A new opportunity has arisen to join our friendly, dedicated team and applications are invited for a Locum Less Than full Time Consultant in Renal Medicine and General Medicine. This post will be based primarily at The Cumberland Infirmary Carlisle (CIC), although we also support West Cumberland Hospital (WCH) so there will be a requirement to work across both sites if needed.

This position will incorporate in-patient ward work as well as clinics and on-call commitments.
We currently have 1 Renal/General medicine ward which is based at The Cumberland Infirmary. We also have 2 renal dialysis units (1 at CIC, with 12 beds and 1 at WCH with 11 beds). CIC is the main hub and the WCH unit is a satellite unit. We are looking to expand these units in the future.
Brief duties include:
* Reviewing patients on the renal wards and renal units as well as other wards in the hospital.
* Undertake ward rounds
* Performing outpatient clinics
* Training/Supervising staff
* Partaking in the on call rota as well as the medical on call rota
