For further information please see the attached job description and person spec document, or contact Dr Hilary White, IR lead Hilary.White@SomersetFT.nhs.uk or Dr Paul Carruthers, Clinical Service Lead via email Paul.Carruthers@SomersetFT.nhs.ukor 01823 342306. Somerset's demographic profile is notably older than the national average, with 24% of residents aged over 65, compared to the England and Wales average of 19%.This aging population influences the trust's healthcare services, necessitating a focus on age-related health issues. The trust provides services across a very large, predominantly rural area. Below is our IR GIRFT review of notable good practice: Taunton is a busy, high volume IR centre, particularly for vascular IR. This is impressive given the size of the department. Vascular IR service includes infra-renal EVAR and its complications, with good data from the site on the National Vascular Registry (NVR). Team ethos and dynamics at both sites: evidence of great team working within and between the consultant, nursing, sonography and radiography teams. Radiology trainees consistently rate the trust highly and gave positive feedback at the visit. Excellent multi-disciplinary and innovative team working at the Yeovil site with a busy 9-5 Mon-Fri non-vascular IR (NVIR) service delivered by radiologists and advanced practice sonographers. There are several examples of innovative/advanced practice at this site, especially given the size of the department and hospital, including consultant sonographer-led NVIR services, outpatient and domiciliary paracentesis service for palliative care patients, Botox injections for thoracic outlet syndrome and shoulder capsular distension procedures. Highly positive feedback from referring teams (especially the urology and vascular surgery teams at Taunton, and the respiratory and oncology teams at Yeovil). Good anaesthetic support at Taunton despite being ad-hoc (currently no planned GA lists). Trauma protocol in place at Taunton for paediatric trauma care, including IR. Vascular hybrid theatre under construction at Taunton, opening early 2026. Sonographer-led training of multi-disciplinary teams within the respiratory, intensive care, oncology/palliative care, emergency department and upper GI services to learn aspects of paracentesis and thoracocentesis is innovative and impactful for service delivery and the patient experience across the trust.
