Eastbourne, United Kingdom East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust Full time

Consultant Physician in Acute Medicine/SDEC - East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust

We are looking to appoint a dynamic, proactive, forward-thinking Consultant in Acute Medicine to join our current team of 5 Consultants at Eastbourne District General Hospital who will lead, inspire and develop our service and workforce.

We believe Acute Medicine to be hard but rewarding work that requires a balanced job plan allowing time for reflection and education, away from direct clinical care. This is essential for sustainability and to ensure we have the best diagnostic physicians working at the front door to ensure high quality patient care, junior doctor supervision and excellent service delivery. The successful applicant will have a role in teaching both under
- and postgraduate students and will also support colleagues doing these activities as part of their agreed job plan.

The successful appointees should have experience in Acute Medicine and are required to be on the Specialist Register (AIM or GIM) or within 6 months of confirmed entry from the date of interview.

RCP JD approved

We are proud to provide ‘Outstanding’ care and be a great place to work

We provide safe, compassionate and high quality care to half a million people living or visiting East Sussex. We are one of the largest organisations in East Sussex, the only integrated provider of acute and community care in Sussex. Our extensive services are provided by 7000 + members of staff working from acute hospitals in Hastings and Eastbourne, three community hospitals in Bexhill, Rye and Uckfield, over 100 community sites and in people’s own homes.

In 2020 the Care Quality Commission rated us as ‘Good’ overall, and ‘Outstanding’ for being caring and effective. The Conquest Hospital and our Community Services are rated ‘Outstanding’. Eastbourne DGH rated ‘Good’.

In 2020, the Trust launched its ambitious ‘Building for our Future’ programme. This once in a lifetime programme aims to repair, redevelop and expand our hospitals, transforming the environment in which we provide care for generations to come.
