A Vacancy at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.
This service provides a dedicated paediatric intensive care stabilisation and transport service for critically sick or injured children in the North West (England) and North Wales Region. It works closely with the region’s two paediatric intensive care units, Alder Hey Children’s Hospital and Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital. The team are looking to strengthen links with the PIC team at Royal Stoke University Hospital in line with already established links for Surgical (including neonates), Neurosurgical and Neurology patients to the Lead Centres in the North West.
The service has been established to support and provide high quality care for critically sick or injured children and their families from the first point of contact with secondary care and during their transportation to an appropriate PICU. NWTS provides a single point of contact for referring hospitals with Consultant-led specialist advice on stabilisation, transport, and triaging facilities for all referrals at all timeThe service receives approximately 1,400 referrals and undertakes between 600 - 700 transfers annually from the 29 District General Hospitals in the region into the two tertiary hospitals within the North West. NWTS works closely with both the referring hospitals and the two providers of paediatric intensive care in the region, and is part of the Paediatric Critical Care, Children’s Major Trauma and Congenital Cardiac Networks in region. NWTS is hosted by Manchester Foundation Trust (MFT).
MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES
Duties will be providing direct clinical care, Consultant advice and support for the NWTS transport service. Approximately 45% of referrals to NWTS are for advice on patient management only. Patients are followed up for a minimum of 24 hours following referral to track whether they have improved or deteriorated and need escalation of care. The successful candidate will join the team providing 24-hour consultant cover for NWTS.
MFT is England’s largest NHS Trust with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.
Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.
We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our brand-new Electronic Patient Record system which we’ve launched in September 2022.
We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our new Green Plan which will set out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.
To find out more about the key responsibilities and the specific skills and experience you’ll need, take a look at the Job Description & Person Specification attachments under the ‘Supporting Documents’ heading. So that you’re even more equipped to make an informed decision to apply to us, you’ll need to take time to read the ‘Candidate Essentials Guide’that sits with the Job Description and Person Specification. This document provides you with details about the Trust, our benefits and outlines how ‘we care for you as you care for others’. Most importantly, it also contains critical information you’ll need to be aware of before you submit an application form.

Whilst COVID-19 vaccination is not currently a condition of employment, we do encourage our staff to get vaccinated. If you are unvaccinated, there is helpful advice and information available by searching on the ‘NHS England’ website where you can also find out more about how to access the vaccination.

As an inclusive employer, we are here to support you. If you have any special requirements to help you with your application, email our team atresourcing@mft.nhs.uk.
