Consultant in Intensive Care Medicine

at  North Bristol NHS Trust

The Unit has a strategy for development aligned with the Trust strategy. Briefly this encompasses 5 domains: delivery of exceptional care for patients, investing in the ICU workforce, supporting expanding Trust services, developing the Units Research and Innovation programme, and improving collaboration with both internal and external stakeholders. We are looking for enthusiastic Consultant Intensivists to help deliver this Strategy and enhance Critical Care in Bristol at a pivotal time for the specialty. The ICU is divided into 4 pods of 12 beds, with 2 Simulation bed spaces.
It has excellent adjacencies to the emergency department, 24 operating theatres including a vascular hybrid theatre and another with capability for intra-operative MRI scanning, and 4 interventional radiology suites with both 24-hour Interventional Radiology and Interventional Neuroradiology cover. The post will be based in the ICU and the postholder will have a regular dedicated ICU week and on-call responsibility to the ICU only. The frequency of this commitment will depend upon the wishes of the successful candidate and requirements of the department but will vary from 1 in 4 weeks on ICU (full time ICU) to 1 in 6 weeks on ICU, with the balance of work being made up in anaesthesia or transfer medicine. The ICU is part of the South-West Critical Care Network, and submits its data to ICNARC and ICCQI
