Description

This is an exciting opportunity for beginning the expansion of emergency provision at the Cumberland Infirmary and West Cumberland Hospital.

We recognise the need to invest in our staff and support specialist skill development.

You will have excellent clinical skills and the ability to lead on the shop floor. You will be expected to be active in the teaching and supervision of all multi-disciplinary staff.

We wish to continue to build our reputation as well as advancing standards of clinical care that are at the cutting edge of our specialty.

We are looking for applicants who will contribute towards this and who will help us to drive the development of modern emergency care in our local health community.

Your job will have variety and challenge delivering care between our two unique hospital sites.

You will find a great balance of a busy extended Trauma Unit seeing a case mix of complex major trauma being distant from our Regional Major Trauma Centre and you will also work in a rural setting with the ability to develop extended clinical skills and lead an established composite workforce.

The Cumberland Infirmary site has annual footfall of approximately 55'000 pts per year (11,000 Paeds cases). The department has a co-located OOH GP service run by Cumbria Health On Call (CHOC). We run an active Clinical fellowship programme and our trainee ACP programme has received national acclaim.

Three of the Consultants contribute to the NHS England Clinical Educator programme, and other Consultant interests include Paediatric Emergency Medicine, Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine and Education/Simulation.

At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding hospital and health services to half a million people.

Established on 1st October 2019, the Trust is creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout north Cumbria and beyond.

We're responsible for delivering over 70 services across 15 main locations and we employ more than 6,500 members of staff.

Our 5 key principles demonstrate our belief in the delivery of 'safe, high quality care every time'.

Being a clinically led organisation
Quality and safety at the heart
A positive patient experience every time
A great place to work
Managing our money well

As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.

Please see attached Job description and person specification for further information regarding the role and the essential and desirable criteria required to be met by applicants.

Please note:

You must be on the Specialist Register in order to be eligible for appointment to this level of post.

Recruitment Premia Available

A payment of 10% increase in your starting salary, maintained every year for the duration of the recruitment premium (maximum 4 years); this sum remains at this value, and does not get re-calculated if the employee rises to a higher value salary on the incremental scale.

Relocation assistance of up to £8,000 may be available for successful applicants moving to the region.
