General Medicine, FY 2
Sunderland, England, United Kingdom Temporary General Medicine South Tyneside And Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust
Total Shifts: 60
An opportunity is available for a Foundation Year 2 Doctor to join a busy general medicine team. This post offers broad experience in the assessment and management of adults with a wide range of acute and chronic medical conditions, working within a supportive multidisciplinary environment.
Under appropriate supervision, you will assess patients presenting to the medical wards and acute care services, formulate management plans, request and interpret investigations, and review clinical progress. You will contribute to ward rounds, admissions, referrals, discharge planning and follow-up arrangements. The role also includes completing clinical documentation, preparing discharge summaries, communicating effectively with patients and relatives, and handing over care safely at the end of each shift.
You will work closely with consultants, specialty trainees, nurses, pharmacists, allied health professionals and other members of the clinical team. You may be required to participate in the out-of-hours rota, responding promptly to deteriorating patients and seeking senior advice whenever necessary. Opportunities will be available to develop practical skills, clinical judgement and confidence in managing common medical presentations, while maintaining patient dignity, confidentiality and shared decision-making.
Applicants must hold full registration with the General Medical Council, including a licence to practise, and have successfully completed Foundation Year 1 or equivalent recognised training. Previous experience in general medicine is desirable, although applications are welcomed from doctors who can demonstrate a strong interest in acute and inpatient care. Evidence of satisfactory performance, effective communication and the ability to work reliably as part of a team is essential.
You should be organised, adaptable and committed to delivering safe, compassionate care. A willingness to learn, participate in teaching and engage with appraisal and continuing professional development is expected. You must demonstrate an understanding of clinical governance, infection prevention, safeguarding, equality and diversity, and the importance of raising concerns promptly. Successful candidates will receive an appropriate induction, regular supervision and access to educational support throughout the appointment.
