Applications are invited for these new posts in the Urgent Treatment Centre at this major London teaching hospital, which is also part of the academic health science partnership UCL Partners.
Services will be provided within our newly redeveloped emergency floor with access to state of the art in situ diagnostics with rapid access to emergency ambulatory care and specialist support.
Provision of high quality urgent care is a strategic priority for UCLH and successful candidates will join us as we embark on our ambitious plans to transform emergency care services for our local population. We seek to embed service improvement, education and innovation in all aspects of our work".

The posts are designed to include a proportionate amount of time for supporting professional activity, which might be relevant audit activity, guideline development, and/or an opportunity to acquire new experience and skills by attending out-patient clinics in the Trust for example.
