Consultant in Anaesthesia with a Special Interest in Paediatric Anaesthesia
Provide a high quality, responsive Anaesthesia for elective procedures for paediatric patients two years and older and will include Maxillofacial, ENT, Orthopaedics, Urology and General Surgery Specialities at Barking Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust that assume responsibility for the patients within the catchment area in co-operation with consultant colleagues in Anaesthetics and other clinical departments.
This will include provision for paediatric and general anaesthesia.
Develop a team with a strong emphasis on delivering a cross-site service.
Post-holders will be required to work on each site
Under the leadership of our Chair Jacqui Smith and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, we provide care for the residents of three of the most diverse London boroughs. More than half of our 7,500 strong workforce are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups and most live in Barking and Dagenham, Havering and Redbridge. We also provide healthcare services to people in south west Essex, and specialist neurosciences services to the whole of the county.
Our services include all the major specialties of large acute hospitals, operating from two main sites - King George Hospital in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We also provide outpatient services at Brentwood Community Hospital, Barking Hospital, Loxford Polyclinic, and Harold Wood Polyclinic. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London.
As we recover from Covid-19, we’re proud to be leading the way nationally in reducing the time our patients wait to get the treatment they need. The pandemic provided the drive for our teams to innovate and change.
We know we have more work to do to improve waiting times for urgent and emergency care, and our performance against the four-hour emergency access standard remains challenged, in comparison to many other London trusts.
We are particularly proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre; Radiotherapy Centre; Hyper Acute Stroke Unit; and dedicated breast care service at King George Hospital. We’re also pleased to be part of the NEL Cancer Alliance.
The Trust seeks to appoint a Consultant Anaesthetist with an interest in Paediatric anaesthesia.
This is a whole-time position, and the new appointee will share the caseload, facilities, and trainee grade support with the existing consultants.
The successful candidate will be expected to provide paediatric and general anaesthesia.
He/she will be expected to introduce and apply new techniques as appropriate and to take a share of the general work of the department, including cover for consultant colleagues where practical.
The appointee will take his/her share of clinical responsibilities within the Department of anaesthesia. This will include provision for paediatric anaesthesia
