Naomi Charing has returned to the trust as a consultant after starting her career here back in 2010. This is Dr Charing’s story…
Hi, my name is Naomi, and I’m a Consultant in Paediatric Emergency Medicine at Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust.
I trained in West Yorkshire and began my career as a doctor right here at Mid Yorks back in 2010. I live with my young family and love my busy and fun fast-paced home and work life!
I love working as part of a team and have been made to feel so welcome here by both the incredible emergency medicine team and the paediatric department. The Emergency Department is busy, noisy, stressful and an incredibly challenging environment to work in, but the job is made so much easier by the dedication, compassion, and support from all the staff that work there. It is, in my opinion, the most challenging yet rewarding job there is.
I am passionate about great emergency healthcare for kids, and really understand how frightening and stressful the emergency department can be for both children and their parents or grownups. I am excited to work within a small but expanding team within the paediatric emergency department, and I enjoy working very closely and collaboratively with the paediatric team.
I was thrilled that Mid Yorks achieved teaching hospital status, and love being involved in both undergraduate and postgraduate education, especially simulation. I am working with the paediatric simulation education team and plan to run regular teaching sessions within both Pinderfields and Dewsbury paediatric emergency medicine departments.
