Summary
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 a well-integrated team. The post will be suitable for trainees who intend to further develop their paediatric, clinical, neonatal transport and R&D skills, and/or pursue a career as a specialist in Neonatal Medicine. The post is available from February 2025 for 24 months.
Successful applicants will be involved in clinical care of a wide variety of infants as part of a tertiary surgical neonatal unit covering the North East of England as well as delivering Acute neonatal Transport by working as part of the Northern Neonatal Transport Service. Our unit provides neonatal care to approximately 6000 deliveries per annum and around 3000 intensive care days as well as housing the fetal medicine service for the region. We are also the regional neonatal surgical unit. After a period of integrating into the team as part of the NICU registrar team, the appointee will be responsible for providing middle grade clinical cover for the Northern Neonatal transport service and delivering acute neonatal uplift within the northern neonatal network. For trainees with little prior experience in neonatal transport, an induction programme will be organised to allow gradually exposure to more independent transport.
Please read attached Job Description and Person Specification.
The wide range of exposure to neonatal medical and surgical conditions, together with the size of the service and the high level of educational input, provides an excellent environment for education and training for SHO’s, SpR’s and those at HST level.
