Consultants do an evening ward round (4-5pm) on the day they are on call and a post take ward round at 08:00 the following day. On the day after on call, the consultant is responsible for the CEPOD list. The post holder will have no elective commitments when on-call. The emergency take has evolved over time in both volume and complexity. GI surgery provides a subspecialist upper and lower GI take with patient transfer between teams. We have a co-located medical and surgical SDEC unit. The surgical SDEC unit includes other surgical specialties such as urology and neurosurgery.

Each consultant will do regular week-day on-call with average 1 in 8 frequency and weekend on-call of 1 in 12. These frequencies are subject to changes with new appointments. On-call day to include SDEC and the CEPOD list on the following day. This model will be reviewed at 6-12 months.
