There's never been a more exciting time to build your career at Frimley Health, one of the country's largest and most respected trusts

Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust (FHFT) has an outstanding reputation and a proud record of achievement.

We have an ongoing commitment to improving the health and care services for the 900,000 people we serve across Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey and south Buckinghamshire.

We continue to invest in our services and facilities, including a £10 million upgrade to the hospital maternity unit as well as £49m major new Emergency Assessment Centre on our Wexham Park site.

The opening of a brand new £100m state of the art hospital which replaced the existing hospital facility at Heatherwood and are planning to invest further in diagnostics and inpatient capacity at Frimley Park.

We have also made significant investment in our quality improvement and digital programmes to support our vision and we will ensure that we achieve our aim of providing the highest quality healthcare to our patients.

Our new EPR - Epic - went live in June and we are already beginning to reap the benefits of this ambitious investment.

Our three core values, and the behaviours that support them, guide everything we do and set out what we expect of our staff in the way they treat patients, visitors, service users and each other.

If you have a passion for clinical excellence, patient care and your own career development, you'll feel at home at Frimley Health.

Participate in morning trauma meeting and (when on-call) evening handover.
On ward cover, arrive at 07:45 for handover and a morning ward round of all patients, ensuring the action plan from the handover is carried out and that there is proper daily documentation in the notes and adherence to VTE and MRSA prophylaxis protocols. Answer all ward calls and attend as required. Maintain an updated inpatient list.
On theatre days, carry out preoperative patient review with your team and assist with surgery, documentation and ensure the postoperative plan is followed. Review your postoperative patients that are staying overnight.
You will be supernumerary in outpatient clinics for your education purposes but may be asked to assist with documentation or requesting investigations.
When on-call, take A&E and external referrals and those from other departments, review them and formulate a management plan with senior input. Maintain an updated patient database.
When not on ward cover, oversee management of your consultant's inpatients (delegating tasks to ward cover). Discharge summaries should be released on the day of discharge by the ward cover but may be prepared in advance by the patient's own team.
