The aim of this 12 month post is to equip the fellow with knowledge and skills in symptom control, management of side effects of cancer treatments, psychological support, complex pain management and research in supportive care. The development of this knowledge will be underpinned by a curriculum in supportive oncology, developed and badged by the UK Association of Supportive Care in cancer (UKASCC) and endorsed by the Royal College of Radiologists. Demonstration of achievement of the curriculum including completion of appropriate workplace based assessments and attendance at national (remote) teaching events will result in a certificate of fellowship completion at the end of the 12 months from UKASCC.

- Assessments and care delivered will range from complex assessment of physical, psychological, spiritual and social needs to complex end of life care.
- Clinical work within the Clinical Decisions Unit will involve the assessment of patients presenting acutely with symptoms and the acute management of these.
- The fellow will also have the opportunity to work clinically in the late effects clinic, assessing complex needs of patients post-treatment and addressing the needs of patients after cancer treatment to facilitate improved quality of life.
