Join our acute medical unit team
Join our brand-new, £20 million, 32 bed acute medical unit at Northwick Park Hospital.
We’ve specifically designed the unit to provide excellent acute medical care in the most clinically appropriate setting.
The unit will improve the way our patients flow through our hospital, and it’ll help our emergency teams focus on the patients who really need them, too.
That’s where you and our new acute medical unit come in
In fact, we’re building the acute medical unit on top of our emergency department, right at the heart of the hustle and bustle of London’s biggest and busiest ED. From there, we can see over 500 people every single day, many of whom need urgent, lifesaving care.
It’s a great time to join #TeamLNWH
Come and work in our brand-new, multi-million-pound, acute medical unit.
You’ll work in a multi-professional team of doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals, supported by dedicated admin and non-clinical colleagues. Together, you’ll make sure your patients receive the care they urgently need.
Learn from each other and progress your career with #TeamLNWH
Depending on the outcome, your patients will move to a medical speciality ward for onward care, or you’ll help them safely return home.
Whether they’re admitted for further care and treatment or discharged home, you’ll work with hospital and social care colleagues to make sure your patients get the right care, no matter where they’re heading.
You’ll get so much experience
The acute medical on level 5 joins our existing acute medicine units at Northwick Park Hospital: Crick and Darwin. Together with ED and our same day emergency care (SDEC) service, you’ll play an essential part in our emergency front door.
Most patients will stay on our units for no more than 72 hours, so you could see over 1,000 north west Londoners a year. That means you’ll get plenty of experience caring for a hugely diverse population with an incredibly varied caseload.
Along with that experience, you’ll get all the support you need to develop your skills with both on the job learning and formal training.
And because we’re a large, multi-site acute healthcare provider, there are plenty of opportunities to take your career wherever you want.
Your new teammates can’t wait to meet you.
