Senior Clinical Fellow in Critical Care Retrieval and Transfer

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 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.

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.
