The new NEMOs--changes to initial medical officer training
Abstract:
It is desirable that a Royal Navy Medical Officer is not only medically competent but also a proficient Naval Officer with an ethos common to all Officers, irrespective of specialty or branch. In 2012 Britannia Royal Naval College (BRNC), in conjunction with the Institute of Naval Medicine (INM), modified the New Entry Medical Officer (NEMO) training course to comprise an initial phase at BRNC (15 weeks) followed by a second phase at INM (16 weeks). This is in contrast to the traditional training delivered at INM and Fort Blockhouse prior to joining BRNC for 7 weeks. The following article is a reflection of this experience.
