Applications are invited for Specialty Doctor posts in the Wessex Neurological Intensive Care Unit within UHS, to start August 2025. This is a permanent post with a 10 PA contract. The post is suitable for senior registrar-level doctors or equivalent who wish to enhance their knowledge and clinical experience in neurocritical care and neuroanaesthesia and who already have some experience of working in either of these areas and appropriate qualifications to do so.
This post participates in a 1 in 9 full shift rota. You would be well supported by dedicated Consultant input. The 13 Neuro ICU Consultants have varying backgrounds or interests in a number of fields: pre-hospital emergency medicine, trauma, aeromedical transfers, anaesthesia and neuroanaesthesia, intensive care, general internal medicine, rehabilitation medicine, research and academia.
You will need advanced competence in the airway management of the critically unwell patient as well as prior experience working in anaesthesia and critical care for a minimum of at least 24 months.
