apartmentEast and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust placeStevenage calendar_month 
It is expected that the applicant will complement an existing department offering a full gastroenterology service, please see job plan. Across the trust the care of gastroenterology inpatients is centralised at the Lister site with consultants currently involved in a 1 in 12 GI bleeding rota which incorporates a 24/7 bleed service and some routine endoscopy at weekends whilst on-call.

The post does not include a regular commitment to the general medical on-call rota but please note the pandemic has meant

some involvement in general medical care of patients.
  • Maintenance of high quality patient centred care
  • Shared responsibility for the day to day management of the
service and participation in strategic planning
  • Teaching and training within the multidisciplinary service
  • Active involvement in multidisciplinary team meetings and
directorate clinical governance activity
  • Active participation in continuing medical education

At East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.

We run the following hospitals:
  • The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
  • New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
  • Hertford County, Hertford
  • Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood

We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.

We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. This means that any employee is entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns and we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made and considered formally, and will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.

In the paragraphs above you have read an overview about the role we would like to offer and general information about main duties of the post holder.
