This is a 6 month 10 session contract (7 direct clinical contact and 3 SPA).

Emergency Medicine at Wrexham Maelor Hospital (WMH) has undergone a radical transformation towards a modern and rapidly evolving service that is ambitious to see the highest standards of emergency care for its population. We are looking for a Consultant who has the vision, ambition and drive to work alongside the existing team to progress the department.

The post is based at the WMH site which is a very rapidly developing and strategically important hospital within North Wales.

The ED currently provides Consultant shop floor cover Monday - Friday from 8am to midnight. This may be extended with additional Consultant expansion.

WMH operates a model based on the RCEM standards of an Emergency Physician in Charge (EPIC). The EPIC coordinates the ED with the nurse in charge based in the ED hub according to the standard operating procedures. Consultants are expected to provide high standards of shop floor leadership and direction, working closely with colleagues from Welsh Ambulance Services Trust (WAST), nursing, and management to ensure the safety of patients and to ensure good and timely decision making and patient flow through the hospital. There is time allocated for non-patient faced Direct Clinical Contact, which would involve review of Radiology reports and Concerns Management.
