Job overview
A full time post as a Senior Clinical Fellow in Emergency Surgery is available at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
The post will be for a term of year, with the option of extension for a further year, subject to agreement.
Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has one of the largest Emergency General Surgery Units in the UK.
The Surgical Emergency Unit (SEU) comprises a surgical triage area, dedicated emergency surgery beds, a surgical ambulatory care unit, access to emergency general surgery theatres with timely and appropriate access to all diagnostic services.
The SEU team receives support, over the course of a year, from Consultant General Surgeons, surgical ST+ grades, surgical CT grades and FY grades.
The SEU Fellows provide senior surgical input to emergency general surgery and abdominal trauma patients at all stages of the emergency surgery and trauma pathways from initial triage and assessment to surgery and post-operative care.
Candidates are very welcome to visit the department and are invited to contact Mr Geoff Roberts, Consultant Surgeon and Clinical Lead for SEU, Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Main duties of the job
The post-holder will work primarily on the Surgical Emergency Unit (SEU) and in the Emergency General Surgery Theatres on a shift system to provide senior input to general surgical emergency and major abdominal trauma patients, both on the SEU and in the Accident and Emergency Department.
The post-holder will be required to participate in, and lead, programmes for teaching medical students, training junior doctors and in the facilitation of clinical examinations.
Active participation in weekly academic meetings, lectures and journal clubs will be actively encouraged.
The unit is actively involved in local, regional and national research programmes where it takes the lead in many areas. There will be extensive opportunities to be involved in research and audit with the likelihood of publication. The successful applicant will be expected to be involved in the organisation of the Annual Oxford Emergency General Surgery Conference and to fully participate in the Oxford Surgical Collaborative meetings.
The post-holder will be required to keep himself/herself fully up-to-date with their relevant area of practice and to be able to demonstrate this to the satisfaction of the Trust.
