London, United Kingdom Whittington Health NHS Trust Full time

Job overview

This is a stand alone FY2 equivalent post which has become available due to an unexpected FY2 rotational vacancy.

This is a year long post based in Acute Medicine and Ambulatory care and includes nights and medicine on calls. This post will enable you to further develop clinical knowledge across the general internal medicine curriculum and give you the opportunity to practice many procedures and skills.

You will work with a dynamic multidisciplinary team. Your training will mirror that given to doctors in formal training programmes and you will be allocated a Consultant Supervisor to support your career development. You will be encouraged to grow as a clinician and participate in governance including mortality reviews, QIPs, departmental and trust-wide educational activities. Previous clinical fellows have gone on to training across a spectrum of programmes including IMT, GP training and others.

Working for our organisation

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
