    Whipps Cross Older People Services

    Substantive Consultant Ortho Geriatrician

    (Substantive 10 PA)

    Whipps Cross University Hospital, part of the Barts Health NHS Trust Group is looking for 12 full time Substantive Consultant Geriatricians, to join our Older People's Services (OPS) team based predominantly on the Whipps Cross Hospital site.

    The post offers an exciting opportunity to join a growing team and to develop new models of working and services that support all older people attending the hospital and within the local community. Whipps Cross Hospital serves a local population with a high degree of frailty and within the Barts Health Group is being developed to be a centre for Geriatric medicine.

    The posts offer a new opportunity to participate in changing the management of patients with fractured neck of femur and other fragility fractures in North East London. The Orthopaedic strategy within Barts Health is to concentrate fractured neck of femur management at Whipps Cross Hospital leading to an expansion in the workforce required to care for these patients. It is envisaged that one of these post holder/s would be working closely with other clinicians (from Orthopaedics and Anaesthetics) as well as the Multidisciplinary Team.

    This post forms part of the redevelopment of Geriatric Medicine at Whipps Cross Hospital and gives the post-holders a unique opportunity to participate in the redevelopment of the Hospital itself as well as the services we provide.
