An opportunity is available for an enthusiastic and compassionate Foundation Year 1 doctor to join an Acute Medicine team. This post offers broad experience in the assessment and management of adults presenting with undifferentiated medical illness, supported by senior clinicians and an established multidisciplinary team.
Working as part of the acute medical service, you will assess patients in the acute medical unit and other clinical areas, undertake histories and examinations, request and interpret appropriate investigations, and formulate initial management plans. You will contribute to ward-based care, attend consultant-led ward rounds, review patients’ progress, and recognise and escalate clinical deterioration promptly.
Your responsibilities will include maintaining accurate clinical records, completing discharge summaries, communicating effectively with patients and relatives, and liaising with nursing, pharmacy, therapy and community teams to support safe discharge planning. You may also undertake supervised practical procedures appropriate to your level of training and participate in the out-of-hours and on-call rota.
The successful candidate will hold a medical degree and the appropriate GMC registration for Foundation Year 1 practice, or be eligible to obtain this before commencing employment. You should demonstrate sound clinical knowledge, a professional and conscientious approach, and the ability to prioritise work effectively in a busy environment. Excellent communication skills, teamworking and a commitment to patient-centred care are essential.
You will receive regular supervision, opportunities for teaching and feedback, and support with your Foundation training requirements and professional development. Applications are welcomed from candidates who can demonstrate reliability, resilience and a willingness to learn. Please ensure your application clearly outlines your clinical experience, relevant skills and suitability for acute medicine.
