An opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist with an interest in supporting and developing the Maternal Medicine Service at Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is available.
If successful, you will join an existing team of 12 consultants providing a comprehensive Obstetrics & Gynaecology Service to the western part of North Nottinghamshire, particularly the residents of Mansfield, Ashfield, and Newark Districts. There will be an expectation that the post holder will contribute to a 1 in 12 on-call rota, designed to meet the requirement of 60 hours per week consultant presence on the Birthing Unit, but additionally to help meet the recommendations for safe Obstetric care detailed within the Ockenden Report. An ability to provide emergency gynaecology care would be beneficial but not essential, as there will be flexibility offered to the right candidate to work within a hybrid on-call rota should an obstetric-only role be more appropriate to the skill set of the individual.
The main responsibilities of the post will be to further develop and support the provision of excellent antenatal care, particularly in the maternal medicine setting. Additional expertise to complement the existing team of particular interest would be areas of high-risk antenatal care, preterm birth prevention, and risk management/governance.
* Maintenance of the highest clinical standards in the management of patients
* To share knowledge with the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department
* Teaching and training of junior staff and medical students
* To actively participate in both departmental and Trust matters concerning Clinical Governance and audit
* To have responsibility for ensuring active participation in continuing medical education (CME)
* Develop maternal medicine leadership role and service development
