The post will also include an equitable participation in the general (non-interventional) on-call rota. The post holder will be required to participate in an on-call rota. Currently this rota is on a 1 in 16 basis attracting 0.935PAs, subject to changes in the number of employed radiologists and changes in service provision. This currently paid at Band A on call allowance which currently attracts a supplement of 3%. Night time CT (after 8pm weekdays, 6pm weekends) is currently outsourced in order that the following days work is not compromised by disturbed sleep. However, the in-house radiologist remains on-call through the night for advice, provision of other modalities and backup in case of IT failure. The SpRs also contribute to the on-call service.
