Supporting Information

1. Transportation
You will be expected to be able to attend emergencies and provide domiciliary care which may include out of hours visits if you are based in a post which works mainly in the community rather than a hospital base at any time during your training programme. If you are not a car driver, you are expected to provide a car and driver at your own expense in order to meet this requirement. Relying on public transport, bicycles and taxis is not normally acceptable.
 
If you do not hold a UK/EEA driving licence but plan to drive on an existing overseas licence, you must ensure that this is valid. The DVLA web site has more information regarding overseas driver licences (https://www.gov.uk/).
 
Please select the appropriate statements below and accept the statement of intent regarding transport in Psychiatry based posts.
  • I hold a full, current UK/EEA driving licence and have access to a vehicle for work purposes
  • I hold a full, current UK/EEA driving licence but do not have access to a vehicle for work purposes
  • I hold an overseas driving licence that currently allows me to drive legally in the UK
  • I do not drive due to medical reasons
  • I do not have a full valid driving licence OR I am taking or considering taking lessons OR I do not drive
 
STATEMENT OF INTENT
I agree that I am able to provide emergency and domiciliary care at any time during my training programme. If, for any reason, my licence ceases to be valid or I no longer have access to a vehicle, I agree to provide a vehicle or vehicle and driver at my own expense so that I may continue to fulfill this requirement unless, if I am unable to drive for medical reasons, my employer is able to make other reasonable adjustments to the job or to this requirement.
