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

It is an exciting time to become part of the Blackpool Teaching Hospitals Family as we embark on a transformational change journey in the way which we provide services to our patient’s and their families across the ICS.

There are a number of wards within the acute hospital setting dedicated to Care of The Older Person, however the Trust will also have a number of outliers across other medical wards in the hospital. We also have a rehabilitation hospital based in another seaside resort of St. Annes on the Sea. The Division boasts a revolutionary extensive care service as part of our community services, which provides support to our elderly local population in the community setting. In addition to this service the Trust is also in early stages of introducing a front door frailty service and robust programme with other stakeholders across the Integrated Care System (ICS). The Trust is currently developing its Emergency Department and introducing a Same Day Emergency Care Unit (SDEC).

The Trust's mission is "Together We Care" which encompasses the strategic vision for operating as a high performing organisation within an Integrated Care System (ICS), which provides quality, safe and effective care. This will be achieved in a financially sustainable way through our values-driven, skilled and motivated workforce:
People-centred
- Serving people is the focus of everything we do;
Positive
- having a "can do" response whatever the situation;
Compassion
- always demonstrating we care;
Excellence
- continually striving to provide the best care possible.

Our Values are drivers for the behaviours that all our staff strive to demonstrate.

The values and behaviours have been and continue to be embedded and communicated across the organisation via a number of initiatives - including our recruitment processes, corporate induction, team briefings, meetings, appraisals and our annual awards ceremony.

You will be part of a medical consultant team and supported by a team of junior and trainee medical staff. In addition we have a variety of other Clinical support teams who we work alongside through an MDT approach to care ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients. Our multi-disciplinary team in Geriatric Medicine is highly motivated and friendly and they have worked together towards establishing frailty and geriatric services in this Trust. We now want to continue building on this positive work by assessing more frail patients at the front door, thus improving patient outcomes.

We have developed a video with some of our key roles within the Directorate to tell you in their words what it is like working for Blackpool Teaching Hospitals within the attached link:
Whether you aspire to set down some roots in a seaside resort or in one of our more rural towns across the Fylde Coast, there are plenty of good local schools and some very competitive house prices to allow you to maximise your NHS salary to get an excellent standard of living. Preston City Centre is only 20 miles away and we have excellent train links for travel across the United Kingdom. Manchester and Liverpool are both within easy reach for airport access to travel internationally.
