A Vacancy at The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust.
The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust is looking for a Consultant Radiologist for a busy and expanding Department, predominantly based at The Princess Royal Hospital (PRH), with responsibilities across both hospitals’ sites.
Due to a rapidly expanding workload most interests can be accommodated. One cancer MDT is an expectation; a second interest can likely be accommodated. Biopsy skills, CT or ultrasound would be welcomed. The posts will include sessions at the two main hospital sites within an overall flexible group job planning format, with an agreed overall sessional make up as described below.
Applications are welcome from candidates who wish to be considered for a part-time or flexible working arrangement. Contribution to an out of hours on call rota is core to this role.
• Share in the general imaging workload and collaborate with colleagues to support tumour-specific and other sub-specialty reporting, using PACS.
• Contribute to general work of the department, includingreporting of the general radiographic examinations carried out within the main sites, as well as in the various community hospital locations in Shropshire and the CDC.
• Maintain a general Radiology practice while contributing to sub-specialty areas, as per departmental needs.
• To work flexibly according to changes in work patterns and requirements. Participate in the general on-call rota. On call overnight is outsourced from 8.30pm to 8.30am and weekdays /weekends after 5.30pm to provide a more sustainable work pattern. On site attendance will occasionally be necessary during on call periods.
• General radiological sessions to include in and outpatient cross section as well as plain films and body ultrasound. General skills must be maintained for on call work.
• Addressing GP and clinician queries and vetting are core to the role.
• To be involved in the organisation and administration of the Radiology Department and teaching of other clinical staff including participation in regular clinico-radiological meetings with other Consultants.
• To be involved in the training of junior Radiology staff, as well as support the informal education of a wide range of multidisciplinary colleagues, including foundation doctors, advanced clinical practitioners, and rotating registrars from Stoke.
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 their Clinical Director and consultant colleagues, 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:
· 8 Programmed Activities (PAs) of Direct Clinical Care - includes clinical activity, clinically related activity and predictable and unpredictable emergency work.
· 2 Supporting Professional Activities (SPAs) - includes CPD, audit, teaching and research.
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.
