Medical Education and Simulation Clinical Fellow

The trainee will be expected to complete a postgraduate qualification in medical education. This will be fully funded as part of the post and is normally in the form of a postgraduate certificate (PGcert).

However, the successful applicant could undertake a diploma should a PGcert have already been achieved.

The aim of the position is to enable the Fellow, by the end of twelve months:

The fellow will work with 5th year Imperial medical students in intensive care medicine and will have the opportunity to be involved in bedside teaching, simulated training, small group teaching and other teaching format. The nature of the placements at Royal Brompton means the fellow will be able to capitalise on small group numbers to deliver learner-focused sessions, and the fellow will have the opportunity to shape the students learning experience.

In addition, the fellow will also work with the clinical skills and simulation coordinator, Royal Marsden simulation fellow and Harefield Hospital education fellow to provide simulation for IMT trainees. They will be supported to organise and co-facilitate a series of immersive simulation and simulated skills training days for IMT doctors from Royal Brompton, Marsden and Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

There will be additional opportunity to support in facilitating established consultant led simulated training programmes across specialties including respiratory, cardiology, anaesthetics and Imperial College school of Medicine.
