It is expected that the successful applicants will have a high clinical profile with the drive and initiative to achieve and sustain the highest standards of emergency medical care. In January 2018, the Minister for Health announced the government’s commitment to the development of a Scottish Trauma Centre Network over a 5-year phased funding plan this network is made up of 4 Regional Major Trauma Centres based in North, East, West and South/East Scotland. The West of Scotland Major Trauma Network is a collaboration of 6 NHS Boards (Ayrshire and Arran; Dumfries and Galloway; Forth Valley; Lanarkshire; Greater Glasgow and Clyde; Highland (Argyll and Bute CHP) and the Scottish Ambulance Service. The network will provide all aspects of trauma care, from the point of injury to rehabilitation, in the region.
