    We currently have a vacancy for a dynamic and clinically-focused individual to join our Resuscitation Team.

    This is an exciting opportunity for you to develop your skills and knowledge in the advancing fields of resuscitation in a specialist cardiothoracic hospital with an active primary PCI service as well as transplant services. You will be involved with hands-on practical training, auditing, governance activities, teaching, and team projects, as well as carrying out clinical duties by acting as a member of the cardiac arrest team and the delivery of clinical simulation programmes.

    You will have the opportunity to develop personally and professionally within the team and you will be supported to develop further as an instructor and course director facilitating in-house and national courses such as Deteriorating Patient Workshop, Advanced Life Support, Intermediate Life Support, and Cardiac Advanced Life Support (CALS). You will also be required to work closely with our colleagues at the Guys & St Thomas' sites.

    Main duties of the job The successful applicant will be responsible for delivering training courses ranging from Basic to Advanced Life Support to staff working within the organisation. You will work closely with the Lead Resuscitation Officer and other clinical colleagues in the development of key policies and training programmes aimed at recognising when to escalate care and the early recognition of clinical conditions such as sepsis and acute kidney injury.

    You will attend adult and paediatric emergency calls acting as an expert clinical resource and providing support for the resuscitation and local teams.

    You will perform audit and post-event follow-up related to cardiac arrests and other emergency events where the crash team is activated.

About us Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust comprises five of the UK's best known hospitals - Guy's, St Thomas', Evelina London Children's Hospital, Royal Brompton and Harefield - as well as community services in Lambeth and Southwark, all with a long history of high quality care, clinical excellence, research and innovation.

    We are among the UK's busiest, most successful foundation trusts. We provide specialist care for patients including heart and lung, cancer and renal services as well as a full range of local hospital and community services for people in Lambeth and Southwark.

    We have a long tradition of clinical and scientific achievement and - as part of King's Health Partners - we are one of England's eight academic health sciences centres, bringing together world-class clinical services, teaching and research. We have one of the National Institute for Health Research's biomedical research centres, established with King's College London in 2007, as well as dedicated clinical research facilities. Job description Job responsibilities You will teach resuscitation skills to staff of all grades in a variety of settings, offer clinical support to staff during the management of emergencies, carry out risk assessments of new and existing departments, participate in audit of crash calls, equipment and DNACPR recommendations and assist in incident investigation of problems arising from resuscitations or with the crash team.

    You are expected to develop and maintain good relations with clinical and support staff across the Trust at all levels and with relevant external organisations and instructors.

    You will work effectively as a member of the multidisciplinary team and individually, if required, without direct supervision.

    You will, in conjunction with the Lead Resuscitation Officer, facilitate the process of change and quality management in the department and at trust level.
