Locum Consultant Diabetologist
NHS Medical & Dental: Consultant
Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, (LGT), is a community-focused provider of local and acute care, delivering high-quality services to over one million people living across the London boroughs of Lewisham, Greenwich, and Bexley. We provide whole-life care and are here to support our communities to live healthier lives as well as taking care of them when they need us the most.
Employing almost 7,500 colleagues, affectionately known as Team LGT, we provide services at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich, University Hospital Lewisham, and at over a dozen community settings in Lewisham. We also provide some services at Queen Mary’s Hospital in Sidcup.
We have recently launched our new vision and values to mark the LGT10 – the tenth anniversary of our Trust forming in 2013. Our trust vision is to be exceptional. In the quality of our patient care; our support for colleagues; and in the difference we make through our partnerships and in our communities.
To achieve this we value Respect, Compassion, and Inclusion; Being accountable over staying comfortable; Listening over always knowing best; and Succeeding together over achieving alone. You can read more about our visions and values here
Our hospitals and community sites provide a wide range of inpatient and outpatient services, as well as emergency and planned care. The Trust is rated as “good” or “outstanding” in over three-quarters of the services inspected by the Care Quality Commission.
Every year our work includes performing 10,000 procedures in our theatres; bringing seven and a half thousand new lives into the world; carrying out 570,000 visits to patients in their homes or communities and providing emergency care for more than 300,000 patients arriving in our busy Urgent and Emergency Departments.
LGT is a centre for the education and training of medical students enrolled with King’s College London’s GKT School of Medical Education. We are a training centre for nurses, midwives and allied health professionals. We are pioneering new roles that will support the changing needs of our patients and are one of the largest employers of physician associates in the country.
We are committed to working with our partners to deliver the best outcomes for our local communities. This means playing an active role in the South East London Integrated Care System (ICS), and in formal partnerships including the South East London Acute Provider Collaborative, provider partnerships with our local mental health trusts and borough-based boards of the ICS in Bexley, Greenwich and Lewisham.
Trosolwg o'r swydd
We are looking to recruit one full time Consultant Diabetologist to cover Maternity leave for 12 months, to develop our local community diabetes services.
They will be based within Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust and spend 50% of their time working in the community across the boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley.
The service will aim to deliver community diabetes clinics, virtual clinics, and primary care MDTs, which involve discussion of complex care patients who have diabetes and other care needs within the multidisciplinary team, with the aim of delivering patient-centred care. The service will work closely with primary care to improve the quality of care across the Bexley
and Greenwich system.
There will also be the opportunity to support any additional specialist interest post holders may have within the acute component of the role.
The acute hospital-based role can be designed around a post holder’s interests to support our existing services in outpatient Type 1 diabetes clinics, pre-conception clinics, gestational diabetes and inpatient diabetes. Alternatively, there is the opportunity to deliver some general medicine work (eg acute medicine on-call) or endocrinology clinics.
