Prince Charles Hospital is based in Merthyr Tydfil, close to the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park. Our District General Hospital sees a wide variety of presentations, including trauma from the Heads of the Valleys Road and local mountain-biking attraction, Bike Park Wales. One of our associate specialist doctors is our ultrasound lead and is very keen to impart his years of experience with ECHO and Regional Blocks. The department sees a wide variety of resus, majors and minors patients. We see high volume of paediatric cases as a percentage of our overall attendances. The department provides valuable training opportunities in all areas of Emergency Medicine.
