NHS Grampian

Fixed Term Consultant in Geriatric Medicine

EG192641

We are seeking an enthusiastic and forward-thinking full-time, 6-month Fixed Term Consultant in Geriatric Medicine to develop and deliver high-quality care for older people living with frailty in NHS Grampian. The Grampian region offers a unique blend of urban and rural living, with easy access to stunning natural beauty and a range of outdoor pursuits. Our city benefits from high-quality schools and facilities for further education.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a community-facing service focused on 'home first' principles. We provide early Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment on a 25-bedded Geriatric Assessment Unit in the Emergency Care Centre of Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Our unit has been recognized nationally for its excellent performance in the Scottish Care of Older People (SCoOP) Acute Hospital Outcomes report.

We are developing new areas of working, and we welcome candidates with special interests who will be accommodated and supported as much as possible. We are looking to expand our team to further develop our well-established community services, including our Hospital at Home service, which has been Consultant-led since March 2021.

This Consultant role has the potential to be tailored to individual skills and interests, but key areas of work will include:

  • Early Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment on our 25-bedded Geriatric Assessment Unit, working as part of a highly functioning multidisciplinary team.
  • 1 in 12 weekday and weekend on-call.
  • Additional area(s) of special interest, including Community Geriatrics, Hospital at Home, Orthogeriatrics, Surgical & Medical Liaison, Rehabilitation, and Parkinson's disease.

We have a strong culture of education, research, quality improvement, and service design within the department. The successful post holder would have ample non-clinical time in the job plan to support delivery against these ambitions. We have strong links with the University of Aberdeen and an active research team led by Clinical Chair in Medicine of Old Age.

We welcome applicants from those wishing to work flexibly or less than full-time. We are committed to endorsing a diverse and inclusive team. Full registration with a license to practice with the GMC is required. For more information, please visit our website.
