A Vacancy at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated senior trainee (ST4 or above or equivalent) with a special interest in another specialty to join St Mary’s hospital as a medical registrar.

The medical chief registrar will be attached to the Division of Medicine and Integrated Care (MIC), which operates Trust-wide, and the acute medicine team at St Mary’s Hospital – contributing to the medical take, care of medical inpatients and same day emergency care (SDEC).

The Medical registrar will spend 60% of their time in acute medicine and 40% of their time in another specialty which is most likely to be rheumatology. The duration of the post is 1 year initially, with the possibility of extending. This post is 60% clinical within the department of Acute Medicine at St Mary’s and 40% within another specialty, which is most likely to be rheumatology. The post holder will also be on the GIM on call rota, which includes a mixture of long days, weekends and nights. The post holder should be able to start the job as soon as possible.

We are absolutely committed to ensuring that our patients have the best possible experience within our hospitals. We are looking for people who are committed to delivering excellent patient care, whatever their role, and who take pride in what they do. We place a high value on treating all patients, customers and colleagues with respect and dignity, and seek people who strive for excellence and innovation in all that they do. We value all of our staff and aim to provide rewarding careers and benefits, fulfilling work environments and exciting opportunities.

• Kind - We are considerate and thoughtful, so you feel respected and included.
• Collaborative - We actively seek others’ views and ideas, so we achieve more together.
• Expert - We draw on our diverse skills, knowledge and experience, so we provide the best possible care.
• Aspirational - We are receptive and responsive to new thinking, so we never stop learning, discovering and improving.

The role is based at St Mary’s Hospital where candidates will look after acute medical inpatients and take part in the acute medical on-call rota. They will work with a team of resident doctors and wider multidisciplinary team, under the supervision of consultant physicians. There will be opportunities for additional experience/training in Same Day Emergency Care and/or specialty clinics (rheumatology). There is a weekly Acute Medicine Teaching Programme as well. There is also a monthly Local Faculty Group (LFG) meeting and weekly hospital Grand Rounds during academic term times.

The post holder will be expected to maintain a learning portfolio reflecting upon their progress through the year. The portfolio will inform regular tutorials with the consultant.

Hot-desk space and computer access is provided, with access to the Internet, PubMed and medical journals via Imperial College London library services. NB: No study leave funding is attached, but a bursary may be available to assist with postgraduate study.
