​The provision of quality medical education is fundamental to BTUH Trust’s commitment to delivering improved patient safety, patient experience, and good clinical governance.   Multi-professional education is currently delivered via the Directorate of Education & Training by the Director of Medical Education, Foundation Programme Directors, Undergraduate Lead (Medical students), Specialty College Tutors and the Non-Medical Clinical Tutor (Non-medical Education). The quality of medical practice and the safety of patients are crucially dependent on the quality of the training provided to trainees and clinical teachers are the cornerstone of successful medical education.  Medical education is designed to ensure that quality and training is translated into tangible benefits for patients, staff and the organisation.

 

Specialities at Basildon include palliative care, oncology, dermatology, neurology, haematology and rheumatology. The relevant consultants all contribute to the local formal teaching programmes. The Essex Cardiothoracic Centre (CTC) is based on the Basildon Hospital site. 

 

The Hospital will be able to offer 4 academic posts from 2017-2018 with 1 in T & O and the other in A & E (further information will be added this year).
