Summary:

As post holder of this role you will be working as the Subject Lead for Respiratory, developing and delivering the curriculum, from the anatomy, pathophysiology and clinical skills to the design of suitable clinical placements across the Cumbria region.

  • Develop formative and summative assessments based on the learning materials generated that are aligned to, and reflective of, the questions students will encounter in the relevant aspects of Medical Licencing Assessment.
  • Work collaboratively with module leads and other subject leads to ensure that students are prepared for placements, and to ensure that the student learning experience is equitable across different clinical sites.
  • Once the programme is underway, continuously monitor, evaluate and improve the quality of content and delivery.
  • Where placements are provided at more than one site, work with local education providers to ensure activity is well calibrated to provide as uniform an experience as possible.
  • Contribute as requested to the wider delivery of medical school activities, for example through participation in admissions, tutoring, and assessment and feedback.
  • Actively participate in PCSM committees and fora, as required.
  • Review and respond promptly to feedback from all sources, such as student surveys, staff-student committees and external examiners
  • Work as a practising clinician, embedded in the relevant clinical service within the trust

 

Requirements of the Consultant:
