Summary

While undertaking clinical duties the fellow will be expected to work with the Department of ENT medical and nursing staff to manage the full range of patients attending the department. There is an expectation that the fellow will recognise the limitations of their practice and seek support from the middle grade and senior doctors to ensure safe patient management. The Clinical aspect of the post is based at the Royal United Hospital, Bath, and is suitable for candidates who will already have at least 4 months ENT experience, who would like to gain further clinical experience. The post will enable the trainee to build on experience and obtain appropriate competencies, but the post is not recognised by the Deanery for training. The Royal United Hospital has an excellent reputation for training in medical and surgical specialties, evidenced by the best results in the GMC training survey for an acute hospital. The department and the hospital provide a progressive and friendly atmosphere in which to work, and there is an active postgraduate teaching programme, in which you will be involved. With the reduction in training numbers nationally, we envisage that many able doctors will seek an alternative training route in active departments such as the RUH, and we have already demonstrated a long-term commitment to training and career progression of our Trust appointed doctors. The 7 substantive ENT Consultants and three SAS doctors all undertake a wide range of subspecialty surgery including head and neck, otology, rhinology and facial plastic surgery. The Teaching/Clinical Fellow will work as part of a clinical team led by a firm of consultants.
