Consultant in Intensive Care Medicine

1 week ago

Rhyl, Denbighshire, United Kingdom Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board Full time

Glan Clwyd Hospital is seeking new consultants in critical care. We are offering an excellent opportunity for a fulfilling consultant post in a beautiful but well-connected rural location. The full-time vacancies are for ten programmed activities (10 PA) per week based at Glan Clwyd Hospital in Bodelwyddan in North Wales. It is anticipated seven sessions will be for direct clinical care (DCC) and three for supporting professional activities (SPA), in-line with the Consultant contract for Wales. We are happy to discuss requests to work less than full time either before or after interview according to candidates' preferences. Additional contracted clinical sessions may also be offered to successful candidates, subject to mutual agreement and satisfactory job-planning.

Most of our existing critical care consultants are from an anaesthetic background, but our most recent appointee is an intensivist working exclusively in critical care. We would be delighted to consider applications from other single specialty ICM consultants or those with other second specialties, such as emergency medicine. Main duties of the job Daily cover on critical care comprises 2 consultants present all day, along with junior tiers. The 2 consultants act as consultants of the week, running the critical care unit from Monday to Sunday. This week is then followed by an uncontracted week when the consultant is not required to be at work (for clinical or SPA activities). The critical care unit currently has 8 consultants, working 1 in 4weeks as consultant of the week. Recruitment of additional consultants will reduce this frequency. Daytime clinical activity in subsequent weeks contains a mixture of theatre lists (for anaesthetists) and occasional critical care days depending on study leave/sickness cover. For applicants with other second specialities, clinical sessions in their relevant specialty can be considered e.g. Emergency medicine or transfer medicine. Out of hours work comprises duties covering the critical care unit as part of the critical care consultant on-call rota, 1 in 8 with prospective cover. Again, subject to new appointments, the aim is to reduce the out-of-hours commitment to a 1 in 12 rota. About us Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) is the largest health organisation in Wales, with a budget of £1.7 billion and a workforce of over 19,000 staff. The Health Board provides primary, community, mental health and acute hospital services for the population of North Wales.
