About The Role
The Trust reserves the right to close this vacancy early should a significant number of applications be received. Applicants are therefore encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible.
Please read the person specification carefully before applying. Only applicants who clearly demonstrate that they meet all of the essential criteria will be shortlisted for interview. Applications that do not evidence the essential requirements are unlikely to be progressed.
This role offers the opportunity to join The Mid Yorkshire Teaching Trust in a core trainee level post. Depending on your experience you will join as an CT1/CT2 working within a specialty and rotating every four months.
The posts will be a combination of service delivery and educational input within General Medicine and will join a full on-call rota pattern including nights and weekends.
These posts are not recognised UK training posts. However, the post-holders will have a named educational supervisor, and be supported in undertaking a wide range of CV enhancing activities as part of their role as well as taking part in scheduled educational opportunities within the Trust and specialties.
An Introduction to the Division / Specialty from Dr Nigel Artis Divisional Clinical Director
The Medical Division at Mid Yorkshire Teaching Trust provides acute care across the range of medical specialities in a large modern purpose-built hospital in Wakefield, which includes a large Acute Assessment Unit, Acute Elderly Assessment Unit, Coronary Care and Acute (Respiratory) Care Unit. We also provide care for Acute Elderly Admissions and step-down care for patients in a less acute phase of their admission at Dewsbury & District Hospital.
Successful applicants will support speciality teams in Acute Care, Cardiology, Respiratory, Diabetes/Endocrine & Elderly Medicine teams in the management of their in-patient & out-patient workload and will participate in out-of-hours cover across both hospital sites.
Main Duties
From a clinical perspective these posts will participate in the cross-site resident trainee rota. The resident trainee rota is compliant with the 2016 resident doctor contract averaging 48 hours per week.
Duties will be based primarily at Pinderfields & Dewsbury sites although all our medical staff are involved in delivering care to patients on all our sites.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
These roles will enable the post holder to take supervised responsibility for patient care and consolidate the skills they have learned at medical school. As the post holder gains experience, they will remain under clinical supervision but take on increasing responsibility for patient care. In particular they will begin to make management decisions as part of their progress to independent practice.
During their tenure the post holder will further develop their core generic skills and contribute more to the education and training of the wider healthcare workforce. At the end of their tenure the post holder will have begun to demonstrate clinical effectiveness, leadership and the decision-making responsibilities that are essential for the next stage of their careers.
