Grange University Hospital is a state of the art new build and the ED hosts 8 resus spaces, 27 spaces in the majors area, separate children’s emergency assessment area and 8 bedded short stay unit, set in beautiful Gwent countryside. There is a pre-hospital service run by the ED that operates 9-5, Monday-Friday but extending to weekend cover shortly! There are 4 minor injury units on the Aneurin Bevan footprint that are run by ENPs but our rotas ensure that all doctors rotate out to the MIUs to gain their minor injury experience. There is PEM consultant cover 10-6 with doctors allocated to this area to ensure paediatric exposure. There is a rich educational programme with protected teaching sessions and regular governance meetings including m and m (or a and a (awesome and amazing) as we prefer) meetings, safety meetings, trauma meetings, joint ITU meetings, journal clubs.
Aneurin Bevan EDs have always been renowned for their interesting pathology, complex patients and their ethos of hard work, focus on training and above all team work. This has continued into the new GUH ED as we settle in and continue to develop our service, making it a great place to work!
