Medical photography/illustration provision is exemplary. We are a patient centred organisation that prides itself in delivering outstanding patient care. We are proud that our reputation for excellence sets us apart. Shropshire is the largest inland county in England in the most western part of the West Midlands Region.

It is a beautiful, predominantly rural county with low population density and some dramatic landscapes. There is good reasonably priced housing, a wide choice of schools and plenty of recreational opportunities. The population of Shropshire and mid-Wales is approximately 500,000. Shropshire and Telford Hospitals NHS Trust is based on two main sites - the Princess Royal Hospital, Telford and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital with a number of local hospitals serving the rural areas.

The Wrexham Maelor Hospital, located some 20 minutes north of RJAH also provides full DGH services The Trust is situated in the beautiful Shropshire countryside, on the Welsh border, in the middle of an extensive unspoilt rural area but with has excellent transport links, 30 minutes by road from Chester and Shrewsbury. Manchester and Liverpool airports are about an hour by road, and Birmingham airport 90 minutes. The M54 motorway, which starts just outside Shrewsbury, provides quick access to the national motorway network and there are reasonable rail links from Gobowen via Shrewsbury or Chester. The workload of the anaesthetic department is, in the vast majority of cases, elective and is therefore both planned and predictable.

The anaesthetic service is entirely non-trainee delivered with the department consisting of 22 consultants and 1 associate specialist. Trainees visit the department from local rotations for regional anaesthesia and orthopaedic anaesthesia experience. As there is no A&E department, the anaesthetic department is able to concentrate on providing a high-quality service for our elective patients. Although this is a single surgical speciality hospital, the anaesthesia delivered is interesting, challenging and varied.

There is ample opportunity to perform techniques such as ultrasound guide regional anaesthes
