Join to apply for the Trust Registrar CT3 Anaesthetics and ITU North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust role at Pacomarine Limited
North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust is currently one of the newest acute hospital trusts in England, formed on 1 April 2017. The Trust runs Peterborough City Hospital, Hinchingbrooke Hospital and Stamford & Rutland Hospital. Together they serve approximately 700,000 residents.
The Department of Anaesthesia has 45 Consultants and the work undertaken includes all surgical specialities (except cardio-thoracic/neurosurgery). The total workload is 22,000 operations per annum, with 2500 emergency cases and 5500 obstetric deliveries. There are both acute and chronic pain services within the department. The hospital has a 16 bedded Critical Care Unit, providing a mix of level 2 and 3 beds.
The On Call Anaesthesia Consultant is resident every day between 0800 and 2300 and the On Call Critical Care Consultant is resident between 0800 and 2200hrs.
This post is open to Anaesthesia trainees who hold the Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCOA) Basic Level Training Certificate (or equivalent). Applicants also need to be competent in Critical Care and have passed the IACOA.
The post holder will work flexibly, deputising in theatre for Consultant absence and providing on-call cover for Obstetrics and ICU at equivalent to ST4-8 or Registrar grade. There may be the opportunity to continue or develop a sub-speciality.
The department supports FRCA exams and actively encourages participation in audit, research, and educational activities. We also have a newly set up CESR pathway.
Applicants should have full GMC registration and should have completed at least two years of training and service in hospitals recognised by RCOA. Overseas applicants should demonstrate comparable experience. The primary FRCA is desirable and experience in Obstetric anaesthesia and Critical Care is essential.
We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in our workforce and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, with a special focus on welcoming individuals from disabled, Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities, as well as those from our local area.
The post is for 48 hours per week and the post holder will participate in a 1 in 8 full shift rota covering Critical Care or Obstetric Anaesthesia. The successful candidates will be working 7 nights, 7 long days (08:00-20:30) in an 8 week period and 7 twilight shifts over a 16 week period. The remainder of shifts are 08:00-17:30. The rota is fully compliant with the European Working Time Directive including internal cover.
Any sub-specialist interest in Anaesthesia would be encouraged, and we would endeavour to incorporate it into the working program. We have an active educational program and would support and encourage the acquisition of the FRCA Primary or Final, if required.
The Anaesthetic Department provides services at Peterborough City and Stamford Hospitals (chronic pain management), with some consultants doing ad hoc lists at Hinchingbrooke. The work undertaken by the Department includes all the surgical specialities with the exception of cardio-thoracic, major vascular and neurosurgery.
