Junior Clinical Fellow in Acute Medicine
Job overview
Working alongside our consultants in this role, you would assess and manage acute medical common presentations.
We are keen to develop our junior doctors; all junior clinical fellows are allocated an educational supervisor who will work with you to ensure you are developing your skills and knowledge within the role.
Main duties of the job
The Junior Trust Doctor on the MAU is responsible for the admission and care of patients referred from General Practitioners and the Emergency Department.
Junior medical cover on MAU consists of four Clinical Fellows working alongside three Foundation Year 2 doctors in a full shift rota. They are expected to present their cases during consultant-led post-take ward rounds, maintain full, clear clinical notes, and make appropriate handover arrangements when going off duty. They are also responsible for looking after ward patients out of regular hours. Middle-grade doctors will be present on site to supervise them at all times. The post-holder will be required to be as flexible as possible in respect of working hours, in order to allow some flexibility in the MAU rota.
Junior Doctors may be asked to work on either hospital site in the event of emergencies.
As a junior clinical fellow, you would be required to support senior doctors with our ward jobs and help with clerking as required.
Working for our organisation
