More than 100 doctors hired at county's hospitals
SaTHMore than 160 resident doctors have been recruited by Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH), it has been revealed.
The 167 clinicians, from all stages of their career, have been inducted, and will now be training and working across disciplines including medicine, surgery and women and children's services.
Dr John Jones, medical director at SaTH,, said: "With them they bring experience and passion to help us to continue to provide excellent care to the communities we serve."
The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) is undergoing a transformation programme, and this week marked the first anniversary since work started on its four-storey building expansion.
The induction programme was delivered by the trust's senior clinicians and other staff, to help the resident doctors, formerly known as junior doctors, become familiar with their new working environment.
They will now move on to practical and ward-based learning.
Dr Jones said: "I am delighted to have welcomed 167 new resident doctors to the trust."
