Consultant Gastroenterologist interest in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Job Plan To be discussed & agreed with CD on appointment. The job attracts 10 programmed activity sessions (DCC 7.5 including 0.5 PA for weekend working; 1.5 core SPA+1 additional SPA depending on individual job plan) with 3% uplift on call supplement for undertaking gastroenterology on call commitments. Job plans within the department are flexible. When all the appointments are in post, there will be a rotational system (1 in 8) with time on and off the wards. During the time on the ward (2 weeks with weekend working in the middle), all outpatient and endoscopy activity will be cancelled to concentrate in managing the wards with daily ward rounds (3 ward rounds & 2 board rounds (4 DCC), covering emergencies & ward referrals (2 DCC). The typical weekly job plan while off the wards would consist of a mix of OPD sessions and endoscopy sessions (max 6 DCC). Four of these sessions will be regular fixed sessions with 1-2 flexible sessions to ensure we are able to backfill & prevent loss

of direct clinical care due to colleagues absence. The schedule is published six or more weeks in advance. The rest of the DCC is dedicated to patient related admin and specialty interest.
