About the role
Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust is pleased to announce the introduction of these new roles aimed at doctors who are passionate about their practice and their career outside traditional models. Our posts will combine education and career development with practical patient-facing care.
Main duties

This involves standard days, long days, weekends and twilights but no night shifts and work is always scheduled alongside a senior registrar. This post is aimed for a doctor working at a level equivalent to a ST3 paediatric trainee or those who have a wealth of experience at paediatric registrar level in other settings but have never worked in the NHS at paediatric registrar level.
Duties will be based primarily on our Pinderfields Hospital site although all our medical staff are involved in delivering care to patients on all our sites.
The main duties of the post will include:
Provision of care with responsibility for the management of patients with acute and chronic conditions including complex cases.
Referral of patients to other specialities as appropriate
Out-patient activities/clinics
Involvement in specialty and cross-specialty multi-disciplinary teams and meetings
Involvement in relevant administration duties
Teaching and supervision of junior medical staff, medical students and other clinicians as appropriate
Active involvement in audit and clinical governance including service improvement activities
The above list is not intended to be exhaustive and it is likely duties may be altered from time to time in the light of changing circumstances and after discussion with the post holder.
