The emergency medicine team features a robust support structure, including a skilled workforce of middle grade and specialty doctors, higher trainees, and advanced clinical practitioners. The department is committed to fostering junior staff development through specialty posts and training routes. Candidates interested in a dynamic environment that prioritizes both clinical excellence and the advancement of medical education are encouraged to apply.
As part of our workforce transformation, we are looking to appoint Consultants in Emergency Medicine to work in our Emergency Departments at The Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother Hospital in Margate.
We offer our consultants the option of a 10 or 12 PA job plan (7.5DCC/2.5SPA or 9DCC/3SPA) which includes a flexible shift rota between 08:00 - 22:00 weekdays and 8 hours at weekends. Specific individual requirements will also be accommodated where possible, including the ability to have fixed weekdays off or part time positions.
A new medical school opened in east Kent from 2020, offering 100 training places per annum. We have been working closely with university partners and other Kent Trusts to see this to fruition and would strongly welcome applicants who may be interested in joint academic and clinical appointments. In addition to the development of others, we are keen to support the professional and academic study of our consultant body. This includes support to study post-graduate qualifications such as MBA or MSc or undertaking academic research.
Our emergency medicine consultants are supported by an EM workforce consisting of 25 Middle Grade/ Speciality Doctors, in addition to higher trainees (2) and ACCS posts (4). We support the development of our junior grade workforce by offering special interest posts, a CESR completion route and have a cohort of trainee Advanced Clinical Practitioners supported by our Acute Care Nurse Consultants.
