Job summary

Are you ready to take the most rewarding year out of training you'll ever experience? Bangor ED's Clinical Fellow MedEd programme is widely regarded as the original -- and still the best -- option for clinicians seeking high-quality rural EM experience, exceptional development time, and unparalleled exposure to pre-hospital and remote medicine.

These posts provide the full experience of rural Emergency Medicine with a remarkable bonus:

Whether you join straight after ACCS, or after gaining additional experience (with EM ST4/5 being an excellent time to come), you'll benefit from:

• A generous study budget up to £5,000 for relevant
• A flexible annualised rota, with less-than-full-time options
• 44 days of development time + 22 days of SPA over 12 months (pro rata LTFT)
• A recommended 80% full-time "sweet spot" for balancing income, experience, and rota flexibility

You'll join the Emergency Department at Ysbyty Gwynedd in beautiful North West Wales. Our fellows become fully integrated members of the team and work closely alongside EM trainees, contributing to:

• Teaching
• Audit and QI
• Service development
• Research (support available for CV-building and new researchers)

You'll find a highly supportive environment with supervisors who are genuinely invested in your success.

Main duties of the job

For Fellows opting for a full-time job plan 50% of the time dedicated to Medical Educational and 50% in ED. We expect every Fellow to get involved with departmental projects (e.g. protocol development, teaching, and audit). We are highly skilled at helping Fellows get their first publications and many of our Fellows gain their first conference posters whilst in Bangor.

In the role you will be expected to help support and organise resident doctor teaching (SHO and MG level), develop and deliver Simulations for the ED team, and have an active role in ED journal club. The role includes a funded PG Cert in Medical Education at an institute of your choice. We also have close links to the North Wales Medical School based in Bangor and Wrexham, with opportunity to deliver some skills and sim. The role has flexibility to allow you to develop your educational capabilities, and previous education fellows have used their med ed time for activities such as ultrasound skills teaching, supporting applicants to medical school, teaching on life support courses and ACCS training days, organising study days etc. You'll need to discuss these plans with your educational supervisor.

These are the current applicable pay scales; however, these may change upon implementation of the framework agreement for reform to the terms and conditions of service for resident doctors and dentists in Wales. Further details can be found at BMA+-+Framework+Agreement+Wales.
