In addition, applicants who are currently or have most recently been employed as a substantive Consultant or as a Locum Consultant in post for more than 12 months must also provide the name of their Medical Director as an additional referee.

The post holder will work closely with Consultant colleagues as well as a broad multidisciplinary team to deliver high quality nephrology services to our patients.

The David Thomas Haemodialysis Unit at University Hospital of Wales has recently been extensively refurbished, and has capacity for 28 patients per week. The Unit focuses on caring for inpatients at UHW with non-renal problems, as well as outpatients with complex needs requiring specific care only available in an in-hospital setting.

The Directorate runs an active Home Therapies programme, and currently manages approximately 65 patients receiving Peritoneal Dialysis therapies, and approximately 40 patients receiving Home Haemodialysis. This area of care is a focus for development and expansion in the Directorate’s current strategy.
