We are currently looking for a Specialty Doctor in Respiratory Medicine at the William Harvey Hospital, Ashford to work in the newly established Respiratory Assessment Day Unit.
We are a friendly, motivated and supportive department providing a variety of respiratory services and we are proud that we provide a high quality, patient focused service to the local population.
The appointee will be responsible for communication and liaison with other medical and service departments within the hospital and with general practitioners and other agencies, such as district nursing and Social Services.
The appointee will be expected to cover for absence of colleagues (including on call cover) at short notice, e.g. sickness. Cover outside the Rota requiring extra hours of work will be paid as additional work at nationally agreed rates and will be coordinated to be compliant with the relevant legislation.
