Gastroenterology, FY 2
South Shields, England, United Kingdom Temporary Gastroenterology South Tyneside And Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust
Total Shifts: 60
An opportunity is available for a Foundation Year 2 doctor to join a supportive gastroenterology team. This post is suitable for a motivated doctor seeking to develop clinical experience in the assessment and management of patients with gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary conditions within an acute hospital setting.
Working under the supervision of senior clinicians, you will contribute to the day-to-day care of patients on gastroenterology wards and, where appropriate, the acute medical take. Duties will include clerking new admissions, undertaking clinical assessments, preparing management plans, requesting and interpreting investigations, completing documentation and communicating effectively with patients, relatives and the multidisciplinary team.
You will participate in ward rounds, handovers, departmental teaching, clinical meetings and the out-of-hours rota as required. The role may also provide opportunities to gain experience in endoscopy, nutrition, inflammatory bowel disease, liver disease and the management of gastrointestinal bleeding, subject to service needs and appropriate supervision. You will be expected to recognise deteriorating patients promptly, escalate concerns and seek senior advice when necessary.
Applicants must hold a primary medical qualification and have current registration with the General Medical Council, including the appropriate licence to practise. Experience in gastroenterology or acute medicine is desirable, although applications are welcomed from doctors who can demonstrate a strong interest in developing within the specialty. You should have sound clinical knowledge, effective communication skills and the ability to work safely as part of a busy multidisciplinary team.
We are looking for a dependable and compassionate doctor who is committed to high-quality patient care, professional development and reflective practice. You must be organised, adaptable and able to prioritise workload effectively while maintaining accurate records and respecting confidentiality. A willingness to contribute to teaching, audit, quality improvement and service development is also expected.
The post offers structured supervision, access to educational opportunities and the chance to build practical skills in gastroenterology within a collaborative clinical environment.
