Main duties of the job

The post is a standalone one-year post of 3 clinical rotations in internal medicine and is structured and administered as per the internal medicine stage 1 training programme to allow full or partial sign off via the alternate certificate to enter group 1 or group 2 specialty training. These posts are at junior clinical fellow level equivalent to IMT1-2. For this reason, applicants must have undertaken work in the NHS in medical specialties prior to application. This must be equivalent to completion of the Foundation Programme and ideally additional work in a medical specialty at 'FY3/junior clinical fellow' level post Foundation competency sign off where possible.

With successful engagement and local appraisal (equivalent to an ARCP) there will be an opportunity to extend to a second year of rotations with a view to obtaining alternative certificate sign off for internal medicine for entry to group 2 specialty training. At present an 'IMT3 equivalent year' cannot be guaranteed but may be possible depending on local availability of posts.

Doctors in this post will have access to the full programme of Internal Medicine Training teaching, including weekly teaching and skills and simulation teaching. You will be encouraged to maintain an equivalent portfolio which could be used to demonstrate experience equivalent to one year of the IMT programme, or consider a second year of rotations to obtain IMT1-2 equivalence via the alternative certificate.
