Job description

Job responsibilities

The Cardiology department also undertakes a high volume of standard cardiac investigations including diagnostic coronary angiography, exercise tolerance testing, Holter monitoring, event recorders, AliveCor mobile phone app based monitoring and ambulatory BP monitoring.

Northumbria provides out-patient cardiology across three main sites, assessing the broad range of cardiology presentations, in addition to peripheral clinics across the region to improve access for patients at the edges of the catchment. We have nurse led clinics in rapid access chest pain and post-acute coronary syndrome. We have an integrated heart failure specialist nursing service across primary and secondary care providing an exceptional, patient-centred care. There is an active and well-reviewed cardiac rehabilitation service attached to the trust. These staff are supported by regular MDTs where the teams get together to plan correct management of patients in line with national guidance.

In-patient cardiology embraced a new and exciting phase with the opening of the UKs first specialist emergency care hospital, within Northumbria on a new site at Cramlington in June 2015. The Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital (NSECH) is the point of access to specialist care for our patients, and the consultant team deliver comprehensive management of these patients from their initial assessment and treatment until either early discharge, or transfer to the base hospital for further care. The 6 bed coronary care unit at NSECH allows for the optimal management of those unstable patients presenting with acute cardiology problems.

The team have a ward at Wansbeck Hospital for on-going management of more complex patients. The opening of the hospital and change in the delivery of acute cardiac care has been associated with significant improvements in outcomes for both ACS and patients with acute heart failure.

Northumbria has an active pacing service, including a commissioned service for complex devices, including Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT), and implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) with regional referrals coming from Cumbria. NHCT was the first DGH service to develop standard bradycardia pacing in the early 1990s and has an excellent record in this field. The device lab is sited at NSECH to facilitate prompt in-patent pacing. There is an active specialist nurse and physiologist delivered implantable (injectable) loop recorder programme.

The post holder will be expected to work as a member of a Trust wide cardiology team working across the trust to provide excellent patient care.

Job description

Job responsibilities

The service manages approximately 1,100 stroke admissions annually. On a typical day, the stroke team assesses around three new stroke admissions, two to three stroke mimics and two to three high-risk TIA presentations.

Our dedicated Hyperacute Stroke Unit (HASU) at NSECH comprises 11 monitored beds and serves as the regional front door for acute stroke assessment and treatment. Patients are typically managed within the HASU for 24 to 48 hours before transfer to one of the Trusts Stroke Recovery Units. During HASU weeks, the post holder will provide resident consultant cover between 08:00 and 20:00, with overnight on-call support from home. Supported by our highly experienced 24/7 Stroke Nurse Practitioner team, the consultant will provide senior clinical leadership for the assessment and management of patients presenting with suspected stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA).

Within each HASU shift, the post holder will oversee the care of all inpatients within the unit, supported by resident medical staff and aPhysician Associate, while working closely with Stroke Nurse Practitioners to assess patients presenting through the Emergency Department. The service benefits from rapid access to comprehensive neurovascular imaging, including CT, CT angiography (CTA), CT perfusion (CTP), MRI and carotid Doppler ultrasound, enabling timely diagnosis and treatment decisions.

Outside HASU commitments, the post holder will provide consultant leadership on one of the Trusts Stroke Recovery Units, supporting the delivery of high-quality inpatient stroke care and rehabilitation within a well-established multidisciplinary team. Neurovascular outpatient activity takes place across the Trusts base sites and includes both rapid-access assessment and longer-term follow-up for patients recovering from stroke and TIA. Each Stroke Recovery Unit is supported by resident medical staff and an experienced multidisciplinary team, ensuring comprehensive, patient-centred care throughout the recovery pathway.

The post will be flexibly time-tabled to meet the demands of the service and the timing of sessions may change as the service develops.

A typical week would consist of 10 Programmed Activities (PAs), including an allocation of 1.5 for Supported Professional Activities (SPAs). Additional SPAs will be available for extra managerial, teaching, research or educational supervision activities, dependent upon service need and negotiated through job planning. Weekend duties are included in the 10 PAs and result in the equivalent time off in lieu. Weekend HASU working is shared equitably across the consultant team and operates in line with the established weekday model. Overnight on call from home is remunerated by the higher band (5%) intensity payment. A proposed job plan has been outlined in Appendix 2 and will be agreed on commencement of appointment.
