Description
Clinical Fellow Post
Department of Gynaecological Oncology, Northern Gynaecological Oncology Centre, (NGOC)
Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust, Tyne & Wear.
This is an exciting opportunity for motivated individuals, interested in Gynaecological Oncology to join a reputable and established team of clinicians and researchers. The successful applicant will gain experience in managing complex oncological and surgical patients, and will be able to participate in clinical research and audits. This post is for 5 months which may be extended to a longer period, subject to clinical needs and satisfactory progress.
Based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Gateshead, the Northern Gynaecological Oncology Centre (NGOC) offers a broad range of surgery, and is famed for its ultra-radical surgical repertoire, and early adoption of innovation. It is a European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) accredited Centre of Excellence for Ovarian Cancer.
The post holder’s clinical duties will be based on our in-patient surgical ward, outpatient clinics and operating theatre. The work on the ward encompasses arranging investigations, selecting appropriate treatment and providing peri-operative care. This includes consultations on Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) for review of gynaecological oncology patients who need to be seen in a (semi-)urgent timeframe. The post holder will require excellent communication skills to work on this ward providing care to patients with a wide range of disease presentations. Team working and organizational skills are paramount in the care of our patients. The post holder will be required to demonstrate an awareness of the limitations of their practice.
The post holder will have the opportunity to contribute to a variety of outpatient clinics which include new and follow-up gynaecological oncology, colposcopy and vulva clinics. They will be able to assist in operating theatres and will have the opportunity to develop surgical skills.
The successful candidate will take part in a full shift rota, with 6 other trainees and this is to manage gynaecological oncology patients only. There is no obstetric or general gynaecology on call. This is a non-resident on call 1:7 on a 2-tier rota. When first on call you will be supported by a Subspecialty Fellow in the first period and a consultant off-site. This post is EWTD compliant.
Based in the North East of England we provide a range of hospital and community health services from our leading facilities, including the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Blaydon urgent care centre and Bensham Hospital, all within Gateshead.
Established in 2005, we were one of the first foundation trusts in the country and since then have consistently achieved the highest levels of care for patients.
We now employ around 4,800 staff and currently provide 444 hospital beds across the Gateshead region.
Our values should be the ‘golden thread’ which runs through everything we do – they are the core of who we are. Our five values can easily be remembered by the simple acronym ICORE; Innovation, Care, Openness, Respect, Engagement.
