Trust Grade Clinical Fellow in Critical Care

2 weeks ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom Whittington Health NHS Trust Full time

Duties involve day-to-day clinical management of patients on the 10 bedded adult Critical Care Unit which has 700 admissions a year, as well as supporting the Critical Care Outreach service.

These appointments are to enable us to continue running a 9-person rota, with 7 of these posts in recognised training programmes.

The Unit is fully covered by Consultant Intensivists in a dedicated Critical Care rota.


These are whole time posts on a 6 month contract for 40 hours a week plus an additional on call supplement as a result of the out of hours duties and will be paid on the appropriate scale according to experience.

Although these are trust funded service posts, the clinical duties and teaching components are the same as in our deanery funded SHO training posts.


You will participate in the SHO ICU resident staff cover based on a 1 in 9 full shift rota (Day 8.30am-9.30pm, Night 8.30pm-9.30am).

The posts are EWTD compliant and working hours calculations include attendance at teaching sessions as well as prospective cover for annual and study leave.


Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone.

Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff.

We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief.

The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences.

We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
