A Vacancy at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

The Department of Medicine for Older People wishes to appoint a Consultant Geriatrician with Specialist Interest in Re-ablement Medicine, based at Broadgreen Hospital.

The Department of Medicine for Older People and Stroke (DMOPS) is a well-established department with a dynamic group of Geriatricians who deliver specialised services for older people and continually develop newer evidence based models of care delivery.

There are multiple Geriatric Medicine wards at all 3 of our sites, delivering specialist care for older people, with the Broadgreen site being ideal to focus on complex patients who require longer periods of re-ablement, optimisation of medical complexity and supporting advanced discharge planning needs.

The post holder will have sessional work on the general geriatric wards and re-ablement wards where they will work alongside the Geriatrics consultants to deliver comprehensive geriatric assessment to patients requiring in-patient care. These sessions will involve responsibility for leading MDT based CGA care on this ward.

The inpatient wards comprise 23 beds with on average 2-4 new admissions each day.

The post will be supported by trainees/junior doctors and Advanced Nurse Practitioners at the Broadgreen and Royal sites predominately. There will also be STR support on a sessional basis.

The post will provide medical support to two 23 bedded reablement wards with support from specialist MDT with ACP support. This will be in partnership with a well established Specialty grade Doctor with years of reablement support. This area has been developed with the support of ECIST and has been recognised as a national example of good practice. This operates a proactive pull with therapy and nursing providing the primary care and consultant support.
