## Job Content

### Job overview

West London Children's Healthcare is currently recruiting Senior Clinical Fellows in the field of Paediatric Emergency Medicine starting in March 2027 for 6 months (extendable) on a fixed term contract.

This post is suitable for a trainee looking to further develop acute and emergency paediatric skills from either a paediatric or emergency medicine background. The post is solely based in the Paediatric Emergency Department (PED) as part of a dedicated PED SpR rota whilst supporting a PED SHO rota. Senior supervision is delivered by 6 specialised Paediatric Emergency Consultants and a team of acute paediatric consultants who provide on-site, overnight cover in the PED. At the present time, the rota includes no night shifts.

### Main duties of the job

The department currently provides training to both Paediatric and Emergency Medicine trainees from the London Deanery. It is a recognised RCPCH PEM training centre, being one of only five departments in the region providing specialist PEM GRID registrar training. The post has the same access to educational opportunities as our RCPCH PEM Grid trainees - this includes time to obtain orthopaedic, surgical, burns and anaesthetic exposure in keeping with the RCPCH/RCEM PEM Curriculum.

The unit is supported by a large inpatient paediatric unit, with most paediatric subspecialties represented on site. As the regional paediatric surgery and paediatric burns centre as well as a centre for gastroenterology, plastic surgery, ENT, orthopaedic, neurology and endocrinology, there is complex case mix and scope to gain considerable experience.
