Do you have what it takes to be part of our Acute Medicine team? This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a newly developed and redesigned acute assessment unit, part of a major expansion of our urgent care facilities.

A newly designed Acute Assessment & Frailty Unit was the last element of our "Ground Floor" urgent and emergency care model, a journey that began with the opening of our state-of-the-art Emergency Department and CT and MRI suite.

The unit brings together acute medicine, with a high observation facility, and a Same Day Emergency Care into one expansive facility. The service is further supported by an 18 bedded short stay acute ward, The hospital boasts an excellent Post Graduate Education Department as well as the Hull Institute of Learning and Simulation (HILS) offering practical skills rooms, ward areas, operating theatre and simulation suite all of which can be customised to the needs of the user. The successful candidates will be supported to develop their leadership skills and research interest and the Library and Knowledge Service provides access to over 10,000 texts both online and physically. To guide you the Trust runs a new consultant programme with the aim of supporting and mentoring new colleagues to challenge their leadership skills while guiding you through the myriad of new experiences and challenges., The Humber Health Partnership is one of the largest acute and community Partnership arrangements in the NHS, seeing well over one million patients every year and managing a budget of over £1.3 billion.
