You will have at least 5 years post MBBS (or equivalent)

For doctors with NHS experience, at least two years working in an ED is essential

Formal and informal educational delivery is a major strength of NUH ED and our DREEAM facilities support a wide range of training activities including the European Trauma Course (ETC). We offer daily timetabled supervision sessions from our ED consultants, enabling our staff to fulfil their portfolio competencies, as well as regular emergency floor "Education in the Fast Lane" multiprofessional, multidisciplinary education sessions. All CESR appointees are expected to support the education of the multiprofessional team in ED.

The Department has 24 hour Consultant cover, and the recent workforce investment has supported an increase across the entirety of our clinical establishment.

What we can offer you as a Fellow in ED:

Work place based assessments

Shop Floor supervision

Opportunities to get involved with teaching (medical students, junior SHO's)

Audit work and QiP's etc

Research opportunities

These are service posts so do not have educational approval, but you will be provided with excellent training and educational opportunities, tailored to meet your individual needs.

Where service provision allows, we encourage our fellows to attend educational teaching sessions.

We expect that you will keep yourself up to date with current knowledge and practice, attend clinical meetings within the department and to participate in audit and in service training of other professionals.
