Apply

Clinical duties will involve senior leadership in the supervision and provision of the management and care of all acutely ill and injured patients. There is the expectation that duties will be shared with the current consultants and each consultant will share part of the workload across all sites. The nature of the post necessitates that Category II work may be undertaken, the arrangements for which will be agreed with the successful applicant on appointment.

Currently the department operates a system whereby all new patients attending on a particular day are nominally assigned to the consultant on-call for the day. Consultants are expected to undertake all immediate and subsequent administration relevant to the care of patients assigned in this way. The consultant will have responsibility for professional supervision and management of junior medical staff whilst on-call for the day.

In the spirit of continuing professional development this post can support a special interest that fits in with directorate and Trust objectives.
