Main duties of the job
The post holder will join a busy and well-functioning team. Although all aspect of ENT will be covered by the post holder the main duties of this post will be to support the delivery of our recovery plan by undertaking clinics and independent theatres lists.
With regards to the provision of the service, the post holder will share with the other Consultants, and Specialty Doctors in the assessment and treatment of ENT A&E referrals in the “Hot Clinics” and other GP referrals by providing high quality patient care from the point of admission to discharge, with a particular emphasis of helping to meet waiting list targets and current challenges. The case-mix will cover all aspects of Core ENT surgery with the clinics being a mixture of core and subspecialty clinics where you will be supported by the consultant.
Some sessions might be worked flexibly to allow for early evening or cross-site working site to facilitate patient focused care and optimise use of the post holder’s skills adequately.
Working for our organisation
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across northeast London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
