Job responsibilities

C

Clinical Duties:

The post holder is required to hold a CCT or equivalent. As such the post holder should be trained in all aspects of general paediatrics and neonatology. A special interest (SPIN) in Neonatology is desirable, but we would also welcome applicants from candidates who can demonstrate significant equivalent experience and interest in Neonatology. Any other special interests will be discussed as to how they may fit into the department and will be supported as much as possible.

The service commitment will be on a consultant of the week model, with responsibilities for the neonatal unit, and also a separate service week as postnatal ward/transitional care consultant. There will also be a regular commitment to GP advice & guidance and referral triage.

There is also a 1:16 commitment to Paediatric Assessment Unit Consultant cover. There will also be a commitment to neonatal and general paediatric (or subspecialty, eg: urology) outpatient clinics.

There is no on-site PICU but patients are stabilised in the ED or on the adult ICU whilst awaiting retrieval with support from the anaesthetic department. Where the patient is a critically unwell baby (as a guide, under 3 months of age), the neonatal team will provide critical care skills and support for stabilisation prior to retrieval by the regional Paediatric Intensive Care WATCh team.

Undertaking ward rounds around the neonatal unit and transitional care unit daily, aiming, where possible, for these ward rounds to be done in partnership with the baby(ie)s parents.

All consultants are willing to support new members of the team and a mentor within the department will be allocated.

Multidisciplinary team working is key component of the working within the Trust and involves regular MDT discussions with colleagues including our nursing, midwifery, obstetric, ANNP and AHP teams.

Responsibilities for carrying out teaching, examination and accreditation duties are required, and for contributing to undergraduate and post-graduate and continuing medical education activity.
