The appointee will join an enthusiastic and friendly department of ICOP consultants which is an integral part of the Division of Medicine at the QEH.
The ICOP physicians work closely together providing cross cover for subspecialty interests. Currently we manage 56 acute in-patient beds and 34 community rehabilitation beds.
The appointed consultant would be expected to contribute to the on-going service improvement programme developing:
* Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT)
* Cost Improvement programme (CIP)
* Implementing evidence based new ways of working when necessary
There’s never been a more exciting time to join Team QEH. We’re working on a once in a generation opportunity to build a new state-of-the-art hospital and we are also carrying out on one of the biggest pieces of digital transformation work we’ve ever undertaken.
Our new electronic patient record (EPR) will replace paper-based patient records from 2026 and will lead to better, safer, joined-up care at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and beyond.
At the QEH we provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community-based services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, North Cambs and South Lincs.
We are an ambitious organisation that upholds our values of kindness, wellness and fairness. We strive for continuous quality improvement, recently demonstrated in our 2024 CQC maternity inspection rating our services as ‘Good’, and we are proud to be a place to learn and grow through recognised learning and apprenticeships.
We recognise and reward our 4,000 staff and volunteers, priding ourselves on a community atmosphere and positive team spirit. We have approx. 530 beds across 33 wards and have newly built education and training facilities, a range of modern award-winning centres alongside a talented team of people ready to give you a warm welcome. We love working here and think you will too.
