Job description
The post is to support the care provided to women within the Women's Units at Birmingham Heartlands, Good Hope and Solihull Hospitals (HGS) now part of University Hospital Birmingham. Cross site working will be part of the main duties and responsibilities.
The post holder will be expected to work with local managers and professional colleagues in the efficient running and development of the obstetric services. The appointee will:
*Join the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Consultant team to deliver a first class service at University Hospital Birmingham and contribute to the development of the service.
*Support the directorate in meeting the challenging key safety and performance indicators.
*Deliver agreed standards of care and participate in consultant presence on delivery suites at Heartlands and Good Hope Hospitals and on-call for Obstetrics across all sites.
*Provide continuing patient care in partnership with consultant colleagues across the hospital sites.
*Support delivery of activity targets in partnership with Clinical Commissioning Groups and support service developments including the Birmingham and Solihull United Maternity Programme (BUMP) through the Local Maternity Service (LMS).
*Allow flexibility through effective prospective cover of sickness and annual leave.
*Provide professional supervision, direction and training for junior medical staff.
*Take an active role in audit, research, teaching and governance.
*Participate in the late evening shift and cross site on-call rota for obstetrics
*Participate in plans to lead to cost efficiencies across the specialty.
*Contribute to risk management procedures.
*Ensure Continuing Professional Development targets are achieved.
*Take part in the GMC revalidation, annual appraisal and job planning processes.
The post holder will undertake other duties as may be required to achieve the Trust's objectives, commensurate with the grading of the post.
These duties and responsibilities are not intended to be exhaustive. Duties may be subject to review in the light of changing circumstances. Duties will be reflected in a job plan, which will be subject to annual review with the Clinical Service Leads and the Divisional Director.
The post holder will be provided with the necessary IT equipment and access to training to be in position to meet these objectives. Office space and secretarial support will be provided although both may be shared.
Supporting professional activities (SPAs) are expected to be worked on site unless agreed otherwise with the Clinical Service Leads and specified in the job plan. SPA's will be allocated within the Trust to provide time for development of staff, services, governance and other issues as determined by the post holder in agreement with the Clinical Service Leads. Time for private practice off site is supported under the contract.
Flexible Direct Clinical Care (DCC) will be used firstly for emergency cover to cover a colleague on leave and occasionally to increase activity because of peaks in demand. Six weeks' notice will generally be given for work required outside regular PA sessions. Total PAs can be averaged over a number of weeks to do more than 10 in some weeks and less in others, as long as an average of 10 PAs per week is achieved. Late evenings and weekend on call are allocated on a rota at least 6 weeks in advance. Cover for long days and weekends that are inconvenient for any reason is arranged by the person allocated to that night or weekend by swapping with a colleague. They will be responsible for informing the rota organiser and the switchboard of any differences from the published rota.
The operational principle that the directorate aims to achieve whenever possible is for another consultant to re-use patient contact sessions that would otherwise be cancelled or remain uncovered due to leave or other agreed reasons for absence.
