University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust
Directorates of Medicine University Hospitals Dorset (both RBCH and PGH sites) We are looking to appoint 2 new colleagues to the Gastroenterology Department at University Hospitals Dorset, resulting from the merger between the Royal Bournemouth Hospital (RBH) and Poole General Hospital (PGH). These are new permanent posts for two full-time (10PA with option of 11th) consultants gastroenterologists, though applicants wishing to work flexibly or less than full-time will be considered. Sub-specialist interests such as hepatology, IBD or nutrition would be desirable but not essential and any sub-specialty interest would be considered. ERCP/EUS is not required for these posts. It is essential that any applicant is highly competent and independent in therapeutic endoscopic management of GI bleeding and able to manage a wide variety of complex inpatient gastroenterology. Accreditation in General Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology is essential. Main duties of the job
The successful candidates will be joining a team of 8 Consultants at the PGH site and 15 consultants at the RBH site with a wide range of specialist interests including IBD, hepatology, ERCP/EUS and upper GI therapeutics. There are also 3 middle-grade staff, 7 WTE IBD nurses, 5 WTE liver nurses, 2 WTE Iron deficiency anaemia nurses and one WTE research nurse. The merged gastroenterology department is one of the largest units in the South of England with high volume endoscopy well in excess of 25,000 procedures per annum, including specialist complex endoscopy. The merged unit will also allow for greater development of sub-specialty interests, whilst maintaining skills and expertise in general gastroenterology. Joining the department offers an exciting and unique opportunity to be involved in the re-design of gastroenterology services. About us
Our values define who we are as #TeamUHD. They underpin everything we do now and in the future. They define how we treat our patients, visitors, and each other, our valued teammates and colleagues. UHD are investing in services across the Trust, with many being transformed and developed following merger and the New Hospital Programme. This means that some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or long term. Recruiting Managers interviewing for this role will be happy to answer any specific questions that you have at interview. There is a planned move of this service expected during
2025
as part of our Transformation Programme - this role and base of work will relocate to
cross site, Bournemouth and Poole Hospital.
