Description
Applications are invited for a 1-year locally employed doctor post within the department of Acute General Medicine (AGM) at the Horton Hospital. This post is an exciting opportunity for an energetic, forward-thinking trainee, who wishes to develop higher level clinical skills in AGM within an active district general hospital, taking full advantage of the links held with other Oxford teaching hospitals and university institutions. The post will be for 1 year in total depending on a 3month probationary period to ensure that the job and person are the correct fit. By 3 months, we would expect engagement in a training portfolio process with satisfactory work placed based assessments, as well as supportive feedback from placement supervision groups.
The post is aimed at senior medical doctors (those who have completed MRCP) and should appeal to those who not only wish to pursue a career AGM, but also Anaesthetics, Emergency Medicine or Intensive Care Medicine. This post is not recognized for postgraduate medical training but will allow competencies to be gained that may count towards eventual CESR accreditation or competency based CCT. Applications will be considered from less than full time trainees.
The successful applicant will have a job plan which will comprise of Acute General Medicine, Critical Care Medicine and Ambulatory Medicine.
The Horton is a District General Hospital in Banbury with an Emergency Dept., admitting a largely unselected medical take. It has a 10-bedded CCU that provides level 2 care to patients. This includes non-invasive ventilation, inotropic support and close nursing monitoring. The planned medical structure for the CCU will be a designated ward team looking after these patients under the supervision of rotating respiratory and acute medicine consultants.
The wards consist of 2 large medical wards (approx. 28-30 beds each) and an EAU (Emergency Assessment Unit) together with a co-located short stay ward. Each ward has a team, typically consisting of a Consultant, SpR, SHO and house officer and the team is responsible for all of the patients on that ward.
The Medical Take is unselected acute medical admissions; there are around 20-30/day. The consultant on-call is responsible for the full 24hr period encompassing 3 hot rounds during the day (late morning, late afternoon and evening) and a follow up round in the morning for the overnight admissions. There is a 9am handover to the wards and the next team.
Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest NHS teaching trusts in the country. It provides a wide range of general and specialist clinical services and is a base for medical education, training and research. The Trust comprises four hospitals - the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington and the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.
