Crynodeb

This post is designed to support postgraduate medical trainees (at Core or ST level), who wish to make a commitment to education as part of their career. The 12-month fixed-term post, based at BHRUT, is aimed at those who wish to build on their personal teaching experience, develop expertise in educational theory and practice, and undertake supervised educational research.

The post holder will have a designated educational mentor who will oversee their development as an educator during the placement and co-ordinate opportunities for personal development. A customized programme of training and educational experience will be designed around the needs of the individual.

Although an enthusiasm for teaching is a prerequisite, no assumptions will be made about formal knowledge of educational theory or practice. Hands-on teaching will be central to the post, as will a critical engagement with educational issues around providing undergraduate and postgraduate training in a changing context, both nationally and locally.

Participants will be encouraged to develop a sustained commitment to education within their clinical career and to consider taking a postgraduate qualification in medical education. It is expected that the Fellow will attend Health Education England’s range of faculty development courses, contributing as an attendee, participant observer, teacher, or co-facilitator (depending on experience and expertise and constraints of each individual course).

The medical education fellow will support continuation andimprovement of medical education and training throughout the trust, both for undergraduates and postgraduates. The Fellow will have the opportunity to undertake 2 x clinical session 1 standard day to keep their clinical skills up to date. The fellow must be able to work in a team environment.

The fellow must have knowledge of the postgraduate and medical undergraduate training curricula. Must have full GMC registration, must also have completed the UK Foundation/Core Training Programmes.

The fellow must have good communication skills to deliver CBL teaching for undergraduates and postgraduate resident doctors.

We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.

Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.

We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.

Patients across northeast London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.

We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.

The post holder will have a regular schedule of teaching commitments and will actively contribute to the development and delivery of the Trust’s education programme for undergraduate medical students, Foundation trainees and Core Training junior doctors (levels FY1/FY2, IMT1-3 CT1-3 and IM Stage 2 Medicine – ST4+).
