Summary

The post holder will contribute to the busy middle grade rota in paediatric medicine, which is approximately 1 in 6. The on-call rota includes evening, weekend and night duties on a rostered basis. Daytime clinical work will be primarily based on paediatric wards, the childrens emergency department (CED) and paediatric outpatient clinics (depending on specialty). The post holder will be expected to review and manage acute inpatients and supervise more junior trainees. During time in CED they will take referral of acutely unwell patients and provide specialist input, lead a resuscitation team and be part of a major trauma team. There are opportunities for outpatient experience in other subspecialties again depending on need. There is flexibility in this post for non- clinical daytime activity including QI projects, patient safety work and paediatric simulation to allow for leadership development. This post would therefore be suitable for post- CCT trainees wishing to develop their subspecialty experience and leadership skills, thus preparing for consultant job application. It would also be suitable for any ST4+ trainee wishing to take time out of programme. The post holder will be expected to actively contribute to the departmental governance programme, with audits of relevant services and involvement in relevant policy and guidance development. There is a highly regarded, well received and very active departmental multidisciplinary teaching programme and the postholder will be expected to develop enhanced skills in teaching and learning. There will also be opportunity to teach medical students from SGUL
