Image: Getty Images Doctor apprenticeships part of NHS England staffing plan One out of every 10 job posts in the NHS is unfilled - more than 110,000 vacancies. Currently half of new doctors and nurses have to be recruited from abroad to keep up with demand. New plans for NHS England , which will be announced by the prime minister and health bosses later, will see more training places for health staff and the first ever apprenticeship scheme for doctors. There will also be a consultation on whether medical degree courses could be shortened from five years to four and a new drive to keep existing staff. Our health correspondent has taken a look at how the UK's health staffing numbers compare with other countries. | | | | | | | | |
