Overview
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW) is now part of the Bristol NHS Group, aiming to deliver exceptional local services for local people and specialist services across the South West. The Department of General Anaesthesia sits within the Division of Surgery; however, the wider anaesthesia service bridges four clinical divisions of UHBW: Surgery (general anaesthesia and critical care), Weston, Specialised Services (cardiac anaesthesia) and Women’s and Children’s (paediatric and obstetric anaesthesia). The department of anaesthesia is seeking consultants in general anaesthesia to join the team based at the Bristol Royal Infirmary.

The post holder will be expected to contribute to both the predictable out-of-hours weekend rota and on call rota across both sites. The role will be split across the following hospital sites: Bristol Royal Infirmary, Weston General Hospital, St Michael’s Hospital, Bristol Eye Hospital and South Bristol Community Hospital.
