Senior Clinical Fellow in Critical Care Retrieval and Transfer - Bangor, United Kingdom - Swansea Bay University Health Board
Description
Job summary
These are posts based in North Wales , and involve combining sessions in transfer and retrieval medicine, critical care and/or anaesthesia. This is a full-time post with out of hour's commitments. The job plan is negotiable, depending on individual's interests and service requirements, and split into 2 typical job plan will include:
The job is suitable for doctors who have completed core training in the Adult Critical Care Transfer Service Cymru (ACCTS), intensive care or anaesthesia and have a minimum of 18 months of experience in anaesthesia.
This is a unique opportunity to be part of the development of a national Critical Care Transfer Service for the people of Wales. Established to provide high-quality intensive care during the inter-hospital transfer of the critically ill patient.
ACCTS Cymru, in partnership with the Welsh Critical Care Network and EMRTS Cymru, is seeking experienced, motivated, and enthusiastic senior retrieval and transfer medicine specialists to support the development of this bespoke service for Wales.
There are around 600 critical care (Level 2 and Level 3) transfers in Wales per annum. It is anticipated that the number of transfers will increase over the coming years as various regional networks become established and mature, as well as an increasing demand for critical care services more generally.
Main duties of the job
ACCTS is a predominately road-based service deployed with dedicated critical care transfer vehicles and equipment. The Retrieval and Transfer physician will deploy in a team alongside a support worker and a retrieval and transfer practitioner drawn from a pool of nurses and allied health professionals with extensive intensive care experience and specific training in inter-facility critical care transfer. ACCTS in partnership with WAA/EMRTS will operate a rotary wing model of retrieval and transfer to support long-distance transfers.
Upon completion of appropriate training and a period of targeted clinical experience, it would be expected that you would then take up a full part in the duty rota. The ability to work both day and night shifts is an essential part of the role.
Whilst a base location will be agreed upon with the successful candidate there may be a need to travel to our various bases, across Wales for education and service delivery requirements and all candidates would be expected to contribute to twilight or overnight cover.
The departments of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care at Glan Clwyd Hospital will offer a training program with a view to some candidates staying on for a further 2 years to complete the core training curriculum in anesthesia, to allow application for entry into specialist training in Anaesthesia or Intensive Care Medicine.
