ANHS Fife welcomes applicants for the post of Senior Clinical Educator. This role is to support the development of the hubs and subsequent delivery of education within the ScotCOM program. ScotCOM is a new MBChB program being developed in conjunction with the University of St Andrews. This exciting new development will deliver a 5 year MBChB focusing on community based medicine. The development of ScotCOM with the University of St Andrews, our co-terminus university, is also allowing NHS Fife to progress Teaching Health Board status.
This role will initially be to develop the community components of the ScotCOM program. Once the program commences the post holder will support delivery of the learning that compliments the delivery of placements within the hub and spoke model. There will be two community hubs in the East and West of Fife. These posts will work alongside a team of clinical educators (SCEs) who will deliver a multidisciplinary approach to teaching and act as positive role models for the student cohort.
You will be from a Nursing, Midwifery or Allied Health Profession (NMAHP) background.
