Consultant Paediatrician with an interest in Paediatric Emergency Medicine Full Time 10PAs (3 posts available) Applications are invited for the post of Consultant Paediatrician with an interest in Paediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM) and the option of additional subspeciality interest in other areas (applicants with an interest in asthma are particularly encouraged to apply). These are substantive full-time posts (10PAs). Part time/job share option will be considered on request. We are looking for innovative and enthusiastic colleagues to join our Paediatric Department. The post will be based primarily in the paediatric ED department with paediatric outpatient DCC activity. The post holder will cover the paediatric emergency department (PED) on a 1:5 rostered basis which includes a rapid access clinic and telephone advice service for local GPs. Outpatient clinics will be part of the timetable during non-PED DCC and there is opportunity for this role to include leading a new paediatric asthma MDT service. Opportunity to develop expertise in other areas of paediatric sub-speciality interest will also be offered. Main duties of the job

The expected job plans will include 8 PAs of DCC activity. Applications will be considered from individuals with a CCT (or within 6 months of CCT date at the time of interview) or with a Certificate of Equivalence of Specialist Registration (CESR). This post will provide collaborative working with Paediatric Emergency Department services and Paediatric Leadership in providing care for Children in ED. These are new posts created to enhance the patient experience for children coming through ED, improve the quality of paediatric emergency care and provide training and supervision for Junior doctors going through training in ED. Once fully recruited we will establish a PEM consultant team consisting of 5 paediatric trained PEM consultants working alongside 2 PEM trained emergency medicine consultants. About us
