Contract: Full time - Fixed Term for 6 months
Job ref: 271-INT-5768668-A
Location: London
Salary: £75,117 to £88,517
Start date: Between April 2024 and March 2025.
The paediatric critical care departments at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), London, UK, invite applications for a training fellowship in paediatric intensive care medicine. Rotations can include time on the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (CICU), and the Children's Acute Transport Service (CATS).
We are able offer bespoke paediatric and neonatal critical care placements for an anaesthetist, paediatrician, cardiologist, paediatric emergency physician or other relevant specialty wishing to gain paediatric intensive care medicine (PICM) experience. This could be a 6-24-months NICU/PICU/CICU/CATS placement, or alternatively, a two-year fellowship (including PICU, CICU and CATS) for those wishing to train as paediatric intensivists. Experienced PICM applicants approaching consultant level may wish to spend time on the ‘PICU senior tier' - a pre-consultant leadership role with the opportunity to lead ward rounds and run the shop floor.
We welcome applications from registrars from a range of backgrounds with a range of experience and can discuss individual training needs.
Our PICM fellows are under the supervision of a team of consultants in each ICU area. All posts are accredited for training by the College of Intensive Care Medicine (CICM) of Australia and New Zealand. PICM training at GOSH is designed to prepare you for a career in PICM as an excellent clinician, leader and thinker. Each trainee will be allocated an educational supervisor who will provide guidance on quality improvement projects and completing publishable research.
Applicants for all roles should have completed a minimum of two years of training at the equivalent of specialist registrar level (four years post-graduation) in either paediatrics or anaesthesia and have experience in a critical care field. This equates to at least six months experience in a level three NICU for paediatricians or six months paediatric anaesthesia or adult ICU for anaesthetists. Adult intensivists with at least two years adult ICU experience are also eligible to apply. Where applicable, it is an essential requirement that applicants have completed and passed the IELTS or OET examination to the required pass-mark standard for GMC Registration. In the written application applicants should be explicitly clear about their current IELTS or OET pass-mark, and the amount of time spent at registrar grade (or equivalent) on a level 3 NICU, a PICU, or an adult ICU. Anaesthetists should make clear their experience of paediatric anaesthesia at registrar level. We support MTI/IPSS pathway for international trainees.
