4 months ago

Worthing, United Kingdom 279 University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity to join the general and colorectal cancer surgical team to help develop a model of surgical care that will deliver high quality, timely cancer surgery in a high volume surgical site.

The locum post is offered to facilitate learning with a dual site post (Worthing hospital and Royal Sussex County hospital sites) for elective surgery and emergency and OPD respectively. Supporting the team to review and enable a single UHSussex CRC MDT, develop care pathways and engage with patient engagement and safety reviews.

As the new model of surgical care further substantive consultant posts will be developed, alongside nursing, theatre and wider MDT posts.

Attendance at CRC MDT and support the work to merge to single CRC MDT.

Outpatient and if requested endoscopy at RSCH & PRH sites to support local diagnostic and elective pathways.

Elective surgical work (general and cancer ) at Worthing hospital, combined with 1:8 on call rota at RSCH site.

The on call will include major trauma attendance and consultant lead support to resident junior doctors.

A significant component of this post is to understand the dual site working, enable the teams to develop and formalise (with patients and stakeholders) a model of delivery of CRC surgery in a timely manner, in a high volume centre with high volume surgical practice.

At UHSussex, diversity is our strength, and we want you to feel included to help us always put the Patient First, as shown in our Outstanding for Caring CQC rating.

From the moment you start with us and throughout your career we will help you to grow and develop. We hope that in choosing UHSussex you are choosing a long and happy career where you will be able to see the difference you make and feel valued for all that you do.
