Collaboration with existing consultants and the multi-disciplinary team is essential for providing a well-led service to patients, including diagnosis, investigations, treatment, and management in accordance with Trust policies.
Direct clinical care is provided to patients across all parts of the department, actively assisting in clinical decision-making. The medical team offers comprehensive senior clinical cover, conducting patient assessments, and providing consultant-level coverage during ward rounds, multi-disciplinary team meetings, and clinics.

The job entails working in the Bradley Unit, a neurorehabilitation facility with 20 beds, and conducting outpatient clinics, including Spasticity Management and general Neurorehabilitation clinics.
