Senior Clinical Development Fellow - PHEM (ST3+ equivalent) in Emergency Medicine
Duration: 1-year Fixed term
Full Time
Anticipated Start Date: August 2025
Based at Grange University Hospital (GUH), Cwmbran, SE Wales
Do you want to develop your skills in Emergency Medicine & Pre-Hospital Care? Do you want to work in a brand-new purpose-built critical care centre? Do you have interests in other areas aligned to Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine which you would like to develop? Are you an enthusiastic, hard-working, willing to learn team player? Do you want to work in a beautiful part of the world as part of a team that values work-life balance? If you answered yes to all of these questions, a Senior Clinical Development Fellow in Emergency Medicine & PHEM in Aneurin Bevan University Health Board could be just right for you.
Main duties of the job
These unique posts spend approximately 50% of the clinical time in PHEM roles either working with the well-established Physician Response Unit or gaining experience with pre-hospital critical care with EMRTS Wales on the Wales Air Ambulance. The Physician Response Unit has been running since 2015 and is an award-winning collaboration with the Welsh ambulance service. Its focus is to bring the ED to the patients' homes by self-tasking senior decision-makers to 999 calls which may be suitable for management in the community. The PRU also responds to RED calls as part of the local 999 response and works collaboratively with the other local community services. The current PHEM fellows are heavily involved in service development and quality improvement, and this would be an integral role for future recruits.
The other 50% of the time is working on the registrar tier at the GUH ED - The department has a good track record of developing senior EM doctors and support will be given to work towards gaining an ST post or Specialist Registration via Article 14. The department has recently supported 2 Specialty and Staff Grade doctors through the Fellowship Examination (FRCEM).
Applications from CCT holders would also be very welcome. The job plan can be adjusted by mutual agreement to provide suitable clinical and managerial experience for those about to embark upon a Consultant career.
