Total Shifts: 84
We are seeking an enthusiastic and committed Acute Medicine FY2 doctor to join a busy medical team. This post offers excellent experience in the assessment and management of acutely unwell adults, with opportunities to develop clinical skills across the acute medical pathway.
You will assess patients presenting with a wide range of undifferentiated medical conditions, undertake clinical examinations, request and interpret appropriate investigations, and develop initial management plans under the guidance of senior clinicians. Responsibilities will include reviewing patients on the acute medical unit, contributing to post-take ward rounds, preparing clear clinical documentation, communicating effectively with patients and relatives, and supporting safe and timely discharge planning.
You will work closely with nurses, advanced clinical practitioners, therapists, pharmacists and other members of the multidisciplinary team. The role includes participation in the out-of-hours rota, with appropriate senior support available at all times. You will be expected to recognise and escalate clinical deterioration promptly, respond appropriately to emergencies, and contribute to handovers that promote continuity and patient safety.
Applicants must hold full registration with the General Medical Council, including a licence to practise, and have completed the required foundation training or equivalent experience. Previous experience in acute or general medicine is desirable, as is confidence in assessing acutely ill patients and performing common practical procedures. You should demonstrate sound clinical judgement, a professional approach, effective communication skills and a commitment to compassionate, inclusive care.
Regular supervision, teaching and learning opportunities will be provided, with support to meet educational objectives and maintain a portfolio of evidence. You will be expected to participate in clinical governance, audit, quality improvement and mandatory training, while adhering to professional standards, local policies, infection prevention procedures and safeguarding responsibilities.
This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated FY2 doctor to broaden their experience in acute medicine within a supportive and collaborative clinical environment.
