Fourth Consultant Clinical Neurophysiologist
This is a post for a fourth Consultant Clinical Neurophysiologist at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The Trust acts as the focus for Neurophysiology services in the whole of Lancashire and South Cumbria. In addition to the 390,000 resident populations of Preston, Chorley and South Ribble, the Trust also provides Neurophysiology services for a wider population of 1.6 million.
This post offers the opportunity to work not only within a high-performing and dynamic team, but also to live in an area with diverse communities and excellent state and private schools, and areas of natural beauty and tourist interests including the Lake District, Fylde Coast, Ribble Valley, the Yorkshire Dales, and the Forest of Bowland. Cities such as Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool are within easy reach.
You will be based at the Royal Preston Hospital and will be expected to have both EMG and EEG sessions. There will be a commitment to both adult and paediatric neurophysiology.
The department has an Intra-operative Monitoring Service which is mainly run by the Clinical Physiologists but may require Consultant input periodically. Development of Video-telemetry service is still under consideration.
