FIXED-TERM 12 MONTHS CONSULTANT ACUTE MEDICINE
We are looking to recruit to a whole-time fixed-term Consultant post for 12 months, offering exciting opportunities for a highly motivated Medic to join a dynamic, rapidly expanding team delivering multidisciplinary acute care.
We believe this is an opportunity to join an established consultant team who lead from the frontline, supported by doctors in training from the Mersey deanery and a skilled nursing team, providing outstanding 24 hour care.
The Acute & Emergency Medicine Care Group encompasses the specialities of Acute Medicine and Emergency medicine within the Division of Medicine at the Royal Liverpool Hospital.
The Division’s Medical Director is Dr Mark Lawton with Dr Patricia Cunningham as the Clinical Director for Acute Medicine. All major clinical subspecialties are represented within the Division of Medicine (cardiology, respiratory medicine, gastroenterology, nephrology, diabetes & endocrinology, clinical gerontology, dermatology & allergy, rheumatology and infectious diseases & clinical pharmacology). Neurology is provided by the regional neurological centre (Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust) based at the University Hospital Aintree campus.
Acute emergency medical admissions are preferentially handled within the Acute Medical Unit (AMU), which is situated adjacent to the Emergency Department (ED) at the Royal Liverpool Hospital. This unit deals with the majority (over 90%) of the Division’s total acute admissions, whether admitted via ED or through GP referral. The AMU currently has 66 beds, as well as a newly established acute assessment assessment area with 26 fully examination spaces. Approximately 40% of all admissions to the AMU are discharged to home directly from the unit. The median stay on AMU for all patients is in the region of 18 hours
Since opening in 2018 there has been a significant investment in the ambulatory emergency care service (AEC). There is a dedicated space to assess and manage patients requiring same day interventions as well as the facilities to bring patients back for assessment, allowing for safe and early discharge from hospital. There is also a virtual component to the work carried out on AEC allowing a more efficient way of managing our patients and reducing the number of trips to hospital.
Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.
The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.
The Trust runs Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool University Dental Hospital and the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.
It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.
