Description

The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is the largest provider of elective orthopaedic surgery in the UK and provides both routine and specialist orthopaedic services.

The Trust is a renowned teaching hospital, with students and doctors both nationally and internationally seeking placements and fellowship roles with the Trust.

The Trust hosts the Birmingham Orthopaedic Teaching Programme, one of the largest and most successful orthopaedic training programmes in the UK.

The programme is comprised of 40 specialist registrars at different stages of a 6-year programme, during which they rotate through 9 hospitals across the West midlands, gaining experience in the different specialities of Trauma and Orthopaedics.

In addition, our medical education team work in partnership with the University of Birmingham to provide 2-week musculoskeletal placements for their fourth-year medical students.

One of the unique teaching opportunities the Trust offers during the medical student placement is Patient Simulated Teaching (SIMS).

The Trust has recently partnered with the new Aston Medical School at Aston University, which has provided the Trust with an ideal opportunity to increase the scale and offering of its already highly regarded Undergraduate Teaching Academy.

This partnership will increase the Trusts already strong reputation as a teaching hospital both regionally and nationally.
