Supernumerary time is given on commencing the post, and a newly designed bespoke Masters level Emergency Care module validated by Oxford Brookes University is set to commence in 2020.
The Emergency Department sees around 85,000 patients annually. The department has recently been expanded to include a brand new, purpose-built resuscitation area, a new Emergency Observation unit with modernised assessment, and a soon-to-be-refurbished majors’ area. We have a dedicated Paediatric Decisions Unit adjacent to the main Emergency Department, which consists of a waiting area, assessment spaces, and cubicles. We also have a GP service and an Ambulatory Care Unit. We have level 2 trauma status.
