Blackpool, United Kingdom Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for enthusiastic and motivated individuals to join our friendly and dynamic team at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to develop and embed high quality care for the frail and older patients in varying clinical settings across acute and community locations. We are looking to recruit consultants with passion for excellent care to join our diverse and supportive team which also includes advanced clinical practitioners, nurse consultants and GPs with an interest in frailty. New consultants would be supported with a mentor.
We are particularly keen to improve several of our services particularly our Frailty pathway (acute, community and virtual), our Orthogeriatric service and Parkinson’s Disease service.

The clinical commitments of this post, dependent on subspecialist interest, include responsibility for inpatient acute hospital care, outpatient clinics, community work, virtual ward support and on-call for general medicine. Our aim is to develop a seamless frailty pathway for patients across both acute and community settings. There will be opportunities to be a part of our multidisciplinary Frailty team which reviews patients in our Frailty
Assessment Area, supports Frailty Virtual Ward and work alongside our Community Frailty Service team. There will be opportunities to develop an alternative subspecialist interest, such as Orthogeriatrics or Movement Disorders. The post holder will be actively involved in training junior doctors and students who rotate through our department, including medical students from the Universities of Liverpool and Lancaster. The post holder will additionally support the development and training of advanced clinical practitioners and allied health professionals. The Trust has a state-of-the-art Simulation and Skills Facility which is accessible to students and staff. Should the successful applicant wish to develop a research
interest then this would be encouraged.

Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust serves a resident population of approximately 330,000 and the 12 million holidaymakers who visit the area every year.
The Trust comprises Blackpool Victoria Hospital which is a large busy acute hospital, a smaller community/ rehabilitation hospital - Clifton Hospital.
