Trosolwg o'r swydd
This post is for 12 months as a Locum on Trust terms and conditions and has the potential to be made permanent.
The main priority for this post will be to deliver the highest clinical standards in the practice of orthopaedic hand conditions. The post holder will contribute to the hand trauma rota and develop high quality research in trauma & elective orthopaedic hand surgery. The post holder will be provided with a mentor for a period of 1 – 2 years.
The successful candidate will be joining the hand unit in a busy Major Trauma Centre. The hand unit at The James Cook University Hospital is staffed by orthopaedic and plastics hand surgeons. We run an integrated hand trauma on call rota on a 1 in 6 week on call basis. There is no orthopaedic general trauma commitment. The hand trauma clinics are split into virtual and face to face clinics and these feed into regular hand trauma lists. It would be expected that the new consultant would be involved in cross site working between James Cook Hospital, Middlesbrough, The Friarage Hospital in Northallerton and Redcar Primary Care Hospital.
A new surgical hub is currently being constructed at the Friarage Hospital in Northallerton and is planned to open in April 2025. This will provide an environment for high volume low complexity work of which hand surgery will be a part.
