If you join our expanding department, you’ll discover a rewarding role with great scope for professional development, research and teaching, plus a fantastic lifestyle. Our Trust is investing heavily in our Critical Care Units over the next 12 months, and we would love you to be a part of this.

Why choose us? When you make the move to East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust, your only regret will be that you didn’t do it sooner. Here, you can be confident of making a difference to our patients, our incredible healthcare teams and our dedicated medical students and doctors in training.

The Kent & Medway Medical School has recently opened in Canterbury. This is a game-changing opportunity and one which the two universities and Kent and Medway trusts have been working towards for several years. Successful applicants with an interest in medical education will be supported in taking up an honorary senior lecturer post at the medical school – subject to agreement by KMMS.

Your opportunity.....As a GMC registered Consultant, you’ll play a vital role in a progressive and forward-thinking East Kent Critical Care team. East Kent Critical Care operates across three units: Kent and Canterbury Hospital (8 beds), Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother Hospital, Margate (9 beds), and the William Harvey Hospital (24 beds). This post, including on-call commitments, is based at the Kent and Canterbury Hospital, although sessions on other sites are available if requested.

Our Critical Care team boasts some exciting special interests across our three units. There’s a strong focus on critical care ultrasonography, with state-of-the-art equipment supporting focused echocardiography and bedside ultrasonography. Our consultants include accredited CUSIC and FICE mentors, plus two FICE supervisors. We have high spec ultrasound equipment available on all units, and have recently successfully procured a brand-new state of the art echo machine as well as a cutting-edge echo and ultrasound training mannequin with training modules for transthoracic and transoesophageal echo as well as lung and abdominal ultrasound (including a COVID lung ultrasound module). We also have an interest in advanced ventilation modes such as APRV and Intellivent ASV, and run regular advanced ventilation workshops. Outreach and a Critical Care Rehabilitation service are well established, and we are well supported by a full complement of allied health professionals.

We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with three acute hospitals and community sites serving a local population of around 700,000. We also provide specialist services for Kent and Medway.

We’re on an exciting journey of transformation. With a new Medical School at the centre of our community, a focus on research, clinical leadership and making our trust a rewarding

and friendly place to work, there’s never been a better time to join us. We offer flexible and fulfilling career solutions that work for you and unique opportunities to innovate and inspire – all in a county where you can enjoy your life to the full, whatever your interest.
