Senior Consultant in Geriatric and Stroke Medicine

2 months ago

Barnstaple, Devon, United Kingdom Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Position Overview

This is a remarkable opportunity to craft a consultant role tailored to your professional goals. You will have the chance to engage in various areas including frailty, orthogeriatrics, movement disorders, syncope, stroke, and peri-operative medicine. We actively promote and facilitate participation in research, innovation, service enhancement, and education within a large healthcare organization that values patient care and the welfare of its employees.

Key Responsibilities

For a comprehensive overview of the primary responsibilities associated with this position, please refer to the detailed job description provided below. As an integral member of the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, you will collaborate with an outstanding team dedicated to ensuring our patients maintain their health during critical times.

About Our Organization

Spanning Northern, Eastern, and Mid Devon, our workforce exceeds 15,000, making us the largest employer in the region. We provide essential services to over 615,000 individuals across more than 2,000 square miles, with some specialized services extending throughout the peninsula, reaching as far as Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.

Our facilities include North Devon District Hospital and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Wonford), where we deliver a comprehensive range of emergency, specialized, and general medical services.

In addition to our two acute hospitals, we offer integrated health and social care services across diverse environments, including community inpatient facilities, outpatient clinics, and home care. Our primary care services encompass a variety of specialized community offerings and Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARC).

Equipped with cutting-edge technology and strong partnerships with local universities, we are at the forefront of research and innovation, enabling us to provide exceptional care to our communities.

This is an exciting time to join the Royal Devon, as you will play a vital role in shaping our services during our integration journey.

Role Specifics

The Royal Devon is looking to appoint Consultant Physicians specializing in Geriatric and Stroke Medicine at the North Devon District Hospital site.

Established in April 2022, the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust combines the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust and the Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust to deliver core services to a population of 615,000 and specialized services to a broader audience across the South West Peninsula. This unique organization integrates acute and community services throughout North and Mid Devon, utilizing a unified advanced electronic notes system (EPIC) with an integrated patient portal. The departments focused on elderly care operate cohesively as a single team. Consultants provide both in-person and remote care from various sites. The department is committed to supporting newly appointed consultants in developing sub-specialty interests, as well as pursuing research and educational opportunities.

The Royal Devon is dedicated to enhancing services in North Devon and aims to attract the finest clinicians to this picturesque region. This role presents an excellent opportunity to influence and improve our elderly care services with the backing of our senior management and consultant team. Significant investments have been made in our infrastructure, including a dementia-friendly ward and improved pathways for frail patients to enhance access. We are also transforming our community hospital beds into a model for non-acute frailty services.

Our non-medical model is robust, featuring exceptional therapy leadership, and our Pathfinder team serves as a bridge between acute and community care, facilitating reduced admissions and supporting complex discharges. This team includes senior nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers, and support staff, ensuring a high standard of patient care.

The Trust boasts a multi-million-pound clinical research facility, is a NIHR Biomedical Research Centre, and has ambitious plans for the future. Additionally, we are located in Devon, a region celebrated for its natural beauty, including stunning beaches and moorlands, excellent educational institutions, good transport connections, and a high quality of life.
