Senior Clinical Fellow - Paediatrics and Neonatology
Job overview
We are seeking to employ a Paediatric Clinical Fellow (ST4-8 equivalent) in Paediatrics for a fixed time period of 1 year.
The post will be based in acute Paediatrics with Neonatology at West Middlesex Hospital. The post-holder will work alongside London Deanery trainees from general practice and paediatrics on a combined rota, with access to educational opportunities, including daily teaching sessions and simulation sessions.
The Special Care Baby Unit is based within the Queen Mary Maternity and has 16 cots, 2 of which are open cots designated for Intensive Care. Infants under 1kg or 30 weeks gestation are stabilised prior to transfer to the perinatal unit within the North-West London Network.
There is a commitment to teaching and learning at all levels with an active weekly teaching programme.
The posts cover all paediatric inpatient and new-born areas of clinical care, working with the existing paediatric team. They are ideally suited to trainees who want to gain clinical skills in a general hospital setting of undifferentiated presentations. The combined rota gives clinical experience in management of general paediatric patients and neonatology, including stabilisation of critically ill children and new-borns prior to transfer to other tertiary units for ongoing care.
The post would be suitable for a clinician who has 2+ years of paediatric experience (with at least 6 months of neonatal experience).
