SalaryNHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
Are you looking for a job in Emergency Medicine that treats you as an asset rather than simply a name on a rota?
Are you looking for a job that gives you the opportunity to develop your CV and skills with equivalent of a day a week of non-clinical time?
If you are tired of inflexible rotas, fixed annual leave and roles that provide little work/life balance then an Emergency Medicine CDF post in Ayrshire may be just the opportunity you are looking for.
The appointment will be whole time for the duration of 12 months commencing 7 August 2024 with time spent in both Ayr and Crosshouse Emergency departments. With respect to the clinical hours to be delivered, these posts will be unique in the West of Scotland as successful candidates will have access to an online and mobile phone application which will enable them to manage their own shift pattern. Healthrota software will allow individuals to self-roster their clinical time, choose leave and facilitate easy exchange of shifts therefore providing the opportunity for a much greater work/life balance. Annual leave is not fixed to certain weeks of a rota pattern.
Both University Hospital Crosshouse and University Hospital Ayr have received Good Practice Recognition from the 2023 NHS Education for Scotland Deanery Quality Review Panel. In recent years the time spent with us has allowed many our fellows to go on and successfully gain entry onto a wide range of training programs in various different specialities.
Successful applicants will be assigned a consultant as clinical supervisor. There will be numerous opportunities to undertake teaching and Quality improvement activities in an environment that supports and fosters innovation. Successful applicants will be expected to contribute to a weekly departmental teaching programme. A study budget of £1250 is available towards completion of courses and attendance at study days.
A 50% pay supplement will be paid to recognise contribution to out of hours working and emergency duty commitments, and will be based on a salary range of £40,995 - £64,461. The posts are not recognised for training. Applicants must hold Full GMC Registration with a current Licence to Practice and have 12 months paid NHS Experience.
Prospective applicants are encouraged to make contact with Dr Allan Burt, Consultant Emergency Medicine, University Hospital Crosshouse (01563 827751 or allan.burt@aapct.scot.nhs.uk).
Interviews are Scheduled for April 22nd and 23rd.
