    Consultant in Rheumatology - York, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom - Triple West Medical

    Default job background
    Description

    We have been assigned by one of the UK's more prestigious NHS Trusts to help them recruit a Consultant in Rheumatology on either a Substantive or an NHS Fixed Term basis for 12 months to join their successful Medicine department.

    Our client's Rheumatology Department offer both inpatient and outpatient services are offered at both sites of the Trust. There are satellite outpatient clinics at one of the smaller sites.

    Rheumatology inpatient facilities are shared with the renal inpatients in Ward 32, away from the main medical and surgical wards.

    There is a GP registrar (StR) and a Rheumatology Specialty Registrar who provide junior doctor cover. The Rheumatology Specialty Registrar may have general medical commitment, which is dependent on the stage of training. The GP registrar is shared between Rheumatology and Dermatology. Day case Rheumatology takes place at Rheumatology Day Unit at the main site.

    Dedicated specialist physiotherapy and occupational therapy staff provide care for outpatients and also advise ward based therapists on care of Rheumatology inpatients.

    The physiotherapists have a hydrotherapy pool for our patients based at DRI. There is sessional input from chiropody and specialist podiatry service. The hospital has a comprehensive orthotics service. There are six specialist nurses (4.2 WTE) across the Trust providing the appropriate dedicated input. They run clinics for disease assessment / management, education, biological therapies, and osteoporosis service. The department at DRI has a computerized system (TAMONITOR), established in October 1999, for monitoring disease modifying drugs.

    This is run, under medical supervision, by the specialist nurses with clerical support allowing safe and cost effective monitoring of the large and growing numbers of patients.

    There are recently updated and agreed shared care protocols in place with the CCG with regards to prescription and monitoring of DMARDs and immunosuppressives.

    A telephone helpline run by specialist nurses provides further support for the patients. There are two DEXA scanners in the Trust, one at DRI and the other at BDGH.

    We provide clinical reports on DEXA results and they are currently reported by Dr Stevens, Dr Al-Khoffash and Dr Ramanath (Care of the Elderly consultant with special interest in osteoporosis).

    The Trusts current metabolic bone and osteoporosis clinic is run at BDGH. However, due to the expanding need there is a plan to develop this service at DRI. There are very good working relationships with the nationally recognised Metabolic Bone Centre at the Northern General Hospital, Sheffield.

    The successful appointee, if interested in osteoporosis, would be able to have their job plan reviewed to help develop the expected metabolic bone service at DRI.

    The post holder will be expected to fulfil various duties within the department, these include:

    provide, with the other Consultant Rheumatologists, continuing responsibility for Rheumatology Services, share responsibility for the Clinical Rheumatology Service, including liaison with Clinicians, other hospital staff and General Practitioners, in the diagnosis and management of Rheumatological disorders, participate with the other Consultant Rheumatologists in the management of the Department, demonstrate a firm commitment to Clinical Governance including participation in effective Clinical Audit and continuing Medical Education, participation in the multidisciplinary team meetings relevant to the post, take joint responsibility for the professional supervision and development of training and non-training grade posts in the department & a wide teaching role within the post, to train medical students, nurses and junior doctors, as they rotate through the department.

    Our client offers the best of both worlds, the attractions of big cities, attractive market towns and the villages, all within easy travelling distance & excellent transport links to big cities such as Birmingham & London along with 2 highly touted international airports.
