"The Trust seeks to appoint a Clinical Fellow in Critical Care. This is a 1 year fixed term post and applicants will be expected to have suitable experience within Critical Care.

You will be joining a dynamic and forward thinking team of doctors and the division of Anaesthesia at BHRUT provides anaesthetic, critical care and acute and chronic pain services for the local population. This takes the form of elective and emergency anaesthesia supporting the broad range of surgical specialties that the Trust provides; critical care services including a consultant lead critical care outreach team; acute pain ward rounds; and outpatient clinics for chronic pain, anaesthetic pre-assessment and critical care follow-up.

BHR is one of the largest Associate Teaching Hospitals, providing acute care for over 700,000 people from across 2 main sites – Queens and King George Hospitals, as well as peripheral sites at Barking, Dagenham and Brentwood. We are a major Neurosciences centre, and are undergoing significant further development as a tertiary referral centre for North East London and Essex, including additional critical care capacity.

We are also a major cancer centre, and are actively striving to enhance the range of our services.

The job advert will close early if sufficient applications are received.

Contribute to the provision of a high quality, responsive critical care service to Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust that assumes responsibility for the patients within the catchment area in co-operation with colleagues in anaesthetics and other clinical departments. This will involve caring for patients on the ITUs and

HDUs at Queen’s Hospital and/or King George Hospital, reviewing patients and initiating critical care treatment in Accident & Emergency, theatre recovery and ward areas, and undertaking transfer of patients (both intra- and inter-hospital).

Please see the attached job description and person specification.

We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with. We’re no longer in special measures; we’ve opened two new theatres at our Elective Surgical Hub in King George Hospital (KGH); and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, was named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal in 2024.

We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 330,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.

Our patients are benefitting from our Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub in Hornchurch.

These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week and are providing an extra 94,000 scans a year.

The majority of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.

We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record that will be transformative for our staff and beneficial for our patients.

Comply with the agreed job plan, which will be reviewed annually.

Participate in an emergency out of hours resident on-call cover for critical care medicine.

Contribute to postgraduate and continuing education for medical, nursing, technical staff, GP’s and other allied professions.

Deputise in the absence of departmental colleagues in cases of annual leave and (where practicable) short-term sickness.

Contribute (in co-operation with the Audit Committee) on a regular basis to the clinical audit process undertaken within the Trust, and where appropriate at a broader regional level.
