An exciting opportunity has arisen in the Same Day Emergency Care department to welcome a new Clinical Support Worker to our team.
Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) is a fast-paced, rapid assessment unit for medical patients referred by the Emergency Department (ED), hospital wards, and primary care. The unit aims to deliver high-quality care within the same day to avoid hospital admissions when safe and reduce ED attendances, ensuring patients receive the right care in the right place.
