The department has very close links with the audiology department, who are adjacent, and there is a small multidisciplinary team of allied health professionals who maintain a special interest in head & neck pathology, including a speech therapist, a dietician and a parenteral feeding nurse. The hospital has a dedicated upper GI general surgeon and a maxillofacial surgeon who shares some head & neck cancer work. The post holder will be required to participate in a 1:4 oncall rota. There is currently no middle tier of on-call for ENT, meaning that the Consultants and Associate Specialist are first on-call, liaising directly with the well-staffed ED department, as well as taking GP referrals. Slots are pre-allocated in OPD clinics to allow for the review of emergency patients during working hours. Jersey operates on a different system of remuneration for on-call whereby sessions are allocated in lieu of contracted commitments rather than financial remuneration, with the 1:4 on-call attracting 2 programmed activities. There is a possibility the role may change to a 1-5 with investment in the workforce. The successful applicant will also be required to contribute to the teaching of nursing staff, elective medical students and any resident doctors spending time in the department. There will be the opportunity for undertaking Educational Supervision to foundation Years doctors for those who have done the necessary educational training. This job description is intended as a guide to the general scope of duties and is not intended to be definitive or restrictive. It is expected that some of the duties will change over time and this description will be subject to review in consultation with the post holder. The jop plan includes a minimum of 1.5 SPA for mandatory/essential CPD for the purposes of personal revalidation and safe working. There is scope for a further 1 SPA where clinicians undertake optional SPA activities such as Educational Supervision, Teaching, Research, Quality Assurance work. Such additional activity above the contracted 10PAs (up to 11PAs) will be funded (non-pensionable) so along as the activity is agreed on the annual job plan.
