South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS
Foundation Trust (SECAmb) has appointed a new interim Medical
Director.
Dr Andy Carson replaces the previous Medical Director Dr Rory
McCrea who stepped down from the Trust for personal reasons last
week.
Dr Carson will provide medical oversight at the Trust two day a
week – the same number of days as Dr McCrea.
Dr Carson’s substantive position remains with West Midlands
Ambulance Service.
Acting SECAmb Chief Executive Geraint Davies said: “We’re
pleased to have been able to appoint Dr Carson as our interim
Medical
Director. I’d like to welcome him to the Trust and know that the
wealth of experience he brings is sure to be of benefit as we move
forward and as we seek to appoint a new permanent Medical
Director.”
Dr Carson added: “I’m pleased to have been appointed to this
position. I am looking forward to meeting everyone and working with
my new colleagues at SECAmb.”
