Working for our organisation

Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust provides hospital services to a growing population of around 700,000 people living across Bedfordshire and the surrounding areas across two busy hospital sites in Bedford and Luton. Both hospital sites offer key services such as A&E, Obstetrics-led Maternity and Paediatrics.

You will be joining a friendly, high performing Trust committed to ensuring the health and wellbeing of staff. As one of the largest NHS Trusts in our region you will have access to a programme of high quality training and development to help you grow your career.

We have state-of-the art facilities placing us at the heart of cutting edge health care. The Trust continues to be committed to delivering the best patient care using the best clinical knowledge and technology available.

All new staff will be subject to a probationary period covering their first six months in post. Travel between hospital sites may be required.

Please review all documents attached to this advert to ensure you familiarize yourself with all requirements of the job.

Detailed job description and main 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.
