London, Greater London, United Kingdom King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Full time
Position Overview:

As a key member of the healthcare team, you will be expected to provide exceptional medical care across various sites as required by the service. Your role will involve close collaboration with clinical, medical, and managerial colleagues to ensure high-quality healthcare delivery to patients.

Clinical Responsibilities:

Your duties will encompass all aspects of documentation and care for medical and surgical paediatric inpatients, outpatients, and children presenting to the emergency department. You will assist consultants in teaching both undergraduate and postgraduate trainees in paediatrics, and your involvement in departmental quality improvement initiatives will be encouraged.

The department has recently expanded, featuring a paediatric clinical decision unit along with dedicated ambulant and trolley areas. Additionally, there is a separate adolescent and sensory room, and a high dependency unit (HDU) cubicle distinct from the main resuscitation area, utilized for procedural sedation.

The paediatric emergency department operates 24/7, staffed entirely by trained children's nurses. Medical staffing is a collaborative effort between Child Health and Emergency Medicine teams, including a paediatric nurse consultant and an established advanced clinical practitioner program.

Our team also includes liaison health visitors and youth workers dedicated to supporting our most vulnerable young patients.

Trauma Care:

As the major trauma center for the region, we receive both adult and paediatric patients via ambulance and helicopter services, with a helipad operational around the clock. On average, we treat 250 children annually who have experienced major trauma, including a significant number of penetrating injuries. These patients are assessed by a consultant-led multidisciplinary trauma team upon arrival, ensuring immediate access to imaging, interventional radiology, and damage control surgery.

Team Collaboration:

You will share responsibilities with colleagues to provide continuous coverage for the unit, ensuring availability 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, on a rotational basis. This includes covering for colleagues during periods of annual leave and short-term sickness, as well as managing outpatient clinic commitments in peripheral hospitals as agreed with the management team.

Infection Control:

It is essential to be aware of and comply with all infection prevention and control policies, including hand hygiene, personal hygiene, and environmental hygiene.

Qualifications:

The ideal candidate will possess a registerable medical qualification and demonstrate competencies expected of a new ST4 level paediatric trainee or above. A Level 3 Safeguarding certificate is required, along with a thorough understanding of medical audit principles and quality improvement processes. Candidates should have completed audit projects and have experience in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and exam preparation.

Personal Attributes:

We seek an effective communicator who can work collaboratively within a close-knit team and cooperate with all medical and paramedical staff. Flexibility and resilience are key attributes for success in this role.
