An opportunity has arisen for a Fixed term full time (10 PA) Consultant in Geriatric/General Medicine. Salary will be based on the NHS Employers Consultant pay scale £109,725 - £145,478.

We are seeking to appoint a dynamic Physician in Geriatric Medicine. Candidates who are dual trained in General Internal Medicine and Geriatric Medicine would be welcome to apply and sub-specialty sessions would be considered and accommodated where possible.

The job plan on appointment will consist of a split of 8:2 DCC/SPA. The SPA component is made up of core activities (appraisal, revalidation, CME, routine departmental meetings etc.) and non-core activities. The example in the job description outlines the Direct Clinical Care component (DCC) of the job plan. In addition, the candidate will be on the General medical on call rota (1:20 weekdays; 1:26 weekends and acute stroke / frailty weekend rota 1:11)

The successful candidate will join our friendly front door frailty team of geriatricians who cover frailty in the emergency department, frailty SDEC and virtual ward. The postholder will also rotate with the existing front door geriatricians into one of our geriatric wards and assist in developing our short stay geriatric unit. We also welcome an interest in surgical – geriatric liaison.

The job plan on appointment will consist of a split of 8.:2 DCC/SPA. The SPA component is made up of core activities (appraisal, revalidation, CME, routine departmental meetings etc.) and non-core activities. Non-core activities are discussed and agreed within the Trust (via an agreed tariff and, on occasion, through a personal agreement). Non-core SPA may reflect activities such as educational supervision, research, leadership and quality improvement. Following appointment, non-core SPA may be used to participate in our consultant development programme, or in acquiring or consolidating specific skills and expertise. Non-core SPA is only available if specific activities and objectives are mutually agreed in job planning.

There is a degree of flexibility within the job plan and this example is for illustrative purposes only. Where individuals have a speciality interest this can be considered and job planed if mutually beneficial.

This schedule outlines the Direct Clinical Care component (DCC) of the job plan. In addition the candidate will be on the General medial on call rota and MAU weekend rota. SPA activity and clinical admin can be delivered flexibly around the clinical shifts. SPA activity is outlined in the accompanying table and is delivered over the 5 week cycle rather than per week. It would be expected the successful candidate would organise their own timetable with regard to fitting this activity into the job plan. There would be flexibility to swap shifts to prevent longer periods of work inadvertently caused by the on call rotas.
