Job description

Job responsibilities

The role is based within the respiratory ward, working alongside a team of doctors, including 2 other registrars, foundation year doctors, core level trainees, and a consultant. You will be caring for predominantly respiratory patients, and some patients with general medical conditions (the ward has a strong support from the other medical and surgical specialties). You will be expected to cover inpatient referrals for respiratory opinions from other wards, with the appropriate consultant support. The role involves performing procedures, including pleural procedures on inpatients. There are opportunities to also support the pleural clinic by performing pleural procedures on outpatients if necessary.

It is therefore important to have a good background in respiratory medicine, and due to the hospital having an unselected medical take, to have some general medicine experience to help manage the ward inpatients.

Please note this post is a Monday- Friday 09:00-17:00 Post.
