Locum Consultant Lower Limb

5 months ago


BarrowInFurness, United Kingdom University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is a new lower limb hip and knee post at the University Hospitals Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust to help meet the increasing demands for lower limb services. It represents a wonderful opportunity to take up a 12 months’ locum consultant post in a friendly and well equipped District General Hospital, whilst enjoying an excellent quality of life in an area of outstanding natural beauty.

You will be part of a 1 in 9 consultant on-call rota and when on-call will be expected to run an emergency orthopaedic service required of a level-two trauma centre performing all common trauma operations. Sub-specialist support from colleagues will be available for specialist fractures outside of your field (eg complex upper limb fractures). For patient safety and to allow multiple site working, all patients admitted acutely are seen daily on a “Senior Decision Maker” ward round by an orthopaedic consultant or SAS and the post holder will perform a proportionate share of these ward rounds.

The post holder will undertake a minimum 10 PAs including 1.5 SPAs and 1 admin PA. There will be the option to add a further 2 clinical PAs if desired and, once in post, a further 1 SPA can be awarded if justified (this will be reviewed within 12 months of taking up the post). Attendance at monthly audit, mortality and morbidity meetings will be expected as will engagement in audit. Where travel between sites is required appropriate time will be factored into job plan and and travel expenses will be paid.

We operate from three main hospitals - Furness General Hospital (FGH) in Barrow, the Royal Lancaster Infirmary (RLI), and Westmorland General Hospital (WGH) in Kendal, as well as a number of community health care premises including Millom Hospital and GP Practice, Queen Victoria Hospital in Morecambe, and Ulverston Community Health Centre.

FGH and the RLI have a range of General Hospital services, with full Emergency Departments, Critical/Coronary Care units and various Consultant-led services.

WGH provides a range of General Hospital services, together with an Urgent Treatment Centre, that can help with a range of non-life-threatening conditions such as broken bones and minor illnesses.

All three main hospitals provide a range of planned care including outpatients, diagnostics, therapies, day case and inpatient surgery. In addition, a range of local outreach services and diagnostics are provided from community facilities across Morecambe Bay

As a University Teaching Hospital, it will be expected that the post-holder supports the teaching of medical students from Lancaster University. There will also be opportunities to get involved with examining medical students and in conducting research.
