dr Raka Maitra, Dr Shevonne Matheiken and Dr Derek Tracy.

The second podcast

In the second of our series of podcasts exploring ways in which we can help members to thrive in psychiatry, we're looking at the ways in which employers can create an environment for psychiatrists to feel supported and flourish in their careers.

We speak to leaders and psychiatrists at Lancashire and South Cumbria Foundation Trust, where a wide range of supportive measures have been introduced and schemes to help psychiatrists grow into their roles and thrive.

Joining Dr Ananta Dave, Presidential Lead for Retention and Wellbeing at RCPsych on the second podcast are Dr Gareth Thomas, Chief Medical Officer, Dr Dush Mahadevan, Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Dr Oli Sparasci, Consultant psychiatrist, Dr Grace Nichols, Higher Trainee psychiatrist and Imran Chati, Relationship manager, all from LSCFT.
