The Department of Anaesthesia supports the pre-operative assessment service, and as such the appointee will contribute to this area.

UHBW is a teaching Trust with close links to Southmead Hospital and the University of Bristol. There is a strong tradition of teaching in the department and we support the running of Bristol Medical Simulation Centre.

More detailed person specification is available with the job description.
