Description

Many of our wards have undergone a full or partial refurbishment in the last 24 months & we have benefitted from the construction of a brand new Paediatric Theatre Reception and Paediatric Recovery area, with plans for an integrated single site Children's Hospital accommodating all Children's services on the Leicester Royal Infirmary site, providing a unique time to come and join our team.

Additionally, the Trust has recently opened a new £42 million Emergency Floor which includes a new Paediatric Emergency Department and a Childrens short stay unit (CSSU).

(this can stay but not all of it is factually accurate such as CSSU)


The Paediatrics surgery specialty serves the population of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, as one of the busiest Acute and General Paediatric centres in the UK.

Our Children's Assessment Unit (CAU) currently sees around 14,000 children a year and this is in addition to the children who attend our Paediatric Emergency Department (PED).

The speciality also provides tertiary level care to children and young people from across the region including areas of Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and Warwickshire.

Outreach clinics and day case operating take place in a number of centres outside of UHL.

The post holders will participate in managing the care of paediatric surgical patients at registrar level.

He/she will be expected to perform clinical and non-invasive assessment of paediatric patients within an acute environment, and will be fully involved in the surgical management of patients including working in theatre, with their supervising Consultant and where appropriate independently,with responsibility for the day to day running of the paediatric surgical wards, planning and implementing clinical management plans under the supervision of the consultant staff and presenting cases at departmental MDT meetings.
