Locum ENT Consultant with Specialist interest in Rhinology/Sinus surgery
Applications are invited for the above post to join our ENT team. This is a New post. The appointee will join the existing 14 consultants. An on call commitment will be required.
We’re one of the largest and busiest teaching Trusts in England. Our three hospitals - the Glenfield, General and the Royal Infirmary – were joined together in 2000. We employ over 10,000 staff to treat a diverse population of nearly one million people across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, as well as a further two to three million people from neighbouring counties. We are fully committed to Continuing Medical Education for consultants.
High quality specialist care particularly in cancer, renal and cardiac services has gained us a national and international reputation. We are at the forefront of many research programmes and new surgical procedures, such as keyhole heart valve surgery and our research into diabetes, genetics and cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. We also play a vital role in teaching the next generation of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals, by working closely with local universities.
Principal Elements of the post will be:-
· To Supervise and train junior medical staff
· At LRI we have shared responsibility for beds on wards 9, Day ward, the Kinmonth Unit and paediatric wards
- At LGH we have shared responsibility for beds on Medical Day Case Unit
· Clinical sessions as laid out in the job plan
· Teaching, research and administration.
· Develop the service along with the other ENT Consultants at UHL.
· To take part in the adult & paediatric on call rota, 1:8 frequency.
Other Duties:-
The successful candidate will be required to undertake managerial duties associated with the care of their patients and the running of their Clinical Department.
As this post is regulated by the Protection of Children Act 1999, The Criminal Justice Courts Act 2000 and the Care Standards Act 2000 an enhanced police criminal records disclosure will be requested by the Trust in the event of a successful application.
Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).
We have four primary goals:
• high-quality care for all,
• being a great place to work,
• partnerships for impact, and
• research and education excellence
And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.
Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:
• we are compassionate,
• we are proud,
• we are inclusive, and
• we are one team
This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
