We are pleased to be able to advertise for one part time GPwSI in dermatology with an interest in skin cancer for one year in the first instance to join our experienced skin cancer team in Oxford. This is a new post. Located within the Thames Valley, Oxford’s skin cancer service is a recognised centre of excellence with one of the highest incidences of melanoma in the UK. We have state of the art surgical, diagnostic and laboratory facilities in a purpose built unit. We have excellent on-site links with plastic surgery and oncology with a centralised head and neck skin cancer service. With over 3,000 skin cancers treated in our university department each year, we are keen to recruit a colleague, who will relish the opportunity of working and teaching in this inspirational environment

Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trustis one of the largest NHS teaching trusts in the country. It provides a wide range of general and specialist clinical services and is a base for medical education, training and research. Find out more here www.ouh.nhs.uk

The Trust comprises four hospitals - the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington and the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.

Our values, standards and behaviours define the quality of clinical care we offer and the professional relationships we make with our patients, colleagues and the wider community. We call this Delivering Compassionate Excellence and its focus is on our values of compassion, respect, learning, delivery, improvement and excellence. These values put patients at the heart of what we do and underpin the quality healthcare we would like for ourselves or a member of our family. Watch how we set out to deliver compassionate excellence via the OUH YouTube channel

Junior medical support and training: The Dermatology service participates in the Oxford Training Rotation, which consists of specialist training posts shared between several hospitals (The Churchill & John Radcliffe Hospitals, Oxford, the Horton Hospital, Banbury and the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading). At any one time, we have at least 4-6 registrars based in Oxford, each of which spend approximately 24 months based in the department.

Out-patient clinics: The clinical work plan (see below) will typically involve sessions in out-patient clinic settings to support the skin cancer service. The Dermatology Service sees more than 48,000 patients including new referrals, follow up consultations and clinical procedures including laser and surgery. Clinics normally consist of lists staffed by a consultant with a clinical training or research registrar ± ST1-2. Nurse led clinics and surgical lists are well-established and consultant supervised. There is a well-established email advice service providing clinical advice by consultants with a 24-48 hour response time.

Ward rounds & in-patient cover: All in-patients are admitted under medical teams at the JR, Churchill, Horton sites and dermatology speciliast support is provided where needed.

There are no acute general medicine on-call duties, but the dermatology consultants take part in supervising the non-resident registrar on-call rota currently on a >1 in 10 basis. The Churchill Hospital has a resident general medical hospital-at-night ST1-2 rota shared between departments
