Physician Associate In Medical Oncology
The successful candidate will be required to start immediately. Post Specific Related Information: Physician associate in medical oncology: The Medical Oncology department in CUH is growing. We administer systemic anti-cancer treatments for solid tumour patients. The modalities of treatment include cytotoxic chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and supportive care medications such as bisphosphonates. Many cancer patients can achieve cure or live for many years with this expanding array of therapeutics. The Physician Associate will play a key role in the team through helping to administer treatments and monitor patients on these therapies. Objective Physician Associates (PA) are trained and educated similarly to doctors, and therefore share similar diagnostic and therapeutic reasoning. By design, physicians and PAs work together as a team, and all PAs practice medicine with doctor supervision. Supervision does not mean that a supervising doctor must always be present with the PA or direct every aspect of PA-provided care; rather the PA practice can be described as delegated autonomy. The Lead Consultant (who may be a Consultant Physician or a Consultant Surgeon) delegates duties to the PA, and within those range of duties, the PA uses autonomous decision-making for patient care. The team model is the key-stone to maintaining a high-quality, efficient healthcare service. The Physician Associate’s responsibilities are determined by the laws of the country in which they practice, the hospital board and the supervising consultant. The PA will function under a standard Physician Associate Role Description as outlined below. Specific functions pertaining to the service, clinic or department will be established and agreed upon by the supervising Consultant (s), and appropriate Clinical Director. The successful candidate will be required to be flexible in relation to working hours on occasion. Supervision: Supervision is provided by the consultant. Supervising consultants have continuing responsibility to follow the progress of the patients and are responsible for all medical services provided by a PA under their supervision. Specifically: In-patients: Duties and Responsibilities: In partnership with the supervising consultant the Physician Associate will function with a delegated autonomy that is consistent with the consultant’s scope of practice. Primary Duties will be inclusive of the following but not limited to: · Performs comprehensive physical examination, and compiles patient medical data, including health history and results of physical examination. · Administers or orders diagnostic tests, such as imaging studies, electrocardiogram, and laboratory tests, and interprets test results for deviations from normal. · Prepare a written or electronic prescription or drug order for signature by a licenced doctor.
