A Vacancy at The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

We are delighted to be able to offer an opportunity for a highly motivated, ambitious individual to join our well integrated team.

This Adult NECTAR clinical fellow post (ST3+ equivalent) in transfer medicine is at Newcastle Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Note that this post requires 2 years prior postgraduate training in critical care/anaesthesia/medicine (including a minimum of 3 months post-foundation critical care experience) and candidates must already hold initial Anaesthesia Competencies.

This post is at registrar level, and successful candidates will be expected to have prior experience in intensive care and to be competent to work with indirect supervision.

This post is intended to provide experience in adult critical care, transport & retrieval medicine including training equivalent to that recommended by the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine.
