Locum Consultant in Urology

4 weeks ago


Blackburn, United Kingdom East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

The Urology service at ELHT is progressive and forward thinking, this post presents an exciting opportunity to join a cohesive team of enthusiastic Urology professionals who are supported by high quality colleagues in the wider MDT team.

With this appointment there will be 11 (8 full time) Urology Consultants supporting a 1:8 on-call rota with middle grade cover. The department is actively looking to expand and will be advertising at least one further substantive post in the near future.

There is subspecialisation in Oncology, Endourology and functional Urology. All consultants still undertake core Urology. Andrology services are also provided but are mainly run by a Clinical Nurse Specialist.

The department is an accredited cancer centre for the Lancashire and South Cumbria Cancer Network where the major pelvic cancer surgery is currently split between East Lancashire Hospitals Trust and one other provider. The trust has two NHS commissionedda Vincirobots which are used for radical prostatectomies, partial nephrectomies and cystectomies. The trust is also a referral centre for complex stone surgery including PCNL procedures.

1. Provide a patient centred service, respecting the privacy, dignity and choice of individual patients.

1. Observe and comply with clinical and non-clinical policies and procedures (including local and national employment and personnel policies) agreed with employees and management.

1. Be closely involved in clinical audit and other clinical governance issues (Support for Quality Improvement Projects and Audits is provided by the Trust Audit team).

East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust provides a caring service to a population of 550,000 in the Pennine Lancashire area. Services are provided from our two main sites, the Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital and Burnley General Teaching Hospital and from our community rehabilitation wards at Pendle Community Hospital, Accrington Victoria Hospital and Clitheroe Community Hospital.

Our current five-year clinical strategy ‘Fit for the Future’ provides a robust clinical platform to ensure we deliver safe, personal effective services in the community and in our hospitals.

We provide a full range of acute hospital and adult community services and we are a specialist centre for hepatobiliary, head and neck and urological cancer services, robotic assisted surgery, specialist cardiology services and we are also a network provider of Level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care. We are a nationally accredited Centre for Endometriosis and Uro-Gynaecology Surgery.

Our Blackburn site is the centre for all acute services in East Lancashire other than Obstetrics and Gynaecology. The Emergency Department at Blackburn is the only ED for East Lancashire and is a Trauma Unit in the Lancashire Trauma Network working closely with the Trauma Centre at the Royal Preston Hospital. The ED is supported by Urgent Care Centres at Blackburn and Burnley and a Minor Injuries Unit at Accrington.

The vacancy also comes at an exciting time, with our new bigger and better dedicated Urology Investigation Unit set to open in early Summer 2023, providing opportunities to expand the service that we offer.
