The trauma service is Consultant led, with 20 trauma lists per week (4 on Monday, 3 per day Tuesday to Friday and 2 per day Saturday and Sunday). All the Consultants provide a general Orthopaedic service and in addition they have a sub-specialty interest. There are excellent links with teaching units within the North West region.

Operative facilities are provided in 7 laminar flow theatres across the Trust with 4 at Burnley General Teaching Hospital and 3 at Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital. A comprehensive range of trauma and elective instrumentation is held and regularly updated. Outpatient clinics are based at Burnley General Teaching Hospital and Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital.

The unit is supported by a full range of radiology and pathology services. There are MR facilities on both sites.

They will devote time to this activity on a regular basis and may be named as a point of contact for educational supervision, appraisal and career advice. The post holder will also be responsible for supervising the education of medical students attached to the department.
