A Vacancy at The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust.
An opportunity has arisen to appoint a Consultant Cardiologist with specialist interest in Cardiac Imaging to join our Cardiology team based at The Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Hospital Trust. You will be supported by a team of junior doctors (of training and non-training grades), specialist nurses, advanced practitioners, nurses, therapists, and in reaching specialists across the hospital.
The post involves working across both sites in Shropshire, providing general cardiology and specialist imaging services at Shrewsbury and Telford with an on-call commitment for Cardiology. There is an expectation of leadership of the echo service and the delivery of high quality modern cardiac imaging.
• Diagnosing and treating a wide spectrum of cardiological problems.
• Provide continued care both in the inpatient and outpatient setting
• Supporting a complex patient MDT
• The person appointed for echo will lead the echo service locally
• Other specialist interests e.g. CMR or CT will be catered for
• To provide high quality imaging services to the local community
• On call commitment at SATH (Cardiology 1:7 only, no GIM commitment)
• Supervision of Higher Specialty Trainees in Internal Medicine, IMT stage one trainees and Clinical fellows working towards CESR in GIM
• To have excellent team-working skills with the abilities and professional attitude to work well in a multi-professional team
• To deliver clinical and quality targets agreed both nationally and locally with clinical teams and commissioners.
• To follow patients throughout their clinical pathways
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 including 1 additional PA for the out of hours work. 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 and unpredictable emergency work.
· 2.5 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.
