**Hospital Departments**: The Orthopaedic service is supported by the various departments that make up a busy general hospital.
Radiology has a full complement of services e.g., MRI, CT, Nuclear Medicine as well as plain film imaging. A PACS and RADIN network is available to review images online around the trust.
Access to Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy service on site.
Each middle grade doctor is responsible to one of the Orthopaedic Consultant teams and will rotate between those teams.

Orthopaedic surgery is undertaken in a separate Manfield Theatre Suite comprising 4 laminar flow airflow theatres. Trauma surgery is undertaken in dedicated daily trauma lists within the Manfield suite. Out-patient clinics are undertaken in a separate Orthopaedic and Fracture Clinic suite.
The 16 consultants are organised into four firms according to their sub-specialty interests: Lower limb arthroplasty; foot and ankle surgery; upper limb surgery; and paediatric orthopaedics.
Their overall supervision will be by one of the consultants who will assess their capabilities and monitor their progress.
They will work with one consultant to reflect the current working pattern of the middle grades but may be called upon to work with the other consultants to gain exposure to a variety of procedures.
The unit undertakes approximately 1200 lower limb joint replacements per year as well as revision procedures of both hip and knee. Exposure will be given to all forms of arthroplasty surgery, including resurfacing.
Within the Department there are regular meetings, including Morbidity & Mortality, Radiology, Revision and Complex Case discussions.
As well as the seminars mentioned above there are facilities in the postgraduate medical centre with an extensive library, audio-visual aids, study rooms etc. The department itself has its own specialist library.
