ITU Education and Simulation fellow

Fixed-term 1 year CT3 –ST6
Applications are invited for the post of Clinical Teaching Fellow in Medical Education & Simulation. This twelve-month post offers an exciting opportunity for a trainee to develop experience and skills as a Medical Educator.

Homerton University Hospital is a Foundation Trust and teaching hospital in East London. It is a trauma unit and was the designated hospital for the 2012 Olympic Games. It is within easy walking distance to Homerton Overground station, with easy access to major transport links.

Despite this very diverse and, in parts, deprived population, Homerton Hospital has been extremely favourably reviewed with regards to the standard of care it delivers. We are also extremely proud of the fact that Homerton Hospital has attained the highest possible rating of "Outstanding" from the Care Quality Commission (CQC). This includes an "Outstanding" rating for our Urgent and Emergency Services.

The education and simulation fellows provide an invaluable role for our unit, supporting medical students, medical and nursing staff and AHP’s with their career development through teaching and training. There are also many opportunities to get involved with education and training across the Trust, with a particular emphasis on simulation.

There may also be the possibility of undertaking a fully funded PG Cert via the apprenticeship scheme providing all eligibility criteria are met.

By the end of the post, the postholder will have completed the following learning objectives
1. Had the opportunity to take part in multiple forms of teaching
2. Completed the higher training for education in the RCoA syllabus
3. Had the opportunity to take part in and run in situ simulation
4. Developed skills and experience in medical education

Intensive Care at Homerton is a busy and friendly unit, providing critical care to our local population and geared to their specific needs. We work actively with other units across the ICS to provide a timely and comprehensive service for our patients.

The Simulation Suite was officially opened in 2011. It is equipped with hi-fidelity mannequins including a Laerdal Sim-Man, Sim-Junior, Sim-Baby and Sim-NewB. The suite also has laparoscopic, GI-Bronch and ultrasound simulators. The sim team is exploring the possibilities of technology enhanced learning including Virtual Reality. There is a busy calendar of postgraduate and undergraduate courses being run by a diverse multi-disciplinary faculty, including mobile simulation.

The anaesthetic department has recently been recognised as an exemplar of practice by being the first in the country to be re-accredited by the Royal College of Anaesthetists quality assurance (ACSA) programme https://www.rcoa.ac.uk/node/29121. In particular, the reviewers recommended that our in-situ simulation programme be entered into their “good practice library” for other departments to learn from and emulate.

Similarly, our extensive in-situ simulation programme has been recognised by the Royal College of Physicians in its recent report, “Never too busy to learn” as innovative and exemplary.

For full details of the post please refer to the job description and person specification attached to post.
