There will be plenty of opportunity in research and quality improvement projects if so wished.
Our department is a sociable, friendly and supportive team.
Job plans within the anaesthetic department are flexible. With this 10 PA position, there is 2 PA allocation for SPA, during which there is an expectation for the successful candidate to support appraisal, revalidation and completion of mandatory training. It is anticipated that this job plan will include cover for vascular, endovascular, orthopaedic and urology lists however the job plan can be honed to reflect individual skills, knowledge and experience.
Kent and Canterbury Anaesthetic Consultants contribute to a 1:12 non-resident on call rota, supporting the resident registrar grade anaesthetist, covering CEPOD and the specialist ITU.
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with three acute hospitals and community sites serving a local population of around 700,000. We also provide specialist services for Kent and Medway.
We’re on an exciting journey of transformation. With a new Medical School at the centre of our community, a focus on research, clinical leadership and making our trust a rewarding and friendly place to work, there’s never been a better time to join us.
We offer 32-34 days’ annual leave (dependant on experience at the grade) and active support for study, quality improvement and patient safety work as part of our ‘We care’ improvement journey, and medical education and research.
The post holder will be involved in the education of junior doctors, medical students and other clinical staff within theatres. William Harvey welcomes a cohort of novice anaesthetists each year, requiring expert guidance and tuition. Other educational roles will be supported and educational qualifications are desirable. There will be an opportunity to join the Simulation faculty team offering courses across the trust and the Prompt training team, supporting multidisciplinary training in Obstetrics. There is also a potential opportunity to become involved in the surgical preassessment service, chronic pain service and other multidisciplinary meetings for a variety of surgical specialties.
