Ward 4 is a busy
unit with a high throughput of different and diverse patients. As a
regional centre for Cardiology, the ward has incorporated an assessment
unit to receive and assess patients referred from over the North West
Region.
We are keen to promote staff development and encourage, for staff who
are interested, a "rotation" between the different areas of the Manchester
Heart Centre. There is much scope of developing a greater understanding
of Cardiology and Cardiothoracic surgery. Study leave of 10 days per
year is given to all staff and each year, funded places on the E.N.B.
124 course are available along with Research Project on the Ward.
