We offer a comprehensive range of nephrology services for the population of the East Midlands Renal Network. These services include - acute and chronic haemodialysis, CAPD, home haemodialysis, outpatient nephrology and pre and post kidney transplant follow up. These are great opportunities for doctors fully trained in nephrology to be part of a committed and supportive senior medical team comprising 6 consultant Nephrologists and 5 transplant surgeons.

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.

The job plan will vary from month to month with in-patient care of both general Nephrology wards based at the Glenfield Site in rotation with other consultants. The job plan will be subject to annual review, with any revisions sought by mutual agreement but it is expected that the successful candidate will work with the clinical management team to ensure that services are delivered efficiently and reflect best practice with processes and governance to match - this may require new and flexible ways of working in the future.
