LAS ST3+ in Diabetes and Endocrinology
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 29 day(s) ago
Reference: 2302201
Job summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Diabetes & Endocrinology department as a LAS Speciality Registrar (ST3+ level) from October 2026 to February 2027.
Diabetes and Endocrinology is a diverse speciality that offers integration between basic biochemistry, human physiology and practical medicine. It is a largely outpatient-based speciality that many doctors have limited exposure to early in their career, yet these are conditions that affect every spectrum of society. You will work with various patient groups such as young adults, pregnant women and the elderly population, as well as with many other disciplines and specialities.
The post would be ideal for individuals considering or completing IM3 training. Whether you are considering a career in D&E, just want to gain experience at better managing these diverse conditions or further hone your skills in GIM before commencing further training, this post is a unique opportunity to learn about the holistic multidisciplinary medical care. The post will build in opportunities for individuals to carry out audit, service improvement, research etc. based on the training needs of the individual and will give candidates a clear advantage over competitors when it comes to applications for specialty training posts in the future.
Main duties of the job
The clinical duties will include looking after inpatients admitted under the diabetes and endocrine directorate. Based on the level of the individual's experience, they will also be expected to review inpatient referrals to D&E, under the supervision of a dedicated consultant. There will also be a mixture of outpatient clinics, again dependant on the individual's level of experience. Appropriate training will be provided to enable the individual to take up these roles.
There is also a regular Acute General Medicine on-call commitment, including nights and weekends.

The Directorate currently has facilities located on both RHH and NGH sites, with a bed complement of around 64 beds at the NGH site.

The department works very closely and collaboratively with Sheffield CCG and there is a fully integrated community diabetes service.
There is a philosophy and culture of innovation within the department and the service has won multiple national awards in recent years. It is one of a handful of directorates that holds academic status and has an international reputation in research, particularly in the fields of hypoglycaemia, structured education and neuropathy.
The Endocrinology Department leads the Sheffield ENETS European Neuroendocrine Tumour Service, one of 10 in the UK, and provides local, regional and national services for patients with general and specialist endocrine disease. There is a dedicated investigation unit at RHH, managed by a highly experienced endocrine specialist nursing team who provide comprehensive, specialist outpatient investigation and care.

The referrals to ITP are normally high risk due to low weight and/or rapid weight loss, alongside severe nutritional restriction.

All submissions must be truthful and if you do use AI, it should only be used to enhance your application and not create your supporting statement in its entirety. Your supporting statement should be in your own words and must accurately reflect your personal experience and achievements.

Job summary
The National Patient Safety Team is searching for an exceptional individual who can demonstrate extensive experience in patient safety improvement and outcomes, ideally at regional and national level.
As a member of the team leading the development and implementation of the patient safety incident response framework (PSIRF), you will work on the design, oversight and delivery of national programmes associated with this policy.
Main duties of the job
Based on a strong understanding of quality improvement science, patient safety in healthcare systems, and programme management expertise, the post holder will have a national role in quality and safety improvement associated with PSIRF and will be required to work with a broad range of stakeholders across the system to support appropriate and aligned improvement strategies.
Essential elements of this position include:
Support the planning and delivery of Safety Improvement Programmes, together with stakeholders.
Work jointly with our delivery partners the Health Innovation Network's, 15 regionally based Patient Safety Collaboratives, and ensure programme/project management are aligned with the programmes plans and provide coaching, advice and guidance on quality improvement methodologies and approaches, including measurement for improvement.
Work with Patient Safety Collaboratives to ensure that all reporting is accurate, appropriate and timely and demonstrate the impact and value of the programme, through the assurance process.
About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.

Occupational Therapist - Bromyard Community Hospital
Wye Valley NHS Trust View all jobs
Posted 29 day(s) ago
Reference: 2301968
Job summary
We have a really exciting opportunity as part of a test of change for an experienced Occupational Therapist to join our dynamic, supportive, multi-disciplinary team at Bromyard Community Hospital.
Are you an innovative Occupational Therapist with a passion for improving rehabilitation outcomes and driving new ways of working?
We are seeking a motivated and forward-thinking Occupational Therapist to join our community hospital team to support the development and evaluation of therapy interventions for the Discharge to Assess pathways. This exciting role will focus on demonstrating the impact of earlier therapy involvement, reducing hospital-associated deconditioning, and delivering person-centred rehabilitation that enables patients to achieve their goals and return home sooner.
Working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team, you will help shape and implement evidence-based approaches that maximise patient independence, improve functional outcomes, and support effective patient flow across the healthcare system.
We may consider a band 5 for this position dependent upon level of experience.
Main duties of the job
The Occupational Therapy Service in Community Hospitals aims to develop the patient's optimum level of function and independence in the physical, psychological and social aspects of life, facilitating timely, safe and sustainable discharge.
This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to service transformation and help shape the future delivery of rehabilitation within community hospitals. You will play a key role in demonstrating how earlier therapeutic intervention can improve patient outcomes, reduce deconditioning, enhance patient experience, and support timely discharge and patient flow.
Together, we are committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred rehabilitation that enables people to live as independently as possible and achieve the outcomes that matter most to them.
The focus of this role will be to plan and coordinate the safe discharge home for adults with a range of complex needs, liaising with community services to support a discharge to assess philosophy.
As a service we are proactive in supporting professional development and facilitating service improvement.
About us
Wye Valley NHS Trust is a member of an NHS Foundation Group with South Warwickshire NHS FT , the George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust and Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust.
Located on the border with Wales in the shadow of the Black Mountains, we provide acute and community services across Herefordshire and into parts of Powys and run Hereford County Hospital and the community hospitals in Bromyard, Leominster and Ross-on-Wye.
We are a progressive and forward looking trust with ambitious plans to improve quality and integrate patient pathways through close collaborative working with our partners to deliver the quality of care we'd want for our family and friends.
More than 3,500 people work for the Trust - they tell us it's a great place to work, blending the busyness of a DGH with the benefits of working in a beautiful rural and unspoilt county like Herefordshire.
We can offer a great work-life balance and have a fine tradition of working with staff to help them achieve their full potential.
Russell Hardy, Trust Chairman: "The strength of the Trust is its amazing staff; a great place to work, a great place to develop your career and a great place to reach your potential."
Our values -Care, Accountability, Respect and Excellence - are at the heart of all we do. We believe in providing the right care in the right place at the right time...all the time.
