Job description
In this role you will be working within a supportive and educationally focussed environment, you will be providing junior level experience (equivalent to FY2/ST1-2) in a teaching hospital within all the main medical sub-specialities.
This post is based at Royal Preston Hospital, and you will be an integral part of our team and will be involved directly with the day-to-day functioning of Medical Assessment Unit (MAU), Emergency department (ED) and Same day emergency care (SDEC). There may be some cross site working as and when required.
You will be required to work closely with GP and Emergency Department colleagues while accepting patients for assessment in SDEC. Our SDEC accepts ED ambulatory patients and GP referrals, who are assessed by ACPs and junior doctors in the unit. These patients are reviewed by senior decision makers and then a final management plan is made. The majority of the patients are discharged with follow up plans as required. Working on the SDEC provides good learning opportunities with one-to-one interactions with consultants and registrars.
As a junior clinical fellow, you would be required to support Senior doctors with our ward jobs and help with clerking as required.
We are keen to develop our doctors' skills and you would have opportunities to perform invasive procedures like lumbar puncture, ascitic paracentesis (diagnostic and therapeutic) and pleural aspiration.
