We are looking for an enthusiastic trainee to join our General Surgery unit at the FY2/CT level. The training and responsibilities of the posts will be tailored for the appointees; however, this is a Trust post, therefore training will not be recognised by the Deanery. You will be allocated a supervisor and given in-house training and access to theatres.
The posts will be based within Upper and Lower GI teams but may require support in other General Surgery wards due to sickness cover, with a shared slot on the on-call rota. Within these teams, you will have opportunities for training sessions with the Colorectal and Upper GI teams in both elective and emergency work. These posts are ideal for anyone who has undergone some basic surgical training and wants to improve their skills and experience in order to move towards their next step in training.
Main duties of the job
As a key member of the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, you will be joining an exceptional team working together to help our patients stay healthy when they need it most.
Job responsibilities
The Trust Doctor will be expected to attend ward rounds, assist in outpatient clinics, assist in operating lists, be part of the on-call rota, as well as other duties. Annual and Study Leave is with prior arrangement and there is internal prospective cover on each surgical firm.
The rota is scheduled as a 1:16 on-call rota, including long days, post takes, nights, as well as weekend and Bank holiday cover.
