Huddersfield, United Kingdom Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are excited to share an opportunity to join our team of elderly care consultants here at CHFT. A unique opportunity has arisen for a geriatrician to support our new and developing Virtual Ward frailty service as well as supporting acute frailty services in line with Trust reconfiguration.

Our elderly care services have recently been developed to bring our specialty teams together and improve the care of patients in our local community. We have recently invested over £2.5m in our elderly care and acute frailty service to increase the number of consultants, specialist nurses and therapists to support the assessment and management of older frail people.

Our services are currently evolving, and by joining us at this exciting time it will give you the unique opportunity to lead the development of new services across hospital and community settings.
