Job Advert
This post is based in both the Royal Alexandria Hospital (RAH), Paisley and the Neonatal Unit at the Royal Hospital for Children (RHC), Glasgow.
The successful applicant will work alongside a core group of neonatal consultants who provide weekday service and on-call in the neonatal unit at RAH. A larger group who also work in the Royal Hospital for Children also contribute to this non-resident overnight and weekend on-call.
The post also includes clinic sessions, delivered both virtually using Attend Anywhere/ NearMe and as face-to-face appointments in the RHC outpatient department.
Contribution to the resident consultant rota in RHC is by way of weekday service, acute receiving shifts covering new referrals and deliveries, resident night shifts and weekend cover.
The allocation of these shifts is subject to job planning prior to commencement of the post.
The successful candidates will have or be within 6 months of obtaining a CCT in neonatal medicine or equivalent. Ideally they will also have a special interest within neonatology which complements those of the current post holders, and that they will be committed to developing neonatal services in Greater Glasgow and Clyde. It is anticipated that the post will have a significant role in providing neonatal care to the RAH, with additional duties in the neonatal consultant intensive care rota at RHC allowing continued exposure to complex neonatal patients.
