Summary
The successful candidate will work as part of a fully integrated multidisciplinary specialist team providing care to children and young people with health needs, across Barking & Dagenham. The successful applicant will also become part of a large (30+ community paediatricians), dynamic, community paediatric team, across the whole of North East London Foundation Trust. The successful candidate will provide senior medical support to the team, and direct input on clinical cases. The consultant will be expected to provide guidance and supervision to the team, work directly with babies, children, and young people (and their families), and liaise as appropriate with other external health providers, and acute hospitals. This post provides unique opportunity for the post holder to further develop links already established with the Tertiary and local acute trusts, in order to deliver specialist services within the community. There are existing close links with the acute paediatric department at King George Hospital (Ilford) and Queens Hospital (Romford) alongside Tertiary colleagues at the Royal London and Great Ormond Street Hospital. The postholder will spend one day / week (2PAs) with the Movement Disorder Service at GOSH (part of the Wolfson Neurodisability Service) joining a morning clinic and then participating in educational activities/ administration in the afternoon. We hope that through this, local networks can be strengthened and delivery of care enhanced.
