We have an exciting opportunity within Emergency Medicine here at Colchester Hospital. We are looking for a new Consultant to join our team in the Emergency Department to extend our Consultant Team.
At ESNEFT, there is significant scope for motivated Consultants to take a lead in shaping the future of emergency care on both a local and regional level.
The role is a full-time position which will include on-call commitment. We encourage independent thinking and the chance to develop a portfolio career.
The Trust will support Consultants in developing a special interest within Emergency Medicine such as Academic Emergency Medicine, Paediatric Emergency Medicine, Trauma, Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine (PHEM), and Emergency Ultrasound.
Successful candidates will have the opportunity to enjoy the variety of clinical practice that comes from working in a busy district general hospital whilst developing their own special interest both clinically and non-clinically. You will be responsible, along with the other Consultants, for developing and maintaining the high standard of care we provide to our patients. This post will be part of the full Emergency Department Consultant rota.
All consultants in the department have a continuing and individual responsibility for the care of patients in their charge and a general responsibility to provide, in conjunction with their colleagues, an effective service to meet the needs of local people within the resources available.
The Postholder Will:
* Work with colleagues to provide a Consultant-led and Consultant-delivered service.
* Develop care pathways and clinical protocols involving all relevant parties.
* Collaborate and promote close working links with colleagues, other specialties, and primary care.
* Offer educational, clinical support, and leadership to junior medical colleagues, nursing colleagues, and other members of the team.
* Provide a role model of professional leadership, which underpins the corporate values and behaviours agreed by the organisation.
* Ensure that junior doctors' training conforms to College requirements.
