Department of Emergency Medicine
The Adult Emergency Department sees over 150,000 patients per year. The department serves the City of Coventry (population 325,000) but is also the receiving hospital for large parts of the midlands for major trauma cases and major incidents as part of the national trauma network.
We provide a number of tertiary services to an extended population and thus the ED receives a significant number of emergency admissions for sub-regional specialties including interventional cardiology, stroke medicine, oncology, renal medicine and neurosurgery. The department has strong links with the local Primary Care Trusts and Ambulance Service and has developed innovative cross-sector initiatives to support admission avoidance and promote community care. The department is well staffed across medical and nursing tiers and is not dependent on a locum workforce.
Facilities
We have:
