Job description

Job responsibilities

NLaG is developing and investing in its acute care model. Integrated Acute Assessment Units (IAAU), including Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC), have been in place since 2020. Significant building improvements have taken place; two purpose built Emergency Departments, with a full refurbishment of IAAU. Information systems on the unit have been recently modernised to improve patient care and further initiatives to deliver a full Electronic Patient Record. On site, state of the art diagnostics are available 24/7, with new MRI and CT facilities recently opened. This really is an exciting time to join us.

The aim is to provide a high quality, safe and compassionate service.

There is an excellent modern Development and Education Centre with extensive facilities. The opening of the Hull York Medical School has brought an increase in the number students being taught within the Department. The successful candidate will be expected to take part in the teaching of medical students.

As a Trust we are keen to offer and encourage flexible working opportunities to address health and wellbeing and work-life balance for our employees, this will have a positive impact on the care we provide.

Flexible working is part of a wider commitment to improve the quality and experience of working life and we recognise that it is a key contributor for the recruitment and retention of our employees.

We therefore support and encourage open conversations around a specific working pattern to suit your work-life balance or a multi-role career, if it works for you and works for the role, we'll do our best to make it happen.

Local flexible working arrangements are developed in partnership between the line manager and employee in order to ensure equality of access to flexible working, as far as practicable, regardless of role, shift pattern, team or pay, based on: patient/service user and staff experience, service delivery and work-life balance of colleagues.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a fair and supportive working environment and culture, where contributions are fully recognised and valued by all and staff feel empowered to carry out their duties to the best of their abilities. As employers we are committed to promoting and protecting the physical and mental health and well-being of all our staff. This underpins our values as set out in the NHS Constitution, supports us to be an Employer of Choice and ultimately enables our employees to support the effective care of our patients.

We strongly value the different perspectives and ideas a diverse workforce brings to deliver better outcomes for our patients. We welcome applications irrespective of peoples age, disability, sex, gender identity and gender expression, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, sexual orientation, or other personal circumstances.

In line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Recruitment & Workforce team will use and hold your personal data for the intended purpose and in line with the Recruitment & Workforce Privacy Statement.

We are committed to safeguarding the welfare of children/vulnerable adults and expect the same commitment from all staff and volunteers.

We are looking for a highly motivated colleague with an interest in orthopaedic anaesthesia to provide anaesthesia and peri-operative care for all aspects of orthopaedic surgery.The post is permanent and whole-time, comprising 10 Programmed Activities (PAs): 8.5 PAs of Direct Clinical Care and 1.5 PAs of Supporting Professional Activities (SPA).The post will involve all aspects of peri-operative anaesthetic care for orthopaedic and spinal surgery and the post holder will be expected to:1. Ensure effective and open communication with anaesthetic and surgical colleagues.2. Take part in all aspects of pre-, intra- and post-operative anaesthetic care for both inpatient and day case orthopaedic surgery.3. Demonstrate a degree of flexibility in their working patterns, as demanded by a consultant-based service.4. Take part in the anaesthetic on-call rota. This is currently 1:16, though this may be subject to change.5. Provide in-theatre and formal training for rotating specialist registrars, Anaesthetic Fellows, nurses, ODPs and colleagues.6. Assess patients fitness for surgery within the pre-op clinic, both directly and indirectly by supervising nursing colleagues.

The on-call commitment for the post will be between 1:12 and 1:16 (currently anticipated to be 1:16 but flexible to allow individuals to come off the on-call rota for a variety of reasons if necessary).

There may be opportunities, subject to service need and agreement with collaborating organisations, to maintain and further develop experience in other specialties and acute surgical practice through working arrangements with neighbouring trusts, thereby supporting both individual professional development and wider service resilience.

The vast majority of trauma and emergency work is carried out on scheduled lists, leaving very little out-of-hours work. The on-call team provides anaesthesia for out-of-hours cases and manages the Critical Care Unit. The successful candidate will be expected to live within a reasonable distance of the hospital.
