It's an exciting time for the Orthopaedic team at Bolton NHS Foundation Trust. We've just received significant investment from the trust to expand and improve our offering to patients across our Orthopaedic services.
There is on call cover required on a 1:11 rota.
A little bit about us!
The Orthopaedic unit has a dedicated outpatient department at the hospital with its own x-ray facility. We also provide an excellent interface outpatient service at Bolton One in the town centre led by our team of Advanced Orthopaedic Practitioners. Within the hospital we have a ring-fenced orthopaedic ward (F6) and two trauma wards - G3 and G4 both of which have a Trauma Stabilisation Unit (TSU).
Our main theatre suite has 4 laminar flow theatres which are generally used for arthroplasty surgery as well as trauma. Our newly extended day care facility currently has 2 general anaesthetic theatres, a treatment room and 25 day care beds with further development of theatres in the pipeline.
At present, our team of thirteen Consultants provide general services as well as appropriate specialisation in key areas. Our team also consists of experienced plaster room staff, physiotherapists, specialist registrars, foundation year doctors, clinical fellows, advanced nurse practitioners and our dedicated administrative team.
