An opportunity to work at Barts Heart and Thorax Centre, the largest Cardiothoracic Centre in Europe. The service would like to appoint proactive and highly-motivated individuals to join the complex tertiary service provided by Cardiothoracic Surgery. Applicants will need to have a broad experience in ward-based medical work.
Role Description
The appointee will be mainly managing the care of adult cardiac and thoracic patients on the ward, will have time in theatre and will also have the opportunity to develop a research and audit portfolio. There is a consultant-led ward round every morning attended by Senior Fellow, Junior Fellow, Nursing staff, and Pharmacists. There will be opportunities to undertake a wide range of procedures, e.g., pleural drainage. You will work within a team of 11 Junior Fellows and one nurse practitioner.
Application Information

Post Details
Clinical fellow posts are available for six months. The post holders will join a team of 11 SHOs on a 1a banded rota. Duties will primarily be on the surgical wards, but the rota has been configured to allow equitable access to theatre and also the opportunity to enhance their portfolio. The post holder will work closely with his/her SHO colleagues as well as cardiothoracic surgery registrars and the ITU team.
