Chaos is forecast when doctors take up their hospital posts on August 1st.

Patients 'at risk' in hospital upheaval - Telegraph

Extract:

"Patients' lives will be put at risk as a result of the new junior doctor training scheme, it was claimed yesterday.

Chief executives at the country's leading training hospitals have written to the health secretary seeking assurances that chaos will not ensue when doctors start their new positions on Aug 1.

They say the NHS faces a potentially dangerous upheaval on that day as hundreds of new teams of doctors take up their posts. The continuity of care provided under the old recruitment system may disappear, they added.

Up to 20,000 new vacancies are to be filled on the same day but due to the failure of the computerised selection system many doctors have yet to be assigned posts."
