University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust is the largest hospital in the Southwest peninsula and the major trauma centre (MTC) for the South West of England within the Peninsula Trauma Network, providing comprehensive secondary and tertiary healthcare.

The Emergency Department (ED) currently sees more than 100,000 patients per year. The Peninsula is a largely rural region with very few centres with a large urban population. The overall population of the region is approximately 1.67million, which can increase by an extra 1 million people in the peak holiday season.

The ED facilities currently include a 7-bay resuscitation room (with co-located CT scanner), 21 majors cubicles, a separate ambulatory majors area, a minors area, a dedicated paediatric area, 2 small theatres and a plaster room, a seminar room, break room, and offices. A £160m rebuild of the ED is planned to commence in early 2023, with a scheduled opening in November 2025, as part of the Future Hospitals Programme. This will provide a state-of-the-art ED suitable for our growing population.

We have a strong academic department undertaking our own research and portfolio studies. We are a teaching hospital with significant input into undergraduate medical, nursing and paramedic education, along with postgraduate training at all levels.

We benefit from excellent access to tertiary services and have good relationships with key departments to support our work. We pride ourselves on being a friendly, supportive department.
