You will join the Specialty and Integrated Medicine Clinical Service Unit (CSU) which covers General Internal Medicine, Elderly Medicine, Diabetes & Endocrinology, and Infectious Diseases & Travel Medicine. Most of our departments are based at St Jamess University Hospital (SJUH), but we also provide a Surgical Liaison service to three Orthopaedic wards (L09, L34 and L35) at Leeds General Infirmary (LGI, where this post will be based). The department is hard-working, friendly and co-operative. There is a strong focus on continual improvement, multi-disciplinary teamwork, clinical excellence, and patient safety and quality. Excellent training will be provided in the management of acutely unwell and deteriorating patients, Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment, rehabilitation, and complex discharge planning. Opportunities will be provided to join our audit, quality improvement, and clinical governance programme. There are excellent training facilities at both LGI and SJUH. Across the CSU, educational meetings are held on most days of the week.
