Full job description

We are currently looking for a Colleague to join our small cohesive team at the Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust.

This is an exciting time as we look expand our outpatient service to incorporate a new external clinic and the provision of specialist clinics in neuroinflammation / MS, dystonia, headache and movement disorders. With current clinical neurology practice rapidly evolving we are keen to support the successful candidate in the development of a sub-specialty interest. In addition, there are excellent opportunities available to develop a teaching role through the University of Exeter Medical School (UEMS) and scope for research

We have a fully self-contained Neurophysiology Department providing full EMG / NCS, EEG, ambulatory EEG and visual-evoked potentials. Visiting Consultant Neurophysiologists from Bristol provide a NCS / EMG service, with EEGs reported by an external Neurophysiology Consultant. In-patient video EEG telemetry is available via University Hospitals Plymouth.

With excellent support from radiology colleagues a major upgrade is in progress, which will provide three CT scanners at the Royal Cornwall Hospital and one at West Cornwall Hospital. The Emergency Department scanner provides CT angiography for potential thrombectomy patients and has the facility to undertake perfusion imaging. A new extension to the Trelawny Wing unit will house two 1.5T MRI systems, in addition to the existing MR scanner. Nuclear imaging including DaT and PET scanning is also available on site.

There are currently no neurology inpatient beds, instead we work closely with the medical teams, offering a daily ward liaison service and an acute clinic during the rotating ‘consultant of the week’ service. Our medical day unit is utilised for day-case lumbar puncture and planned infusions.

The team are supported by a Registrar, two MS specialist nurses, two Epilepsy specialist nurses, and a Band 4 Assistant Practitioner who works for both teams. We work closely with a community-based team of Parkinson’s Disease Specialist Nurses, led by a Nurse Consultant.
