Consultant in Obstetrics

Applications are invited for a replacement, substantive Consultant post to increase expertise in High Risk Obstetrics & Delivery Suite management within the Trust and to provide leadership and innovation within the Directorate of Maternity & Perinatal Medicine.

All maternity services are provided at City Hospital, delivering approximately 5000 women per year, where there is a large level 2+ NNU and full capability to provide HDU and ITU care to our mothers. There is a nationally recognized co-located midwifery-led birthing unit.

The Fetal Medicine Unit was newly developed and equipped in 2010 and provides a full range of FM diagnostic and screening services. The unit has well established links to allied regional services. Antenatal care is based on a specialist multidisciplinary clinic model with clinics being staffed by dual consultants. Consultants also work with specialist midwives and community midwifery leads in teams where this promotes better access to and contact with hard-to-reach groups to ensure equal access to high quality obstetric care.

Applicants are required to have CCT or equivalent and entry on the GMC Specialist Register in Obstetrics and Gynaecology; full GMC registration, MRCOG (or equivalent) and RCOG ATSM qualification in Advanced Labour Ward practice (or equivalent) are essential. Accredited training in other obstetric ATSMs and emergency obstetric training (PROMPT/MOET) is desirable
