Education would be an advantage, as well as an understanding of Human Factors and their role in error causation. Our medical instructors play a
opportunities for research
This role is based on a 4 day/30 hour week (days flexible around service requirements) for 12 months, and covers our 3 sites of Aintree, Royal
Liverpool and Broadgreen.

The post holder will be part of the Clinical Education Team based in Educational Learning at Liverpool University Foundation Trusts,
based at Aintree and the Royal sites. The primary role will be to deliver all aspects of simulation, with contribution to clinical skills and
resuscitation as required.
- To be able to manage the technical equipment associated with simulation including controlling the manikins and AV equipment
- To facilitate debrief of Simulation scenarios
- The post holder will work in conjunction with the Clinical Training Leads with, core skills and clinical development that will support the

service activity. This will include the development and delivery of simulation training to individuals, groups or teams providing specialist
advice required. This will include the delivery of in situ simulation and assessing the clinical environment for latent error.
- To update and review programmes of education to ensure that they follow curriculum, current evidence base and national guidelines
- To provide support across the educational pathway for medical education.
- Identify and provide support for centre staff undertaking research projects.
- The post holder will be expected to lead Quality improvement programmes that can promote safe patient care through education.
- The post holder will be expected to present their work, locally, nationally and potentially internationally.

Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.

The Trust runs Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool University Dental Hospital and the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.

It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.
