  Job summary

  An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Staff Grade/ Clinical Fellow to complement our established and experienced Breast Radiology team.

  North Tees hospital houses a modern, purpose built breast unit where radiologists and surgeons work jointly to ensure as much of a one stop service as is possible. The unit has an excellent reputation for high quality patient care and we are proud of the first class breast imaging service the Trust provides covering the population of East Durham, Stockton on Tees, Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and surrounding areas.

  Main duties of the job

  The successful candidate will undertake a minimum of 5 PAs of breast radiology. Candidates who wish to work entirely within Breast Radiology or those who wish for a more mixed Breast/General Radiology role will be considered. Duties of the General Radiology role would include participation in the general radiology on call service (currently 1:12), supported by overnight outsourcing (Nighthawk). There is no requirement to perform complex intervention (such as nephrostomy) out of hours. Candidates employed wholly within Breast Radiology will not be expected toparticipate in out of hours provision.

  The General Radiology service is well equipped, with modern facilities including multiple Dual and Single Source Siemens CT scanners, 3T and 1.5T MRI scanners, SPECT-CT and recently upgraded ultrasound facilities. Philips (Carestream) PACS was installed in 2020 and regional image sharing via a Global Worklist is expected to go live in early 2022. Fully specified home workstations are provided for general radiologists to support insourcing and home working.

  About us

  South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust now form University Hospitals Tees and as such you may be required to work at any site across both Trusts.

  We will support staff through providing an inclusive and supportive workplace with health and well-being initiatives, staff benefits and opportunities for personal and professional development. Staff recognition is very important to us; as well as performance reviews and appraisals, we recognise staff through Star and Team of the month, colleague recognition - a note of thanks, Managers Awards, Shining Stars and Service Awards.

  We support the Making Every Contact Count approach to behaviour change in the promotion of health and wellbeing of individuals and communities.

• About the company

  National Health Service (NHS) is the umbrella term for the publicly-funded healthcare systems of the United Kingdom (UK). The founding principles were that services should be comprehensive, universal and free at the point of delivery—a health service based on clinical need, not ability to pay. Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, free at the point of use for people ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom apart from dental treatment and optical care.
