Main duties of the jobAs a tertiary/quaternary referral hospital many of the patients seen here are extremely complex and encompass all specialities. The consultant intensivists are fully committed to intensive care with no other clinical responsibilities, so all care is consultant led.

Advanced support includes ECMO/VAD which is carried out in the CICU. There is separate consultant cover for PICU, NICU, CICU and CATS with two consultant led ward rounds on each unit every day. Formalised unit teaching activities are arranged around weekly teaching days and one monthly teaching day involving fellows from other North London PICUs.

The appointees will be required to take a share in all activities of the unit. This will include partaking in "on call" duties, which are an integral part of the full shift as outlined. Although an agreed duty rota is carefully followed, occasional emergency cover may be required. Unit and hospital protocols exist, and the post-holder is expected to adopt management which takes note of these.
