I have been assigned by an NHS Trust in London to help them recruit a Consultant in Anaesthetics on either a Substantive or an NHS Fixed Term basis for 12 months.
The appointee will join an existing team of 26 consultants and 19 Associate specialists, specialty doctors and clinical fellows as well as 12 doctors in training from Health Education England (HEE). The Anaesthetic and critical care department serves a modern and recently expanded theatre and day surgery complex with adjacent ITU and HDU facilities. The department has an excellent reputation and enthusiasm for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and would welcome applicants with a teaching interest. The Trust has Associate Teaching Hospital status within the University of Sheffield Medical School. Surgical specialties in the Trust include: general surgery (including laparoscopic colorectal surgery), orthopaedics and trauma, gynaecology, urology, ENT, maxillofacial, breast surgery, ophthalmology and obstetrics. We run a busy pre-operative assessment service including cardiopulmonary exercise testing. We specialise in day case surgery (led by recent BADS president) and regional anaesthesia. The critical care unit consists of 6 funded ITU beds and 8 funded HDU beds (although our bed base has increased temporarily with COVID in keeping with national changes). There are currently 9 consultants with a special interest in critical care medicine. We have also appointed an Associate Specialist in intensive care to support the expanding department. We have FICE echo accreditation.
The appointee will be asked to undertake various duties, these will include: participate in teaching and training of junior staff, medical students and other clinical staff groups. The appointee may also have supervision responsibilities for junior medical staff within the specialty if interested, provide a service in Anaesthesia and Critical Care, and play a full part in the out-of-hours On-Call service for the department. This includes being on-call for telephone advice and major incidents, provide cover for Consultant and Senior colleagues in respect of periods of leave & to take part in medical audit and research as appropriate.
