Description

Applications are invited for a full time Physician Associate to support the Liverpool Vascular & Endovascular Service (LiVES) which provides vascular surgical services in North Mersey.

This is a new post which will be based in the hub at the Aintree University Hospital.

The vascular unit consists of 13 consultants, with supporting junior staff. Junior middle grade staff consists of 3 SpRs, 2 Clinical Fellows and a Research Fellow.

The unit supports a full range of arterial and venous work in close collaboration with interventional radiology.

We operate a Consultant of the Week system in which 2 consultants each week are rostered to do ward rounds and deal with acute activity at the hub.

We run a weekly planning meeting attended by all staff to facilitate management of the acute work.

Physician Associates will be expected to work alongside junior doctors and nurses to help deliver high standards of care. Physician Associates will receive close supervision, teaching, training and mentorship to embed core skills, knowledge and competencies.

Physician Associates will provide expert assistance to Medical Workforce in their specialty and the wider multidisciplinary team, and will participate in all aspects of the team's activities as appropriate.

They will be expected to perform delegated duties with a high degree of clinical skill and knowledge and to assist in clinical teaching and supervision of colleagues and students.


Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.


The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.

The Trust runs Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool University Dental Hospital and the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.


It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.
