About the role: Specialist Registrar Neurology

You can work as many hours as you would like each week, with no minimum or maximum expectation, and you can decide the days and times you wish to work, whether that be evenings, weekends, or weekdays (providing patient cases are available).

This is a fully remote role, and due to the nature of the role you must have a private and secure space from which to work with reliable internet access.

Key Responsibilities

Clerking patients within your speciality via telephone assessment following a GP referral made to our Virtual Hospital.

Take a detailed patient history during clerking calls to support the Consultant to form a management plan for the patient.

Discuss risks and benefits of a surgical procedure or invasive test which has been recommended as a possibility by a Consultant, documenting the patient’s agreement in principle (please note all patients will be formally consented as per normal at a later stage).
