Job Description:
Applications are invited for a full-time Consultant in Stroke Medicine with a maintained interest in a parent specialty if desired.
We are recognised as one of the leading NHS Foundation Trusts in the UK, providing services to nearly 700,000 adult patients every year. The Trust is a regional centre for cancer, trauma, burns & plastics and has the largest solid organ transplantation programme in Europe.
It is one of the most consistently high performing trusts in the NHS and has been rated excellent for both financial management and for quality of clinical and non-clinical services by the Care Quality Commission.
The Trust provides traditional secondary care services to the South, Central and East Birmingham catchment area. Specialist tertiary care is provided across the West Midlands and a proportion of the Trust's activity is provided to patients who are referred from outside the region.
Stroke Medicine has reconfigured in the region and UHB is now one of the largest units in the country with approximately 1600 stroke admissions a year coming through the HASU at the new Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham. It is an active thrombolysis centre with good research links and a thrombectomy service for acute ischaemic stroke. The post may include shared care of the stroke rehabilitation ward at Moseley Hall Hospital or work in the Acute Stroke Unit at Birmingham Heartlands Hospital.
