Psychiatry

Psychiatry training in Wales

Psychiatrists enjoy a combination of intellectual challenge and the opportunity to really understand the "whole patient".

With opportunities to pursue interests in areas such as child, adult, old age psychiatry and supporting learning disability or rehabilitation, this specialty offers diversity of practice across a broad range of clinical and community settings.

Trainees in Wales benefit from exceptionally supportive peer and professional relationships and high standards of teamwork.

ARCP Minimum Requirements 2010 Curriculum in Core Psychiatry Training

Workplace Based Assessment (WPBA)

This is the assessment of a doctor’s performance in those areas of professional practice best tested in the workplace.
