Junior Clinical Fellow in Emergency Department- FTC 12 months

The Emergency Department at Croydon University Hospital (CUH) is one of the busiest in London and is a designated Trauma Unit, part of the South West London and Surrey Trauma Network. This post is part of an expansion of the clinical workforce delivering Emergency Medicine including middle grades and consultants. We are increasing our Junior Clinical Fellow posts up to 15 as part of a trainee and trust post roster of 21 at the level of ST1-3. These posts are targeted at doctors who having completed Foundation training (or the equivalent) are interested in a career in emergency medicine or a related speciality. We have an established record of post holders enhancing clinical skills and enabling doctors at this level to progress onto specialist training numbers and consultant equivalent training posts.

Then #ChooseCroydonED, we are a dynamic team who are also increasing the number of senior doctors and nurses working across the department. This will increase the offer of supervision and development we can offer our junior doctors. This is on top of our established track record of preparing doctors for training programmes from these jcf posts.
