Clinical Fellow in Paediatric Orthopedics and Trauma

1 month ago


Birmingham, United Kingdom Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This post will provide subspecialty training in the generality of Paediatric Orthopaedics and Paediatric Orthopaedic Trauma. While the bulk of the training will be in Paediatric Orthopaedics (Elective and Trauma), exposure to Paediatric Spinal Deformity and Paediatric Orthopaedic Oncology, particularly in theatre, will also be achieved.

The post is suitable for a senior trainee with FRCS (Orth) or equivalent who wishes to pursue a career in Paediatric Orthopaedics. The post may also suit CESR trainees requiring a period of exposure to Paediatric Orthopaedics to satisfy the requirements for entry onto the specialist register but for whom Paediatric Orthopaedics is not a career aspiration. Depending upon numbers of applicants, consideration may also be given to more junior orthopaedic trainees, post-MRCS or equivalent, who can demonstrate sufficient experience in orthopaedics to justify appointment to the post.

BCH runs a daily weekday morning fracture clinic and trauma list (the latter shared between Ortho and Max-Fax). BCH is a tertiary referral centre for most paediatric specialties including orthopaedics. It also provides supra-regional services in many areas including the management of osteogensis imperfect, paediatric spinal deformity, and paediatric orthopaedic oncology.

It is expected that the postholder will take part in the academic activities of the unit and assist in teaching. There will be opportunities for clinical research under the supervision of the Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons and ample time for such research. The appointee will be expected to produce at least one publication and one national presentation during the appointment. The postholder will also have the opportunity to be involved in teaching undergraduates during their Orthopaedic modules.

A subsequent career in Paediatric Orthopaedics at consultant level is expected of post FRCS (Orth) non-CESR applicants.

Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust is the first of its type in the UK. Our Trust was formed in February 2017 to drive forward our commitment to provide the highest quality, world-class physical and mental health care for our women, children and families. Uniting our hospitals means more seamless care; more investment to make greater advances in our specialist treatment and world-leading neo-natal and fetal work. Importantly, it also gives us a greater voice in shaping the future of family-centred care.

Birmingham Children's Hospital is a UK leading specialist paediatric centre with an international reputation in several areas.

Birmingham Women's Hospital is one of two dedicated women's hospitals in the UK, with the busiest single site maternity unit, delivering more than 8,200 babies a year offering a full range of gynaecological, maternity and neonatal care.

Forward Thinking Birmingham (FTB) Mental Health Services are a unique, innovative community and inpatient mental health partnership. Alongside partners FTB offers care pathways of mental health assessment and treatment for young people aged 0-25 years old.

The Department’s monthly Audit/MDT and Clinical Teaching meeting takes place on the 4th Thursday of the month.

The postholder would be welcome to attend other clinic and theatre sessions during the week to see interesting cases should they wish.

The postholder would be expected to cross cover certain clinics and lists to ensure an EWTR/New Deal compliant rota. Details of such cross cover will be available when the 6 monthly rota is finalized in advance of the postholder’s start date.

The postholder would be expected to cross cover certain clinics and lists for colleagues’ annual and study leave. Details of such cross cover will be shown on the monthly on call rota produced by the Admin Reg.

As the daily rota remains under regular review to ensure that staffing levels are best suited to the needs of the department, the timetable may change prior to the appointee’s start date at BWC.
