Cambourne, United Kingdom Hampshire And Isle Of Wight Healthcare Nhs Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust and Solent NHS Trust are seeking one or two Consultant Geriatricians to play a central role in the development and delivery of our community services in the Portsmouth and South East Hampshire Locality.
Successful applicant/s will be based at Gosport War Memorial Hospital (GWM) and/or Petersfield Community Hospital (PCH) as part of MDT working across in-patient and community services.A central component of the role will be medical advice and guidance to the in-patient wards, providing senior and experienced clinical oversight to complex and challenging patients across our 4 community hospital wards and 2 frailty virtual wards.
Day-to-day clinical responsibility for ward beds is provided by nurse consultants, Specialty Doctors and Advance Clinical Practitioners.
The consultant geriatrician is key to enabling the multi-disciplinary ward team to handle complexity, manage frailty expertly and help to widen our step-up capability for local patients.
The post holders will work closely with acute Trust colleagues to support appropriate treatment Escalation and step-down rehabilitation pathways.
Main duties of the job A central component of this post is the provision of clinical leadership by the post holder.
This functions on two main levels: firstly, through providing readily available clinical sup-port and advice to community ( District Nurses, Community Matrons and Therapists) and GP colleagues.
The ability of community and primary care teams to support complex and frail patients in their own homes requires access to timely and expert clinical support in managing those patients effectively.
Thus, the post holder will need to be comfortable moving away from a model of primarily providing direct clinical input to patients to a balanced model in which advisory, educational and supportive clinical input is provided to GPs and community colleagues alongside the MDT approach to direct clinical care.Secondly, existing clinical service structures will need to adapt to changes in service delivery around patients in their own homes.
For example, the strengthening of step-up care to community hospital wards and the provision of support to patients in their own homes will require the development of existing services.
It is important that all transformation work is clinically led and informed by clinical expertise.
