Description

The main ENT department base is the RSCH with all H&N operations and emergencies treated there.

The ENT outpatient department will benefit from a newly refurbished outpatients department, shared with MFU, when the Louisa Martindale Building opens Spring 2023.

The H&N ward is shared with Neurosciences. The Childrens Hospital is also on the RSCH site.

At PRH there are OPD facilities and day surgery facilities. QVH has an excellent head and neck cancer service with support from the resident Maxillofacial team. Worthing has a 5 day ENT department with OPD, Audiology and inpatient/day case facilities. The Worthing department benefits from a newly refurbished out-patients department shared with MFU.

Medical student teaching is now a regular part of the departments workload. It is envisaged the post holder will provide both oncological and non-oncological H&N surgery including thyroid surgery. Close working with MFU and oncology is part of the role.

The hospitals within Sussex have the advantage of unparalleled location between the South Downs and the coast, with the inexorable benefits this confers.
