Senior Critical Care Fellow - Simulation & Education fellowship

1. Training in technology‑enhanced education

Links with the OxSTaR (Oxford Simulation Teaching and Research) Centre will enable candidates to develop technical, pedagogical and facilitation skills in technology‑enhanced education, including simulation and virtual reality. As a member of the OxSTaR faculty, you will be supervised and supported to become a confident, independent facilitator for various multi‑disciplinary and cross‑speciality educational activities.

Successful candidates will be encouraged to complete a formal educational qualification during the fellowship. The exact course is open to dialogue with your supervisor but should reflect the chosen focus of the fellowship year.

The successful candidate will act as an embedded dedicated trainer to aid delivery of various existing critical care projects. A non‑exhaustive list of these would be:

• In‑situ MDT patient safety simulation programme
• Doctor induction simulation
• Transfer training
• ALERT course
• MDT airway training and tracheostomy training
• OXSTAR‑based ICU MDT simulation training
• Cross‑specialty mobile in‑situ simulation exercises

The successful candidate should expect involvement in the management of training programmes, including course management, with the aim that after completion, they would have demonstrated some of the necessary skills to progress through the ICM training pathway.
