Main duties of the job
The post holder will be key in ensuring the delivery of high-quality patient care and experience. As a result, we require the post holder to be present in the department aside from their annual leave and approved study leave (and any other unplanned absence as per Trust Policy). Therefore, no local agreement shifts can be undertaken if TOIL is accrued or compensatory rest is required within these hours.
