Consultant Cardiologist
Found in: beBee S GB - 2 weeks ago
This substantive post is suitable for an individual with broad based cardiology training and specialist interests that will complement and enhance the existing services.
There are plans to expand the heart failure service so subspecialty expertise in this area would be welcome and with the building of the new Bolton College of Medical sciences underway, an interest in medical education would also be welcomed.
You will join six existing Consultant Cardiologists with interests in pacing and devices (2), advanced cardiac imaging (2) and cardiac failure (2) with recruitment plans in place for another full time substantive imaging consultant appointment (ie a total of 3 imaging consultants).
This will provide 8 consultants contributing to inpatient care and general on call services. In addition to those consultants providing an inpatient service, we have a full time consultant supporting the outpatient service and rapid access clinics and another part time consultant supporting general cardiology and device therapy.
Full secretarial support will be provided with office accommodation in the Cardiac Investigation Department equipped with computer and internet access.
Main duties of the job
It is expected that you would undertake the equivalent of one new and one follow up outpatient clinic per week covering a range of general cardiac conditions.
You will be responsible for the care of patients admitted to the CCU on the days that you are on call. You and the present cardiologists will run an integrated ward-based service for CCU and C1 ward and will undertake new and follow-up outpatient clinics. The ward based service is supported by frailty input.
It is anticipated that the post holder will have a background in general cardiology and a specialist interest that compliments and enhances our current services.
