We are looking for enthusiastic senior registrars to join our team of Registrars and Senior House Officers. Applicants will be in the later stages of critical care training, either preparing for or having passed a relevant critical care fellowship examination.The Senior Registrar role is aimed at CICM trainees in the later stages of training but is open to other experienced critical care registrars wanting to progress their skills. There are 5 Senior Registrar positions. The roster is a 5-week rolling pattern of shifts, incorporating planned leave relief. The Senior Registrar is rostered a mixture of shifts, on-calls and non-clinical time designed to balance development of consultant-level skills, service provision and development of special skills. Day time and on-call activities mirror those on the consultant roster, enabling the senior registrar to lead ward rounds, and manage the unit overnight when on-call from home with appropriate SMO supervision.Senior Registrars will be expected to lead the ward round during the day, and delegate tasks to registrars and SHOs as appropriate. Onsite SMO supervision between 0800-1800 is available at all times, with the intensity of that supervision tailored to the individual registrar. Those in their CICM transition year will be expected to work at the level of a junior consultant, with a degree of supervision and independence of practice that varies as their expertise develops. Clinical supervision will be provided by the Te Puna Wai Ora – Southern Critical Care consultant team. The proximity and nature of that supervision will change as the trainee develops, at a level deemed appropriate by the collective consultant body.Use of non-clinical time is designed to facilitate the development of special skills such as research, echocardiography, teaching/simulation, management, or other areas of interest by negotiation. Senior Registrars are also expected to contribute to registrar, SHO and nursing education where appropriate.Southern Critical Care is a mixed medical and surgical intensive care unit which provides exposure to trauma, neurosurgical, cardiothoracic, and some paediatric intensive care. The unit acts as a tertiary referral centre for the 400,000 people living in the lower South Island. We have a busy aeromedical retrieval team involved in both inter hospital and prehospital transport, predominantly by helicopter. The unit has recently been refurbished and a state of the art 22 bed-space unit is scheduled to open this year.Our Consultant and senior nursing staff are dedicated to providing high quality registrar education. We provide a five-day orientation programme covering both critical care and aeromedical retrieval. Registrars attend weekly seminar-based education and fortnightly simulation sessions. In-house echocardiography and ultrasound teaching is also available. We also offer a number of courses locally including BASIC, RACEplus and advanced critical care echocardiography courses, and 4i.Dunedin Hospital has a strong collaborative relationship with the University of Otago, making a number of teaching and research options possible for those keen to pursue their academic careers whilst completing their clinical work. Statistical support is available for those wishing to complete a project as part of training (eg. the ACEM 4.10 requirement).The unit is accredited for Foundation training in intensive care medicine by CICM, as well as for ACEM critical care and RACP basic training. The run also provides invaluable experience for surgical registrars particularly prior to application for RACS training schemes.Feedback On The Job From Recent Registrars"Excellent consultant supervision and bedside teaching""Really felt supported during my time in the unit and never any problems calling for help whatever the hour""Best teaching and commitment to teaching by a long way compared to other departments I have worked in""Echo teaching sessions have been invaluable, have already changed my practice"Mou ake | About youOur Ideal Candidate Will HaveRegistration with the Medical Council of New Zealand or be eligible for general or provisional general registration with the Medical Council of New Zealand.
