The Paediatric Intensive Care Unit in Leeds Children’s Hospital is looking for a highly motivated individual to join our team as a clinical fellow. We are primarily looking for those with significant previous PICM experience e.g. post- CCT PICM subspecialty trained doctors but will consider less qualified applicants as well.
The individual will also be expected to contribute to one of the 15 rota slots which follows a shift pattern that includes weekday, evening and weekend shifts.
We have a large 18 bedded Paediatric Intensive Care Unit, providing exposure to critically ill children with a variety of general paediatric pathologies as well as congenital cardiac, neurosurgical, trauma, general surgical, haematological, oncological, renal and liver disease, and long-term ventilation patients. The postholder will work alongside a highly committed multi-professional team in a leading children’s hospital, providing family centred care with opportunities to develop clinical, leadership and research skills.
This role is for an initial period of 12 months based at Leeds General Infirmary in West Yorkshire.
Leeds Children’s Hospital PICU has excellent experience in providing PICM training and feedback from previous subspecialty residents has been extremely positive with them all going on to have successful consultant careers.
Enthusiasm, flexibility and the ability to work in a team is also essential for the individual to succeed in this role.
Applicants must have full GMC registration.
For further details, applicants are encouraged to contact Dr Santosh Sundararajan (Clinical Lead) or Dr David Finn.
