JSD Higher in Radiology
NHS Medical & Dental: Local Appointment nodal point 4 (MT04)
Sandwell & West Birmingham NHS Trust is a friendly, integrated healthcare provider focused on improving the life chances and health outcomes of our diverse population.
We have three strategic objectives:
People: To cultivate and sustain happy, productive and engaged staff;
Patients: To be good or outstanding at everything we do;
Population: To work seamlessly with partners to improve lives;
We run services from Sandwell, City and Rowley Regis Hospitals, Birmingham & Midland Eye Centre, Birmingham Treatment Centre, the Lyng and Leasowes Intermediate Care Centre. Our GP practices and community teams provide care in schools, healthcare centres and at home.
Our next milestone is opening the Midland Metropolitan University Hospital (MMUH), a once in a career opportunity to shape care transformation within and beyond the hospital walls.
Developing and caring for our People is fundamental. We were one of the first Trusts to provide the Real Living Wage, as well as a Live and Work scheme to support people at risk of homelessness into paid work and training. We offer a range of staff benefits, health & wellbeing support and will help you to bring your ambition to life through our bespoke training and development programmes. As “People” is one of our three strategic objectives, we make a continued commitment to prioritise support for all our colleagues.
Healthcare services have a significant impact on the environment. We are committed to embedding sustainable practices. We expect all colleagues to support the delivery of our Green Strategic Plan and to drive positive changes in their department.
Job overview
This is a 12 month fixed term post and will initially be based primarily at City and Sandwell Hospitals. However the Trust will be reconfiguring its services in preparation for the implementation of the Right Care Right Here Programme and the move to MMUH and the postholder will therefore be required to work at any of the Trust’s sites.
Main duties of the job
1. To provide, with the other doctors in the radiology, routine and emergency radiology specialty services to the Trust, operating a system of mutual out-of-hours cover, and cover for annual, study and professional leave.
2. To liaise with medical staff in other specialties and participate in clinical meetings and postgraduate activities in the Trust.
3. Assessment and initiation of management of patients in radiology under the supervision of Consultant staff.
4. Prompt assessment of patients referred for admission from Emergency Department and general practitioners
Day to day follow-up of patients under the care of the team
Working for our organisation
Our new acute hospital, the Midland Metropolitan University Hospital (MMUH), opens in October 2024 and will provide care to our local population from first class, purpose-built premises. As a result, the base of this role will change to MMUH from 2024 (or beyond). If this is applicable to your role, you will be informed during the recruitment process and continuing your application with this understanding. The development of the new hospital will play an important role in the regeneration of the wider area and in improving the lives of local people and reducing health inequalities.
We have three newly emerging strategic objectives:
- Our People – to cultivate and sustain happy, productive and engaged staff
- Our Patients – to be good or outstanding in everything we do
- Our Population – to work seamlessly with our partners to improve lives
