Teaching: The successful candidate will be actively involved in teaching resident doctors and Southampton University medical students, including sessions in the Dry Skills Laboratory and Simulation Suite.
Audit: A half-day per month is allocated for audit and medical education, with only clinical emergencies attended during this time. Ongoing CME/CPD participation is expected.
Research: The clinical nature of the post should not discourage those wishing to partake in active research, particularly when incorporating trainees and encouraging them to do likewise. The department has participated in several national and international research trials in both Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
Office, computer, and secretarial support are provided.
Key:
Direct Clinical Care (DCC): Activity directly relating to the prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of illness that forms part of the services provided by the employing organization under section 3(1) or section 5(1)(b) of the NHS Act 1977. This includes:
* Emergency duties (including emergency work during or arising from on-call)
* Operating sessions including pre-operative and post-operative care
* Ward rounds
* Outpatient activities
* Clinical diagnostic work
* Other patient treatment
* Multi-disciplinary meetings or other meetings related directly to patient care
* Administration related to the above (including referrals & notes)
Supporting Professional Activities: Activities underpinning Direct Clinical Care, including participation in training, medical education, CPD, formal teaching, audit, job planning, appraisal, research, clinical management, and local governance activities.
The Early Pregnancy and Urgent Gynaecology Care Centre at Frimley Park Hospital operates daily from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm with dedicated staff, including a receptionist, nurses, and consultant presence. It receives direct referrals to help reduce Emergency Department visits and support Same Day Emergency Services. The new appointee is expected to join the weekday rota alongside consultants with a special interest in this area. The job plan will allocate 8.5 programmed activities (PAs) for direct clinical care and up to 1.5 PAs for supporting professional activities. The final plan will be agreed upon with the Chief of Service and Chief Executive after Directorate discussions. The work pattern may change over time, with annual reviews conducted in line with consultant contracts, job planning, and appraisals.
The proposed timetable each week will consist of fixed and flexible sessions.
