Substantive Consultant in Emergency Medicine at University Hospital Monklands.


This is your chance to become part of a dedicated team committed to providing care that is patient-centred, safe and clinically effective.  But it won’t be just the health of our patients that will improve when you join us: this is a move that will benefit your whole family. Our EM Consultant team use an online self-roster system set several months in advance to optimize flexible working and work-life balance.


Lanarkshire offers the best of both worlds: a quiet county with excellent transport links putting it half an hour from Glasgow and Edinburgh and within easy travelling distance of all the Highlands has to offer.  With a choice of affordable housing in a wide range of urban and rural locations, you can enjoy an excellent quality of life.  All this means you’ll find it easy to leave the challenges of the Emergency Department at work.  


NHS Lanarkshire is supportive of applications from individuals with well-developed ideas for improving services and able to demonstrate a commitment to quality improvement, patient safety (including human factors training), Medical Education and Research & Development.


In University Hospital Monklands Emergency Department you will join a forward-thinking, closely integrated team of 11 consultants delivering extended hours care in a busy department. You will face a demanding case-mix across all age ranges with plenty of scope for dually accredited CCT holders particularly in PEM but also ICM and acute medicine.  It’s an excellent opportunity for a newly trained consultant or an established consultant looking for a new challenge.


All applicants should have full registration and a licence to practice with the GMC. Consultants must be on the Specialist Register or be within 6 months of the anticipated award of a CCT or CESR(CP) at the time of interview for the post.


Join our leading team and you will receive one of the most competitive benefits packages offered by any employer in the UK, including membership of the NHS Pension Scheme. We would accept applications for full or part-time working.
