Summary
The Royal Surrey Hospital is an exciting place to work. Traditionally a busy District General Hospital we provide a full range of acute specialties and a busy Accident and Emergency Department and Maternity Unit. We have also developed into the regional tertiary centre for complex major cancer surgery including gynaecological, head and neck, oesophago-gastric and hepatobiliary cancer and pancreatitis. The Intensive Care Unit supports all of this activity and currently consists of up to 10 level three and 12 level two bed spaces including four isolation rooms and three cubicles in an area partly brand new and purpose built. Over 1300 patients are admitted annually with around 50% coming from surgical specialties. The Intensive Care Unit (together with the anaesthetic department) has become well known for using Enhanced Recovery and Goal Directed Therapy for major surgical cases. This has been particularly effective for the hepatobiliary and oesophagogastric patients. The hospital attracts many tertiary referral cases relating to hepatobiliary, oesophagogastric and robotic urological surgery. In particular specialist expertise has been developed in the management of severe acute pancreatitis, small liver/ hepatic failure in both surgical and medical patients and perforated oesophagus. Our SMR is well below that of comparable units with a similar case mix nationally, we are proud of our excellent care. This Junior Clinical Fellow post would suit applicants wishing either an introduction to or further experience in critical care medicine whilst they are awaiting ST appointments or preparing for examinations. Applicants for this post will have the opportunity to work alongside CT and ST trainees from Anaesthetics and Medicine in a post recognised for Intensive Care training.

They will work on the ICU, with the Outreach Team and gain training with the Anaesthetic Team in theatres on a regular basis. They will also have the opportunity to take part in research and career development is supported and encouraged.
