It is envisaged that the new Consultant will assume direct clinical role within the department and share responsibilities with the other Consultants. Practitioners will be expected in the normal run of their duties, to deputise for short term absence for their colleagues as far as is practicable both in clinical and managerial capacities. When deputising is not practicable, the Department shall be responsible for engaging locums, but the practitioner shall have the responsibility of brining the need to their notice. The senior medial staff hold a pivotal position in the department and must be committed to taking it forward.
Clinical duties will be shared with the present consultants and will include all duties normally expected in any major Emergency Department in the UK; however a proportion of direct clinical duties will be delivered at the Major Trauma Centre Emergency Department at James Cook University Hospital. The duties will normally be based at the University Hospitals of North Tees and will include support for the Tees Valley Urgent Care Service.
South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust now form University Hospitals Tees and as such you may be required to work at any site across both Trusts.
At North Tees & Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust our main priority is, and always will be, to provide safe and high quality care to our patients every day; the kind of care we would want for ourselves and our loved ones. We want our organisation to be the best place to work with the right staff, in the right roles, at the right time, to ensure we deliver exceptional patient care and experience.
We will support staff through providing an inclusive and supportive workplace with health and well-being initiatives, staff benefits and opportunities for personal and professional development. Staff recognition is very important to us; as well as performance reviews and appraisals, we recognise staff through Star and Team of the month, colleague recognition – a note of thanks, Managers Awards, Shining Stars and Service Awards.
We support the Making Every Contact Count approach to behaviour change in the promotion of health and wellbeing of individuals and communities.
We recruit for values and “Together we are North Tees & Hartlepool”.
