4 weeks ago


London, UK, United Kingdom NHS Part time

The Rheumatology department is one of the largest departments of its kind in the country and offers a range of specialist clinics linking with several other departments. There is a dedicated unit on both the Guys and St Thomas Hospital sites. The Louise Coote Unit operates a highly specialised primary and tertiary care service for lupus, vasculitis and other connective tissue diseases. There is substantial full integration with general rheumatology services both clinically and managerially.

This post is an exciting opportunity to work as a part time rheumatology senior clinical fellow, in the Rheumatology Department at Guys and St. Thomass Hospitals. In addition to the clinical component, there is an expectation to participate in lupus research and clinical trials, which should be arranged in advance. The post-holder will also gain experience in a variety of clinics including general and subspecialist rheumatology and lupus clinics.

The Rheumatology Department is one of the largest departments of its kind in the country and offers a range of specialist clinics. The Unit is based at Guys Hospital with additional inpatient activity at St Thomass Hospital.

Main duties of the job

This is a clinical post focused in the rheumatology outpatients setting, with a potential for research to be included. Clinical commitments will be 5 outpatient clinics per week. There may be the occasional requirement to provide ward cover for rheumatology and lupus patients at St Thomas Hospital and cross cover with the specialist registrar team at Guys Hospital. There may be opportunities for the post-holder to get experience in a variety of clinics including musculoskeletal ultrasound. There are also opportunities for involvement in clinical trials with provision of appropriate training. We aim to support, and have had successful, CESR applications but this is dependent on the candidate.

The post-holder will fully participate in the postgraduate education programme which includes twice-monthly departmental meetings and will also be encouraged to attend regional specialist trainee training days. The post-holder will be assigned to an educational and academic supervisor. The post-holder may be expected to contribute to out of hours cover for medicine at St Thomas Hospital a few times a year for which additional payment will be made.

As an organisation, we are committed to developing our services in ways that best suit the needs of our patients. This means that some staff groups will increasingly be asked to work a more flexible shift pattern so that we can offer services in the evenings or at weekends.
