A Vacancy at The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust.
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic Consultant Obstetrician with an interest in Maternal Medicine. You will join a team of 28 consultants working across the field of Obstetrics & Gynaecology in a busy District General Hospital. This post is an Obstetrics only role covering antenatal clinics, external cephalic version, elective caesarean section lists and resident on calls with no non-resident shifts. All acute services including the labour ward are based at the Princess Royal site with antenatal clinics also provided at both the Princess Royal Hospital and Royal Shrewsbury Hospital sites. Contribution to an out of hours on call rota is core to this role.
• Antenatal clinics including maternal medicine and multiple pregnancies
• External cephalic version
• Resident Obstetric shifts (acute work) (days and nights)
• No non-resident on-calls
• Elective caesarean section lists
• Lead Obstetric SPA role to be agreed with the Clinical Director dependent on skills and interests eg: MDT & PROMPT training, Labour Ward Lead etc
The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH) is the main provider of acute hospital services for around half a million people in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and mid Wales.
Encompassing some of the most picturesque parts of England and Wales, the Trust’s catchment stretches from the Cambrian Mountains in the west, to Newport and the fringes of the Black Country in the east. The main towns include: Bridgnorth, Ludlow, Market Drayton, Oswestry, Shrewsbury and Whitchurch (in Shropshire); Newport, Telford and Wellington (in Telford & Wrekin); and Newtown and Welshpool (in Powys) – all beautiful and unique.
Our main service locations are the Princess Royal Hospital (PRH) in Telford and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) in Shrewsbury which are located 20 minutes’ drive apart. Together they provide 99% of our activity. Both hospitals provide a wide range of acute hospital services including accident & emergency, outpatients, diagnostics, inpatient medical care and critical care.
A formal job plan will be agreed between the successful candidate and the Clinical Director on behalf of the Medical Director within 3 months of starting in post. A full-time job plan is based on a 10 PA working week. The job plan will be reviewed annually and is a prospective agreement that sets out the consultant's duties, responsibilities, and objectives for the coming year. It covers all aspects of a consultant’s professional practice including clinical work, teaching, research, education and managerial responsibilities. It will provide a clear schedule of commitments, both internal and external and will include personal objectives, detailing links to wider service improvements and trust strategic priorities.
For a full-time contract, the job plan will be divided on average per week (pro-rata for a part time post) as:
• 7.5 Programmed Activities (PAs) of Direct Clinical Care - includes clinical activity, clinically related activity and predictable emergency work.
• 1.5 Core Supporting Professional Activities (SPA) - includes CPD, audit, appraisal, guidelines, teaching and research.
• A 1 SPA (lead role) eg MDT training or Labour Ward lead etc – to be discussed and agreed with the Obstetric CD to suit the successful candidates’ strengths and interests and needs of the department.
The allocation of PAs is reviewed and may be subject to adjustment when a further diary exercise is undertaken or if the service demands a review of the team job plan.
Any applicant who is unable, for personal reasons, to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust in consultation with other consultant colleagues.
