We are thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity that has become available for an experienced Cardiology Consultant to join a prestig ious NHS trust.
As a Consultant in this enriching and highly varied field of medicine, not only do you play a significant role in the emergency treatment of patients in a critical condition, but you are also a pillar of clinical and educational support for junior doctors.
Working flexible shifts, you will enjoy close working relationships with your fellow healthcare professionals as you work to ensure the highest standards of care are provided to adult patients with diseases and defects of the heart and blood vessels.
This NHS trusttakes their contribution to medical development and advancement seriously. As a result, you will have access to some of the most advanced medical equipment in the country.
As a Cardiologist, you will be dedicated to imparting complex knowledge and championing skill enhancement throughout the department. Leading by example you will be encouraging uptake for the wide range of development and support packages available.
In addition to your qualifications, as a Cardiology Consultant, you will have:
* Quick thinking abilities
* Patience and the ability to teach, coach and mentor
* Excellent attention to detail
* A systematic approach to tasks and delegation
* A pro-active approach to research and academia
* Empathy and understanding
* A dedication to improving and developing knowledge and skills
Main Duties/Responsibilities
As a Consultant Cardiologist you will:
* Actively support patients and their families, communicating clinical information to explain a diagnosis and treatment options using various methods to ensure practical understanding.
* Coordinate treatment plans and prescribe various types of treatment.
* Provide constant monitoring and care for patients.
* Communicate with patients and the wider multidisciplinary team on shared patient decision making.
* Work in and where appropriate, lead a multidisciplinary team.
* Assess and prioritise patient/client requirements, delegating effectively to others.
* Recognise, review, and report a patient's condition and any changes to the patient and the multidisciplinary team.
* Performing basic administrative and clerical tasks, such as keeping records of test results, writing prescriptions, providing information to patients, and monitoring treatment plans.
Qualifications/Licenses/Certifications
* Be a GMC registered doctor (and ideally be on the Specialist Register).
* Have relevant NHS experience at Consultant level, or references to support your transition up to this level.
* Hold evidence of stand-alone Right to Work in the UK (unfortunately locum jobs aren't able to offer visa sponsorship).
* You will need to pass an enhanced background check (DBS).
If you are looking for a role within a Trust that continuously strives to achieve excellence and embody its core values, apply today and be a part of something amazing, where a more team-based sub-specialised approach is replacing the single-handed general cardiologist model.
