Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
Are you looking for a job in a friendly department in a high performing Trust? Come and work with us! The Chelsea and Westminster Hospital Foundation Trust wishes to appoint a Locum Consultant Neurologist for General Neurology.
Applicants are invited to join a dynamic and forward-looking Neurology department. The successful candidate will join a close West Middlesex team of four neurology consultants and be part of the larger cross site department.
The appointee will provide inpatient and outpatient services in a busy, but well-supported hospital.
Main duties of the job
The neurology clinics at both sites are run on the ABN template with 30 mins for a new patient and 15 mins for a follow-up. At West Middlesex University Hospital, there is a daily (Monday - Friday) consultant delivered referral service with variable referrals ranging from 1-5/day. The indicative job plan contains time for cross cover with ward referrals relating to consultant leave and will require flexibility from the appointee to help deliver this.
Job responsibilities
A provisional timetable denoting the allocation of fixed/non-fixed commitments is for Direct Clinical Care (DCC) 8.0 and Supporting professional activities (SPA) 2.0. The job plan will be subject to change in the future, subject to the needs of the service and in consultation with the post-holder.
The post will initially attract 2.0 SPAs. These are provided for personal CME/CPD, service development, audit, M&M, departmental meetings, mandatory training, appraisal, revalidation, and medical student teaching. At the first annual job plan review, the SPA allocation will be reviewed in line with Trust Policy.
