NHS Locum Consultant for Stroke

3 months ago


Northampton, United Kingdom Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust. Full time

We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and innovative Stroke Physician to join our dynamic team, working on our Primary and regional Stroke Centre at Northampton General Hospital in Northampton. You will be joining a highly motivated and highly performing Stroke Team at Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust, Affiliated to University of Leicester and will be one of five Stroke Physicians working on the Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust site. You will be expected to support Stroke Services and participate on the thrombolysis on-call rota at Northampton General Hospital.

Main duties of the job

This is an opportunity to join an ambitious and forward looking stroke service as a Consultant Stroke Physician based at Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust. The post is full time (10+2 PAs) with opportunities for part time work for applicants who may prefer this option. This post will complement and augment the Stroke Service currently provided by the five existing Consultant Stroke Physicians at NGH and 2 stroke physicians at KGH including 24/7 thrombolysis and thrombectomy delivery fully supported by stroke specialist nurses.

Northampton General Hospital is the Primary Stroke Centre for Northamptonshire and has a cohesive team of experienced staff from all disciplines.

The Northampton stroke service has developed over many years and has a centrally placed 21 bed Hyperacute stroke unit (Benham ward) near A& E, radiology and ITU with a 27 bed subacute/rehabilitation unit (Allebone ward) next door and close to a nearby excellent physiotherapy gymnasium. The Northamptonshire Community Stroke team links with the inpatient stroke team to facilitate a smooth transition for patients back into the community.

Over the past year our SSNAP score has varied between 78-80, giving us A/B. It is our plan to become a solid A, and consolidate this over the next year.

We have similar stroke numbers on the SSNAP audit to Nottingham and Leicester and so we are a significantly sized service with ample opportunity for service development and improvements.
