The tertiary centres house national services for ACHD and Advanced Heart Failure Unit as a Transplant site catering the whole of Scotland. This provides national access locally for provision in training for Advanced Heart Failure and ACHD. GJNH is one of the busiest sites for PCI activity in the UK and provides full range of complex PCI training for suitable candidates.
The region has access to full range from basic to advanced Electrophysiology and Devices training. The region is rich in Cardiac MRI research so excellent training opportunities are available for CMR, Cardiac CT and Echocardiography training as well.
ST4 year will be spent with a mix of Cardiology and GIM, inline with the new curriculum requirements, this may be a split of 6 months in a DGH with more focus on GIM and 6 months in city with focus on Cardiology.
ST5 will be delivered as modular training to achieve core competencies in Cardiology with intensive focus on Echo training to achieve curriculum requirements. ST6-8 will be based on trainee requirement for sub specialist training and gets delivered between city hospitals and tertiary centre.
The region offers great opportunity for research, access to regular training days in the region and national days via Scottish Cardiac Society. The region welcomes LTFT and offers fellowship opportunities in Heart Failure, Complex Devices and Coronary Intervention.
Research, audit, teaching and management opportunities
The region has a long track for high impact research in Heart Failure via University of Glasgow. The region is also very rich in Coronary Intervention research and should provide excellent opportunities for a higher degree. OOPR applications are supported and welcomed.

About the Scotland Deanery
The Scotland Deanery’s primary responsibility is the education and training of doctors in Scotland.
We are also responsible for the appraisal and re-validation of all doctors in Scotland as well as a number of cross cutting and multi-professional programmes, including patient safety, quality improvement of patient care and the development of Scotland’s remote and rural workforce.
Most of our focus is on the training of Scotland’s 6000 postgraduate trainee doctors who deliver care every day while in hospitals and general practices within NHS Scotland. We oversee this training, making sure it meets the regulatory standards of the GMC and that trainees make the right progress.
Through distribution of Additional Cost of Teaching (ACT) funding, we support the undergraduate medical education and training delivered by Scotland’s 5 medical schools: making sure significant resources are used properly to underpin the clinical teaching of medical students in hospitals and general practices.
The continuing development of doctors is another key task and we support many educational and training initiatives for fully trained Consultants, General Practitioners and Associate Specialists.
Alongside this we lead on multiprofessional training schemes for pharmacists, general practice nurses and general practice managers, whilst having a pivotal role in relevant research through our involvement in the Scottish Medical Education Research Consortium.
Our overarching aim is to deliver first-class medical education and training for Scotland to ensure safe, effective care for patients, both now and in the future.
