Consultant in Emergency Medicine

2 months ago

Kirkcaldy, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

We are looking to welcome new colleagues to join an enthusiastic, motivated and supportive team of 17 Consultant Emergency Physicians (13 WTE) dedicated to providing care that is patient-centred, safe and clinically effective.

You will work in the Emergency Department at Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy, which opened in 2012. The department has an annual attendance of 68 000 with approximately 25% paediatrics.

As an EM consultant group, we believe strongly in providing a sustainable work/life balance. A PA is included for each on call. Clinical administration time has been factored in as per RCEM guidance. There is a 24-hour middle grade rota filled with a mixture of Trainees from the South-East Scotland rotation, specialty doctors and clinical development fellows. There are no plans for consultant nightshifts in the foreseeable future.

We perform well in key areas such as sepsis, stroke thrombolysis and trauma management. We have an excellent relationship and collaborate closely with all in-patient teams. As a department we are committed to teaching and providing a positive experience of EM to our junior doctors. Our trainees rate their experiences in Fife highly and this is recognised regionally and in GMC surveys.

Applicants who wish to arrange job plans to accommodate other professional interests are encouraged to apply.
Those trained in the UK should have evidence of higher specialist training leading to CCT or be within 6 months of confirmed entry from date of interview. Alternatively, they should have eligibility for specialist registration (CESR).

Interviews will be held on 25th May 2023
