Port Talbot, United Kingdom Swansea Bay University Health Board Full time

Job Details

Swansea Bay Palliative Care Team are pleased and excited to advertise these 2 new consultant posts:

Community Palliative Care Inpatient Palliative Care Unit and Community Palliative Care

These posts are part of the expansion of the established and well-respected department of Specialist Palliative Care to better meet the palliative and end of life care needs of patients and their families. It forms part of the Health Board's Clinical Redesign Programme (CRP) which will transform the way the health board functions. The CRP includes use of virtual wards in community and primary care and redesigning the function of each of the three major hospitals.

As Phoebe Taplin outlined in her Guardian article of August 21 there are many reasons to base yourself in Swansea and imagine [you're] somewhere Mediterranean. Swansea has low living costs and plenty of reasons to keep your work and life goals in balance partly due to it proximity to outstanding natural beauty such as the Gower Peninsula and the Brecon Beacons National Park- while London is still only 3 hours away by train.

Main duties of the job

Together with Consultant colleagues, be responsible for the provision of specialist palliative care to the Swansea Bay University Health Board, and for the community it serves. Be based in the specialist inpatient unit and community team. Indicative data for the clinical workload in these areas is given in the descriptions. Have responsibility for the proper functioning of the department in line with the operational policies of the Health Board. Be expected to provide second on call cover in association with other Consultant colleagues to support the first on call junior and middle grade doctors. The Consultant rota currently includes cover for six beds in Ty Bryngwyn, Prince Phillip Hospital, Hywel Dda Health Board, twelve beds in Ty Olwen. 1.5 WTE Consultant in Palliative Medicine Hywel Dda participates in this on-call rota, with the understanding that this is shortly due to increase by up to 2 WTE. When on call, provide telephone advice on specialist palliative care to primary and secondary care teams for the South West Wales population and in exceptional circumstances the direct assessment of patients. The on call workload is highly variable and on average amounts to a few hours' unplanned work per weekend day including some phone calls, some attendances at the inpatient units and occasionally assessments elsewhere. Consideration is given to time off in lieu after on call working when this is required by the out of hours workload.
