Main Duties and Job Plan Please see the Job Summary section above for a description of the expected duties of the post-holder. The job plan will be fully annualised. Current job planning guidance at St Georges expects consultants to work a minimum of 42 clinical weeks per year. There is flexibility in the number of PA commitments that existing consultants offer to the trust and applicants wishing to work less than 10 PAs are encouraged to apply. The post holder will be required to participate in the NICU consultant on-call rota. There are 2 rotas on each unit that run in parallel. The first, so-called 1st on rota is a seven-day duty period running Monday to Monday, including Saturday and Sunday nights. The 2nd on rota provides for second consultant weekday cover and includes that weekday night. The post holder will have the option of spending a portion of Direct Clinical Care with the Critical Care Outreach service, which provides 7-day a week 07:45 to 17:45 consultant cover. There is also the opportunity to be involved with the SW London Adult Critical Care Transfer Service and the ICU Survivorship Service. There is prospective cover for all rotas, hence the post holder is expected to liaise with their consultant colleagues in providing internal cover for annual, study and professional leave, and this may require some flexibility in the post holders hours. The post holder is expected to be flexible both in terms of session and day of the week for additional ICU clinical and supporting work.
