South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust
About
South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust (SWFT) provides the hospital services to South Warwickshire from four hospitals:
- Warwick Hospital
- Leamington Spa Hospital
- Stratford Hospital
- Ellen Badger Hospital
We also deliver out-of-hospital community services to the whole of Warwickshire and beyond serving a population of more than half a million from various clinics. This includes our Community Teams in North Warwickshire.
What is a Foundation Trust?
South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust was formed on 1 March 2010. A foundation trust status gives us greater freedom to manage our own affairs, and makes us more directly accountable to local people through our Members, who are drawn from the local population and staff.
We are managed by a Board of Directors and the Trust is overseen by our Council of Governors. Find out more about our organisational structure and meetings and papers.
We continue to be part of the NHS and treat patients in accordance with core NHS principles – healthcare that is provided according to clinical need, not ability to pay, that it is free at the point of delivery, and that it meets the needs of everyone.
Our Members actively influence the progress of the Trust and help us to be genuinely patient-centred in every aspect. Find out about becoming a Member.

South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust is one of the top performing organisations within the NHS. Our staff think this is a great place to work and we hope you will agree. We have recently been rated as 'Outstanding' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) following our most recent inspection.
We provide services across Warwickshire and beyond ranging from Hospitals in Warwick, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Royal Leamington Spa and Shipston-on Stour to Community Services across the whole county. This includes our Community Teams in North Warwickshire.
We are a progressive, expanding organisation with great ambition around improving quality, integrating pathways and delivering high levels of productivity. Over 6000 people work for the Trust and many of them have been here a long time. People find they don’t need to go elsewhere to find a fulfilling career in healthcare.
The first thing you will notice about us is how we take our values seriously. We believe that our values underpin everything we do. If you are interested in a role with us you need to make sure our values match your own.
Our values can be summed up in one sentence. We are ‘Trusted to provide inclusive, safe, effective and compassionate care’. Throughout the recruitment process you will be asked to think about how you demonstrate these values and how they impact on your work. It doesn’t matter what role you do, whether it is patient facing or not, we are all working in the same way with our values at the core.

This is reflected within our values of being Inclusive, Safe, Effective, Compassionate and Trusted.
Agile and Flexible Working
All our staff will have a work base. However the Trust operates as an Agile Working Team therefore staff may be working from home on a regular basis as required by the service. However, occasionally travel around Warwickshire and into your base will be required so access to your own transport would be helpful.
The Trust also welcome staff to work flexibly and we would welcome the conversation at interview regarding flexible working.

Job overview
The post is designed to support undergraduate and postgraduate teaching. Post holders will teach medical students in both the hospital and university settings, and will have the opportunity to deliver teaching and mentorship to doctors in training. As a result, our education fellows will be involved in teaching a broad range of topics across both universities and at postgraduate level, requiring high levels of flexibility and adaptability.
Medical student teaching varies daily, from bedside teaching for Phase I students through to revision for final year students. This teaching encompasses small group workshops, lectures and simulation based education amongst others. All teaching materials are provided however development of resources is ongoing throughout the academic year.
Advert
The nature of this post means that you will be working on site at Warwick Hospital every day. The exceptions would be occasional travel to Warwick Medical School and Buckingham Medical School, as well as to NHS Partnership Trusts.
Warwick Medical School and Buckingham Medical School have a range of postgraduate courses in medical education which are accessible on a modular basis, and can be used to obtain a qualification in medical education. In order to support the medical educational element of the post, the trust will make funding available to support modules to obtain a postgraduate certificate in medical education (pro-rata for less than full-time or employment periods of less than 12 months).

Detailed job description and main responsibilities
The post holder will work with the UME Lead and Lecturer Midwives to deliver the curriculum to junior and senior students from both medical schools.
Although this is a specialty role there may be occasions where you will support more general teaching, for example Phase I bedside teaching which focusses more on communication skills and basic examination techniques than specialty knowledge, or to be part of the faculty in a simulation session focussing on leadership skills. Training for this forms part of CEF induction.
The post holder may be expected to provide clinical support to the O&G department at Warwick Hospital around any teaching commitments, in particular during periods of student absence in the organisation (eg Christmas holidays).
There are no on call commitments with this post.
