If you’re a passionate, resilient clinician motivated to take on a new challenge within a forward-thinking department, we would love to hear from you!

The NNUH ED is led by a motivated team who are forward thinking in their approach to emergency medicine. Our ED is the busiest in the region, where no two days are the same. Our dynamic clinical and support teams are passionate about delivering high quality care to our patients, and we do this despite the challenges that are thrown our way. You will be joining at a time of exciting development, improvement, and change, and we look forward to you being part of this journey with us.
You will be part of an established team of trainee and credentialed RCEM ACPs who are working across all areas of the department, minors, majors, paediatrics, ambulatory, and resus. As an ACP service we have a proven track record of success and are proud of the seven trainees that have already completed their RCEM training, across Adults and Paediatrics. You will provide high-quality, patient focused, efficient and comprehensive assessment and treatment to a range of patients arriving through our front doors. Alongside this you will receive professional support, training and supervision from peers, nursing colleagues, ACPS and Doctors.
The Trust and department have strong links with local HEI and we encourage our team to be involved in the education of the next generation of ACPs and Nurses. We encourage our ACPs to explore areas of interest and we look to support those interests for the benefit of our patients.
