This job is now closed

Job summary

We are advertising physician-specific CESR (Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration) rotations based at University Hospitals of North Midlands to join our established CESR cohort. The post is intended to provide the clinician with the support and training required to successfully complete all aspects of the CESR process. You will be seconded to three month placements in Anaesthesia, ITU, Acute Medicine and Paediatric Emergency Medicine.

Our department is renowned for its training and support. The Consultant body has current FRCEM examiners as well as experience at the CESR application process and an RCEM CESR evaluator. There will be a specifically-designed training and teaching package for all successful applicants and a designated Consultant Educational supervisor.

The ED has 24/7 registrar grade clinical cover & extended Consultant cover from 8am until midnight 7 days a week, and a resident Trauma Team Leader rota. Post holders in this grade will participate in the registrar grade rota. Duties within the Emergency Departments will cover the whole range of clinical responsibility for those patients seen in the Emergency Department.

Although the successful applicant may not initially have the competencies to manage the ED overnight, it is expected that during the post they will develop to take on this role.

Main duties of the job

Clinical duties will include taking a lead role in the management of acutely ill or trauma patients. The qualities of leadership required as head of a team are stressed and it is anticipated that these qualities will be gradually learned through the process of supervision of more junior doctors and involvement in their education - both formal and informal. There is opportunity to take part in trust run leadership courses over the 5 years.

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.

We encourage the post holder to complete work based placed assessments to allow documentation of their own development and to meet the CESR requirements. Performance will be assessed by your educational supervisor, the educational faculty and by CESR annual review in line with the requirements of the 2021 RCEM curriculum. We are also able to support candidates further along in their CESR pathway and those who may remain on the 2015 curriculum and pride ourselves on a tailored approach to each individual.

Education is an important part of the role. The post holder will be fully involved in supporting the training of all levels of staff: medical; nursing; para-medical. Among groups who regularly attend the Departments are Student Nurses, Ambulance Paramedics, Pharmacy students and student radiographers.
