This is a Consultant in Frailty appointment anticipated to commence as soon as possible. This 10PA post with GIM on calls will be based flexibly across both St Helier Hospital and the place of Sutton, and will support the further development of integrated services for people with frailty. Expertise in any sub-speciality, which enhances the Trust’s reputation, would also be desirable.

We aim to treat acute illness appropriately, to enhance quality of life, to reduce disability, recognise when life is nearing its end, and to provide individualised person-centred care in the right setting at the right time. Expertise or a desire to develop sub specialty interest including Orthogeriatrics, Parkinson’s disease (working in conjunction with the Neurology team), dementia, falls, frailty, surgical liaison or elderly syncope (for which the Trust has a tilt table service) is particularly welcomed. We are proud of our integration with the General Medicine team, which benefits our patients who require more specialist advice or diagnostic input. The Orthogeriatric service at St Helier is highly regarded with excellent patient outcomes.

We are looking to recruit Consultants in Geriatric Medicine to join our already established team at St Helier, with a specialist interest in developing cross-system integrated frailty services. The work model is centred on the Sutton ‘place’ and will comprise a split in clinical time, delivering care both at the ‘front door’ and specialist short stay areas of the St Helier’s Hospital site as well as into the community setting working directly both with the Sutton Health and Care @Home service which provides rapid response MDT services and also with the wider proactive MDT services being developed through the four Primary Care Networks of Sutton.
