As part of the inpatient leadership team, there is an expectation to provide senior Band 7 duty cover on Saturdays, Sundays, and Bank Holiday Mondays across the wider unplanned adult and older adult inpatient services. This currently equates to approximately one in every 15 weekends (around four weekends per year), with time off in lieu taken during the week. This role is supported by the weekend multidisciplinary team (MDT), which provides cover for all inpatient areas to facilitate urgent MDT discussions. The service is led by the Band 7 on duty alongside an inpatient Responsible Clinician (RC) or Approved Clinician (AC), both operating on a rota basis.
