The department has recently expanded into the community providing support to General Practice surgeries and selected care homes a part of pilot into future community models; this work has commenced at Derby and is planned to include Burton. The department is active in teaching both medical students and at postgraduate level. There is also a developing research program, alongside regular audits and a developing set of KPIs. We are enthusiastic educators and enjoy supervising our junior colleagues and helping them to achieve their goals and guiding them successfully through their specialist training.

We know that staff satisfaction is inextricably linked to patient satisfaction and we recruit staff who subscribe to our values of compassion, attitude, respect and equality. By living our values we have a culture that puts patients at the heart of everything we do. The Trust is an Equal Opportunities employer and operates employee-friendly policies, including job share. Derby and Burton offer the best of both worlds cosmopolitan city life on the doorstep of stunning countryside.
