StokeonTrent, United Kingdom University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust Full time

This post is based at Royal Stoke University Hospital (RSUH) which is part of the University Hospital of North Midlands (UHNM). This post is for a Consultant Neonatologist to complete a team of 9 consultants to deliver neonatal care in the tertiary Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and in the Maternity Unit.

This is an exciting post and an opportunity to join a highly regarded team within an expanding neonatal intensive care service. The post holder will be required to provide the full range of neonatology skills working in collaboration with consultants and multidisciplinary teams in both the Obstetric and Child Health Directorates.

The post consists of 8 PA as a Consultant Neonatologist at UHNM and 2 PA as a Consultant in Neonatal Transport working with KIDSNTS.

The appointee will work with 8 other consultant neonatologists sharing in the provision of neonatal care at UHNM. Responsibility for day-to-day management of the NICU and all associated work will be shared by the neonatal consultants. Consultant cover is required on a 24-hour 7-day week basis. The consultants are also available to provide 24/7 liaison and advice to local neonatal units via the regional specialist neonatal transport team (KIDSNTS) as needed. This post will take an equal share of consultant of the week. This would be 1:9 for out of hours cover and on-call.

The consultant of the week (1) is the consultant covering the intensive care room on the neonatal unit. They are available to supervise medical care on the intensive care room, liaise with nursing staff and to act as a contact with obstetric staff from 08.45 - 16:45 each weekday. All consultants contribute to the 1:9 on call rota (Resident 16:45-21:30) and On-call 21:30-09:15 - 7 days per week. There is a second consultant of the week (2) to support and cover the lower dependency areas.

Outside the neonatal service weeks, the consultant will be free to attend other outpatient, scanning and other non-service obligations.
