MPS Medical School Representatives
MPS Regional Membership Co-ordinators cover every medical school in the UK and Ireland. They provide support and assistance to students, providing free education materials, discounted medical books as well as a variety of other medical resources. Our representatives are also on hand to arrange support and sponsorship of a wide range of activities and social events.
Why MPS Membership is Important
With medical students being brought into contact with patients at earlier stages in medical training, patient complaints have understandably increased. As a result, protection from an organisation like MPS has never been more important. An increasing number of medical schools now require students to have medicolegal protection, including professional indemnity.
MPS membership is free throughout your time at medical school, and brings with it a range of other benefits, including:
- Free education materials, such as a 128MB memory stick for first year students and a free Oxford Handbook for those renewing for their first year qualified.
- Discounts on medical books - we have negotiated discounts for student members on a range of medical books and CDs.
- Free elective protection - as an MPS member during your time at medical school, you will also be provided with free worldwide elective protection on your elective.
- Medicolegal advice - MPS members have access to our emergency telephone advice line to assist and advise on any medicolegal dilemmas that may confront you.
- Revision courses - highly successful revision courses that provide the help you need when you need it most.
Once you have qualified, our support continues, with useful publications and help with continuing professional development.
