  Full time in the Sexual Health department of Homerton Healthcare NHS Trust, working across three clinical sites in Hackney. The Junior Clinical Fellow will work alongside other members of staff to deliver first class care to individuals presenting with STIs, HIV and other conditions and symptoms associated with sex, to make appropriate onward referrals and to review and manage abnormal results from clinic attendees (with support from senior members of staff as appropriate).

• About the company

  National Health Service (NHS) is the umbrella term for the publicly-funded healthcare systems of the United Kingdom (UK). The founding principles were that services should be comprehensive, universal and free at the point of delivery—a health service based on clinical need, not ability to pay. Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, free at the point of use for people ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom apart from dental treatment and optical care.
