The successful candidate will help provide and develop the Cardiac Device Service and multidisciplinary Heart Failure Service to the local Fylde Coast and regional population of Lancashire and South Cumbria. This is a new post to join a team of 4 device Consultants (and 1 electrophysiologist that contributes to the device service). Approximately 800 device procedures, and 70 extraction procedures are performed annually. The post holder will have experience in implantation and follow up of pacemakers, resynchronisation devices, and ICDs. Experience, or a willingness to develop skills, in extraction, leadless pacing and subcutaneous defibrillators is necessary. The post holder will have experience in the delivery and direction of hospital and community based Heart Failure Management.
The cardiology department delivers a local Secondary and regional tertiary cardiology service, and the successful candidate will join the existing 22 consultant cardiologists in helping deliver a first class local and regional service. The post holder will also be expected to deliver general cardiology as consultant of the week on a rotational basis as well as weekend cover as part of a seven-day consultant led service.
Job plans will be formally reviewed within the first 6 months after appointment and agreed according to evidence from actual activity. All consultants will be allocated 1.5 core SPA per week for professional development (CPD), Job Planning, Appraisal, Mandatory Training, attendance at regular team meetings which will have a clinical governance aspect and participating in Audit. Core SPA time will generally be undertaken within the Trust. Any variation from this principle must be discussed, agreed and made clear within the Consultant Job plan. The core SPA time will allow the post holder to ensure appropriate CPD to allow revalidation, to which the trust will be fully supportive.
Additional SPA time will be made available to consultants on the basis of evidenced need. Such allocation will be agreed and subsequently reviewed by the Consultant and their Head of Department during the Job Plan review session. Additional (non- core) SPA time will be undertaken within the Trust or at other agreed NHS sites or academic institutions during the normal working day.
Indicative job plan will comprise Device lab sessions, Outpatient clinics, Ward Rounds, Heart Failure ACP supervision, Heart Failure Virtual Ward/MDT supervision, on-call duties, Consultant of the Week duties and Patient Administration
