Job Description
Emergency Medicine is at the heart of the hospital’s emergency care pathway and provides high quality care for patients from the moment they arrive at the hospital. The department is led by a highly motivated group of consultants who are committed to providing high level care with a drive to develop the service further. This role will enable the Emergency Department to deliver high quality and timely care in the face of the pressures resulting from increased emergency admissions and the greater acuity of cases presenting. The Trust is currently building a new state of the art Emergency Department, meaning that the postholder will have the opportunity to help support an exciting transition period. They will then have the opportunity to work and receive training in a modern, innovative Emergency Department built from the ground up with staff needs in mind and to support quality patient care.
It is a consultant led service with consultants providing leadership and patient care on the shop floor from 24 hours a day Monday to Friday and 22:00 at weekends with a desire to enhance weekend cover. The ethos of the department is to provide high level care whilst supporting the education and training of junior staff both clinical and nursing both on and off the shop floor.
These roles will provide the 24/7 registrar cover a department of this size needs. Although this is a Trust grade job and not part of a formal postgraduate training programme, one of the key benefits will be to increase senior shop floor presence, whilst allowing the same time for learning and level of support as it you were on a postgraduate programme.
