2 weeks ago


Northampton, United Kingdom Northampton General Hospital Full time

Job summary

We are looking to recruit a Junior Clinical Fellows to the department of geriatric medicine at Northampton General Hospital to start from the beginning of august 2024 or earlier.

These vacancies arise because of the success of our existing JCF in appointment to IMT, GP and other training programmes. The posts are suitable for Doctors looking to gain more general medicine experience prior to starting Internal Medicine Training, GP Training or before applying for HST posts.

NGH has a strong track record of nurturing non-Deanery doctors towards their chosen training programmes. It is because of this success that we re-recruit each year and these posts are available now because we know many of our existing JCFs have been (or will be) successful in their applications to Internal Medicine Training, GP specialist training and Higher Specialist Training this year. Many of our consultants are 'home-grown' NGH trained and there is a hospital wide ethos of supporting junior doctors in developing their careers.

Geriatric medicine at Northampton General Hospital provides trainees with the opportunity to gain experience of geriatric ward patient care as well as being part of the frailty SDEC team within ED.

Working on the wards provides excellent experience of the full range of medical problems.

The department is well supported by 4 substantive consultant staff and 2 dedicated ortho-geriatricians.

Main duties of the job

Please note these posts are not for MTI status and NGH cannot offer this within Medicine

The post holder will work alongside their ward team of Consultants, SpRs, SCF and other junior medical staff along with all other multidisciplinary health care professionals.

The successful candidate will be allocated an educational and clinical supervisor and encouraged to complete training assessments in line with other trainees at the same level. This includes access to our highly successful Simulation Suite and to JCF -specific training in the Nye Bevan. The training programme is based on the JRCPTB IMT core curriculum and includes mentorship in applying for IMT, GPvST etc.

We wish to appoint candidates with a good foundation in Medicine who are looking towards a career in Medicine, or who wish to broaden their experience before a career choice.

The Directorate of Medicine has Internal Medicine Core Training on Wednesday afternoon with an extensive program of specialty interests and topics across the whole range of general medicine; Junior Doctors are encouraged and supported to take part in clinical case presentations.

In addition we offer dedicated patient safety lectures and practical training on procedures such as ultrasound guided CVP insertion. We have a state-of-the-art Simulation department who provide sessions both to doctors in training and those in Clinical Fellowships. The full programme provides junior doctors with a comprehensive training package.
