An exciting opportunity to make a significant contribution to quality improvement and anaesthesia care in Uganda or Ethiopia.

Lifebox Foundation in collaboration with the Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland, the Difficult Airway Society, World Anaesthesia Society and the Royal College of Anaesthetists are looking to recruit two exceptional ST6+ UK anaesthetic trainees to undertake Fellowships in Uganda and Ethiopia.

The Fellowships will commence in August 2015 or February 2016 and will be of 6–12 months duration. The Fellows will be supported to develop and deliver a sustainable and high-impact QI project in collaboration with local colleagues, in addition to taking part in delivery of anaesthetic care. Upon completion of the Fellowship, Fellows can expect to have completed the ‘Anaesthesia in developing countries’ and ‘Improvement Science, Safe and Reliable Systems’ units within the RCoA 2010 Curriculum.

Application deadline: Friday 5 December 2014.
