An opportunity is available for a Cardiology Medical Core Trainee/ST1&2 (formerly SHO) to join a busy and supportive clinical team. This post is suited to a doctor seeking to develop experience in cardiology while building on core medical training competencies within a structured, supervised environment.
You will assess and manage patients presenting with a broad range of acute and chronic cardiac conditions, including chest pain, heart failure, arrhythmias, hypertension and acute coronary syndromes. Duties will include taking comprehensive clinical histories, performing examinations, requesting and interpreting investigations, contributing to treatment plans and reviewing patients’ progress. You will work closely with consultants, registrars, nursing staff, allied health professionals and colleagues across other specialties.
The role will include participation in the medical and cardiology on-call rota, providing timely assessment and management of acutely unwell patients. You will be expected to recognise and respond to clinical deterioration, undertake appropriate escalation, assist with emergency procedures within your level of competence and ensure safe, effective handovers. Depending on service requirements and experience, there may be opportunities to gain exposure to coronary care, cardiology outpatients, cardiac investigations and procedural areas.
You will maintain accurate, contemporaneous clinical records and contribute to discharge planning, communication with general practitioners and multidisciplinary decision-making. Participation in ward rounds, case discussions, clinical audit, teaching and quality-improvement activity will be encouraged. You will also support the education of medical students and more junior colleagues where appropriate.
Applicants must hold full registration with the General Medical Council, with appropriate postgraduate experience in general medicine and an interest in cardiology. Evidence of competence in assessment, resuscitation, clinical decision-making and safe prescribing is required. The successful candidate will demonstrate excellent communication skills, professionalism, reliability and a commitment to inclusive, patient-centred care. The ability to work effectively under pressure and as part of a multidisciplinary team is essential.
