### Main duties of the job

This post is an opportunity to gain experience in advanced CTO & complex PCI in a high-volume UK centre including all aspects of interventional cardiology. This post would be suitable for a candidate who has a sound basis in PCI and would like to further enhance their skills in CTO & complex PCI prior to application for substantive consultant interventional posts.

For an informal discussion and further information regarding the opportunity and Directorate, please contact:

Professor Mohaned Egred, Consultant Cardiologist on 0191 9330210 or via email at \[email protected\]

Please read attached Job Description and Person Specification.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

Clinical:

The successful appointee will work as part of the PCI team. Typical duties per week will include PCI lab sessions, clinic, administration, and time allocated for audit and research. There will be responsibility for the management of patients undergoing interventional PCI procedures.

Administrative:

Responsibility for recording data from lab patients in local and European databases, writing discharge summaries and communicating with General Practitioners.

Other:

Attendance and participation at the weekly revascularisation MDT meeting, other educational meetings and the relevant quality assurance programme. In addition to research and publications.

Emergency and On-call Responsibilities:

There is no out-of-hours commitment attached to this post. It is not expected that the appointee will take part in the General Cardiology specialty registrar on-call rota but it may be possible to accommodate this if the appointee expressly wishes to do so and has suitable experience. This would involve covering CCU including direct admissions to the PPCI service and other cardiac emergencies. This is a 1:10 rota and is resident. It presently attracts a 2B (50%) supplement.

Education and Training:

The named educational supervisor will discuss the needs of the appointee at the start of the job and review them regularly. The appointee will also receive positive support from the Trust with regard to taking exams or additional qualifications, and will have access to a minimum of 10 days of study leave per year, plus additional days for Trust and (if applicable) MTI induction.

Audit and research activities of the department will be an essential part of this post in addition to teaching opportunities at the University of Central Lancashire. The appointee will be involved as a sub-investigator for on-going research studies in interventional cardiology in the department.

Accountability:

The appointee will be accountable in their clinical duties to the consultants whose patients they are managing in the first instance, to the clinical director of cardiothoracic services and ultimately to the medical director of the trust.

Flexibility:

In line with the Trust’s core value of placing patients at the heart of everything we do, we are developing our service provision to be responsive to the needs of our patients. To meet those needs some staff groups will be increasingly asked to work a more flexible work pattern so that they can offer services in the evening or weekend.  As a result any offer of employment to a consultant post will be subject to you agreeing to work a new more flexible pattern or working in the future if required, including evening and weekend work.
