Job description

You would join the Paediatricians with Expertise in Cardiology in clinic and in providing cardiology advice for inpatients with the expectation that over the course of the year you would become more independent in echocardiography skills.
- The remainder of the post (including a full out of hours commitment) is dedicated to the in and out of hours acute cover of the general and neonatal resident doctor rota.

- Prepare and contribute to Paediatric MDT meetings and journal clubs.
- Manage paediatric and neonatal emergencies as part of the paediatric/neonatal resuscitation team.
- Contribute to the postgraduate and undergraduate teaching programme
We are excited to offer the opportunity for a cardiology fellowship within the department of paediatrics at West Middlesex Hospital. We are an expanding team of consultants with a range of interests to support your clinical and non-clinical development. As a cardiology fellow you would be providing clinical work as a senior clinical fellow on the full shift tier 2 rota. One day a week would be dedicated to cardiology. We would support you to develop your cardiology skills including echocardiography. You would work closely with the two Paediatricians with Expertise in Cardiology who both hold the EACVI Echo CHD Certification and can therefore act as local assessors for your own DOPS assessments for the certification.
