3 months ago
Job summary
Following the successful implementation of the Medical Examiner (ME) service, the Trust is entering the next phase of delivering a ME service within Staffordshire/Derbyshire. We are looking for enthusiastic doctors to join our experienced and dedicated team of MEs from both primary and secondary care.

The ME service will ensure the accuracy of death certification and drive improvements in patient care.
As an ME, you will conduct a proportionate scrutiny of the records of deceased patients and discuss the proposed cause of death with the attending doctor. MEs discuss the cause of death with bereaved families and establish if they have any questions or concerns. They can also help to identify whether a case requires referral to the Coroner's Office or needs further investigation through the organisation's mortality review process.
Each of the three posts attracts 1PA per week in Derby with a fourth post of PAs in Burton, all with an expectation of additional working at weekends on an on-call basis in the near future. Further details can be found in the attached job description.
