''Creating a great place to be cared for and a great place to work''

University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay has a firm commitment to strengthening the diversity of our workforce, and therefore welcome and encourage applications from likeminded people who can support our ambition to become effortlessly inclusive. We are particularly keen to hear from protected groups – including BAME, LGBT+ and people with a disability.


Trosolwg o'r swydd

An opportunity has arisen for Consultant Geriatricians within our Frailty services at Royal Lancaster Infirmary working across our Frailty Intervention Team and wider Frailty Services. 

This role is an exciting opportunity for you to be part of a developing  model of care for the Morecambe Bay population living with frailty.

The Frailty Intervention Team pathway works on a “early intervention, better outcomes” philosophy with a focus to returning patients to their usual place of residence on the same day as presenting in the Emergency Department where appropriate.  

The Frailty Intervention Team is a developing team with approval for further MDT roles which, with successful recruitment, will become 7 day Frailty service.

As the service develops, it will continue to build strong links with our community services and establish formal links with pre-hospital urgent and emergency care services to offer direct referrals. 

This is an exciting time for our services and we hope you will want to play a part in developing a gold standard service which will achieve our aim of delivering excellent care in the Morecambe Bay area for our Frail and older patients

Application for this substantive post will only be accepted if you are in the process of obtaining your CCT/CSER within six months of interview. Fixed term positions may be offered with a view to the substantive post upon obtaining your CCT/CSER

The trust is committed to negotiating a suitable relocation package.

 

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

The successful appointee will be expected to:

  • Undertake patient assessments for Frail & Older patients attending the emergency department to help patients return to their normal place of residency at the earliest opportunity
  • Provide care for acutely unwell, frail patients on the AFU
  • Review appropriate patients classed as Outliers
  • Contribute to service development and quality improvement
  • Provide leadership and work as part of and develop our team

You will ensure, with Consultant colleagues that the department provides an effective 7 day service, within national and local standards. This would mean each consultant would be doing a 1:5 weekend shift in our Frailty Intervention Team service.

You will join in the running of the Department, and share the management of patients under the care of the team, in order to help achieve national key performance indicators relevant to geriatric medicine.

The appointment will be for 10 programmed activity sessions which would include direct clinical care and supporting professional activity. The number of programmed activities may be negotiated down or up.
