This post as Point Of Care ultrasound (POCUS) Fellow is unique opportunity to develop your skills and acquire experience and accreditation within POCUS.



You will be mentored and supervised by Dr Sarb Clare MBE- a national leader in POCUS and will have your own Butterfly IQ to achieve your logbook numbers and accreditation. You will achieve accreditation in FAMUS/FUSIC and RCR level 1 Thoracic US within the time of your appointment.

Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust (SWB) serves Birmingham and the Black Country - one of the country's most culturally diverse areas. It's a friendly and welcoming place - a place where you can belong, and a place where you can grow.



We care for our patients, we care about our population, and we care about our people.



Our values - Ambition, Respect and Compassion - are at the heart of who we are. They guide us every step of the way; how we work with each other, and how we look after our patients and their families; how we respect and value the rich diversity of our team and our community.



Our Trust has always aspired to be more than a hospital, more than a healthcare provider. Our purpose is to "Improve the Life Chances and Health Outcomes of our Population." It is what inspires, drives, and unites us every day. It's what makes us unique.



We want working at SWB to feel like more than just a job. We want our Trust to be a place where you can feel you belong. A place where you feel happy, safe, and rewarded. A place where you can develop your career in whatever way you choose. When we say we're 'with you all the way' we want you to know that we mean it. Visit the SWB website to find out more about our ambitions and people plans.
