New 32 Acute Medical Unit (AMU) at Northwick Park

We are looking for enthusiastic, forward-thinking, and passionate Consultants, to help shape and deliver our vision in providing outstanding care to our patients and community.

About Northwick Park
Northwick Park is a Major Acute Hospital with a busy medical take and an established reputation for patients presenting with a very wide range of medical conditions with a high degree of acuity. Recognition of the vital role that is played by Acute Medicine has seen the Trust make a substantial investment in the service. This will enable the department to develop three Acute Medical Unit wards (the third opening in early 2024) with patients remaining under the care of the acute team for their duration on the unit. In addition, the team runs the Same Day Emergency Care Unit and the well-established Medical High Dependency Unit. Participation in HDU will be optional dependent on previous experience and competencies.
