: The appointee will also contribute to Acute General Medicine (AGM) in 4 week blocks on the Horton +/- JR sites. AGM on both hospital sites has recently undergone reconfiguration with a greater focus of the acute medical teams on Acute Medicine (first 72hrs of care) and Complex Medicine (anticipated LOS >72hrs). The Horton is a District General Hospital in Banbury with an Emergency Department admitting a largely unselected medical take, although some specialist services (e.g. STEMIs, acute general surgery) go directly to John Radcliffe. There is a team of at least 8 general physicians based at the Horton operating a team with ward-based structure, with on-call currently 1 in 8. Unselected acute admissions are around 20/day and inpatients average around 20 (one ward). A consultant is typically supported by a team of doctors comprising an ST3+, CMT/FY2/GPVTS and an FY1. The AGM medical takes at the John Radcliffe Hospital are consultant team based you are oncall with your team (ST3+, CMT/FY2/GPVTS, FY1 and medical students) for every take that you do which is extremely popular with the junior and senior medical staff as it provides a true sense of firm structure. The 24 hour period is split into three takes and the consultant retains the patients who are admitted to the short-stay areas. Patients admitted to the Complex Medicine Units or other specialty wards are handed over to those teams. This maintains continuity for over 75% of all patients as the majority have a length of stay of less than 72hours.

The post-holder's duties will be primarily at the John Radcliffe, Churchill and Horton General Hospitals; however it is a condition of the appointment that the post holder will be willing to work in any of the Trust's locations.

This post will involve diabetes and endocrinology clinics and MDTs, including a specialist Cystic Fibrosis & Diabetes clinic.
