Key job responsibilities 
 
DUTIES
 
The appointee will be expected to fulfil the following duties with the agreed Job Plan. 
 
 
Clinical
 
A full range of Ophthalmology emergency and elective patients are admitted to Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust and the appointee will be responsible for the management of those patients admitted under his/her care.
 
Provision with Consultant colleagues of a comprehensive elective and emergency Ophthalmic service.
 
Provision of reciprocal cover for periods of leave.
 
Continuing responsibility for the care of patients in his/her charge and the proper functioning of the department.
 
These duties are subject to review from time to time in the light of the changing requirements of the service.  If alterations to the described duties are required these will be mutually agreed between the appointee, his/her consultant colleagues, and the Trust.
 
The person appointed will be required to devote substantially the whole of his/her time to the duties of the post and give them priority at all times.
 
 
Governance and Audit
 
Each consultant is expected to take an active role in clinical governance activities including (but not restricted to) clinical audit, incident reporting, review of complaints, risk management, Continuing Professional Development (CPD) and Evidence-Based Practice. Each directorate has a Consultant Clinical Governance lead.  
 
 
Teaching
 
Both main campuses of the Trust are major centres for undergraduate and postgraduate education and teaching.  The successful candidate will be expected to play a significant role in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching.
 
The Trust works to ensure the best possible placements and training for both undergraduates and junior doctors and to ensure consultant trainers & teachers are developed and supported. The Trust facilitates this through agreeing appropriate job plans, a clear framework for the delivery of medical education, and the opportunity to enhance clinical and teaching skills through CPD.
 
 
Research 
 
The Trust has extremely close links with Nottingham University and has academic departments in the majority of its clinical specialties. There are University and Trust research facilities. The Trust has a research strategy and management framework which aligns its funding for research with the research and innovations activities it supports. Consultants who wish to undertake research require the approval of the Trust R&I Department and relevant ethical approval and must adhere to the National Framework for Research Governance.
 
 
Other Duties as Agreed
 
The appointee may wish to take on other roles alongside their clinical role.  Any positions offered by bodies outside the Trust, (e.g. Training Programme Director, Regional College Advisor, Royal College Representative etc,) must be discussed and agreed by the Head of Service in advance of the position being accepted, so that the impact upon the specialty can be fully considered and any job plan amendments undertaken should the additional role be accepted.
