Overview
General Paediatric duties include 8 ward weeks/year with double Consultant of The Week cover for the Paediatric Wards. One Consultant is in charge of the Children's Clinical Decision Area and provides clinical support to the Ambulatory Care Nurses looking after children at home. The other Consultant is in charge of the Children's and Young People Unit (Ward 30) and conducts the daily hand overs and ward rounds. The rota for the year is agreed bi-annually so that outpatient sessions can be cancelled as appropriate and leave factored in. The Paediatric team provide resident evening cover of the wards until 22:00 throughout the week Monday to Friday and second consultant ward round support at the weekend 08:30-14:30. Duties will also include participation in the on-call rota (all existing full time consultant posts have 2.13 PA/week for on-call duties which includes an allocation for weekend ward rounds) and a contribution to delivering the safeguarding service for non-sexual abuse assessments. (There are separate arrangements for assessing sexual abuse which are not part of this post).
