Royal Alexandra Hospital for Sick Children, Brighton

1 x CLINICAL FELLOW - (ST1-3)
- 6 month contract

We are looking to recruit one enthusiastic SHO level doctor to work in our general paediatric, paediatric critical care and children’s emergency departments at the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital (RACH) in Brighton. The post-holders will not be expected to provide cover to the neonatal unit, which is staffed separately. The successful applicants will contribute to the SHO rota, working the same shift pattern as deanery trainees with the same educational opportunities.

Brighton is a wonderful place to live and work. Close to the South Downs and just by the beach, it has a vibrant night-life and wonderful shopping and eating. The Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital is part of the Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust and is located on the Brighton campus alongside the Royal Sussex County Hospital. We have the region’s only stand-alone children’s emergency department, and the paediatric service provides specialist care to children across the region. With our partner medical school, the Brighton and Sussex Medical School, we provide an active teaching and clinical support environment.

This role will be located within the general paediatric wards.

The post holder accepts that they will also perform duties in occasional emergencies and unforeseen circumstances at the request of the appropriate consultant, in consultation, where practicable, with their colleagues, both senior and junior. While it has been agreed between the professions that they will perform such duties, the Secretary of State stresses that additional commitments arising under this sub-section are exceptions and you should not be required to undertake work of this kind for prolonged periods or on a regular basis.

The clinical duties of the post include the day-to-day care of the patients who are seen in the Children’s Emergency Department and inpatient medical wards, Critical Care Unit and Day Case Unit

You will work a combination of day shifts, long days, night shifts and weekends as part of a European Working Time Directive compliant rota of approximately 13 full-time equivalent people.

At UHSussex we’re proud to be at the heart of the NHS. As one of the UK’s largest acute Trusts, we’re a leading example of the excellence, the ambition and the values that have embodied the NHS for over 70 years.

**Improving lives**: We are a vibrant and inclusive organisation, with hardworking, talented and dedicated individuals, who work together towards a common goal, to always put our Patient First. Our mission is summed up by our ‘where better never stops’ motto and no matter the role at UHSussex, you will play a part in driving us forwards and in improving the lives of patients across Sussex. We treat our patients and staff with the same compassion and empathy we expect for ourselves. We’re here for them when they need us, and we go above and beyond to meet their needs. This can be seen in our wellbeing programme for staff which is extensive and designed to support you when you need it because we know that to look after others we must first look after ourselves.

**Build a career with us**: As a university trust and a leader in healthcare research, we value learning, teaching and training so that we can be the best that we can be. From the moment you start with us and throughout your career we will help you to grow and develop. We hope that in choosing UHSussex you are choosing a long and happy career where you will be able to see the difference you make and feel valued for all that you do.

The RACH is an excellent place to work providing broad experience in all aspects of general paediatrics. We run a busy Children’s Emergency Department (CED) where GP referrals and “walk-in” children are seen by the paediatric team and Emergency Nurse Practitioners. There are medical and surgical paediatric inpatient beds on two large wards, a 10 bed High Dependency Unit, and a busy day-case unit.

The consultant of the week leads daily ward rounds, providing close supervision and teaching at the bedside. There are ample opportunities to present and discuss cases. The post-holder will have the opportunity to be involved in the management of children with complex medical conditions with consultant supervision.

There are F1, SHO-level and middle-grade level rotas, which are EWTD compliant, with trainees working

The department places great importance on teaching & training for junior doctors. There is bleep free teach
