Job description

Consultant in Respiratory Medicine | Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust

Company:

Company: Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust

The respiratory department operates a phased working job pattern. The appointee will be on ward duty (Respiratory Ward) for 1 week (7 days) at a time on a 1:5 rota. The respiratory consultants contribute equally to a 1:11 rota for respiratory in-reach to the AAU at HRI. 1 PA is allocated for respiratory inreach duties for week days. The workload for this will be variable as per respiratory admissions to the AAU; winter months see a higher number. Respiratory Consultants are helped by a SpR as well and work can be distributed as per requirements. There will be consideration of time off in lieu (such as for weekend working). Six new patients per clinic will be booked as standard. At the start of the post we do not anticipate follow up patients to be booked in to clinic. In due course when follow-up slots are required 1 new patient slot will equate to 2 follow up patients.

The new appointee will be allocated a consultant colleague to mentor and support them when they start.

The candidate will be supporting both the Asthma and Sleep/ NIV service. The successful candidate will also be expected to develop the CPET/Breathlessness Service
