Crynodeb
This is a full-time 10 programmed activity paediatric intensive care post to be based at St George’s Hospital, however, with flexible working this may suit a candidate wishing to work LTFT. The post holder will assume clinical responsibility for all patients on the intensive care unit (PICU) and the satellite high dependency unit (PSDU) with other members of the intensive care team. The PICU is run as a closed unit but we operate a shared care system with the paediatric specialty or surgical specialty team responsible for ongoing management of their patients.
Applicants from related parent specialities such as paediatric anaesthesia will be welcomed.
The successful applicant(s) will take part in the dedicated PICU on-call rota (non-resident) on a 1 in 8 basis. They will also take a lead within PICU for some aspect of care (e.g echocardiography, recruitment and induction, audit and quality improvement etc.).
The paediatric department at St. George’s would welcome candidates with special interests outside intensive care. It would also encourage those who would like to develop a research interest that complements the rest of the department or develop the educational profile of the department.
South Thames has three paediatric intensive care units at St. Thomas’ (Evelina London Children’s Hospital), King’s College Hospital and St. George’s Hospital.
The Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at St George’s Hospital is a multidisciplinary unit that caters for infants, children and young people from a wide variety of disciplines including oncology, paediatric surgery, neurosurgery, spine deformity surgery, medical paediatrics, plastic surgery, and polytrauma. The case mix includes a broad spectrum of critically ill children with the exception of cardiac and renal transplant patients.
The PICU currently runs 7 PICU beds and 7 HDU beds, in busy periods this can increase to 10 PICU beds and 4 HDU beds and had over 600 admissions a year. Children are admitted from within the hospital and from regional hospitals via both the South Thames Retrieval Service and The Children’s Acute Transport Service.
St. George’s Hospital had been designated as a primary treatment centre for children’s cancer as a partner with the Royal Marsden Hospital and hence cares for many children who are recovering from major tumour surgery and serious complications of oncological disease. There is currently a cancer service reorganisation in progress in South The hospital has been designated as a paediatric and adult major trauma centre.
