The postholder will work clinically (0.6 WTE) as aJunior Clinical Fellow in the Emergency Department at the Royal Derby Hospital. The post would be ideal for those who are:
· Considering a career in Emergency Medicine or Acute Specialties and looking for the support and training required to successfully apply for a training post.
· Undecided on a career pathway and looking to undertake an additional acute post prior to future applications.
From a clinical perspective these posts will participate in the 24-hour Emergency Department rota with flexibility to accommodate individual personal requirements. The post holder will be expected to prioritise and time-manage effectively according to the activity of the department and to utilise appropriately the available senior staff for advice.
For the NHSE Fellowship component (0.4 WTE), the post holder will have a specific mandate to work on two main project areas relating to understanding sexism in the workplace: 1) developing and introducing a standardised training package for medical staff to understand what constitutes sexism in the workplace and how to recognise it as a bystander; 2) developing and introducing a standardised reporting process for incidents at UHDB which are related to sexism in the workplace.
The Fellow will work at the interface between the senior Postgraduate Medical Education team, the clinical team in the Emergency Department and People services. They will collaborate with these key teams, and other relevant stakeholders, to develop a qualitative and quantitative understanding of potential sexism in the workplace at UHDB. Based on this evidence-based understanding locally, and up-to-date national knowledge in this field, the Fellows will thereafter develop and deliver a strategy at UHDB to minimise sexism in the workplace and thus optimise the clinical working and training environment for all. This should inform the measures that UHDB can take as an employer to provide an appropriately inclusive and supportive organisational culture for all, allowing for enhanced personal and professional development.
The Fellow will be supported by the Trust and NHS England (Midlands) to share learning from the projects undertaken at Trust, regional and national level, for example by posters, presentations and publications. The £5000 bursary for an academic qualification, or similar appropriate to the area, will assist with this and the further development of the Fellow.
