Nishi Madan, Governor for Derby City I see my role as a Trust governor as engaging with communities and representing their views to help shape service design and improve services.

Working as a health improvement principal for NHS Derby City Primary Care Trust means I work closely with local communities and with the recruitment and training of volunteers as health champions to promote health messages in their natural communities. I was keen to use my experience in this fi eld to be part of the Core Regulations Group and the Patient Experience and Nishi, left, carrying out an audit in audiology Engagement Group.

  • The Royal Derby Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Certificate of Eligibility of Specialist Registration (CESR) Rotations in Emergenc
    The Royal Derby Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Certificate of Eligibility of Specialist Registration (CESR) Rotations in Emergency Medicine INTRODUCTION We are advertising a number of posts on our well-established physician-specific CESR rotation, based at The Royal Derby Hospital. The post is intended to provide the clinician with the support and training required to successfully complete all aspects of the CESR process. It will be possible to provide specific three-month secondment-style modules to address relevant educational and competency needs. Secondments include Anaesthesia, ITU, Acute Medicine and Children’s Emergency Medicine. Our department is renowned for its training and support. The consultant body has current FCEM examiners as well as experience at the CESR application process. There will be a specifically- designed training and teaching package for all successful applicants and there will be a designated consultant supervisor for the duration of the rotation. From a clinical perspective these posts will participate in the 24-hour emergency department rota. The rotation is initially offered on a fixed-term contract for 12 months after which we would envisage extension on a mutually agreed basis. The post holder must be registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) and hold a licence to practice. THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT The emergency department at the new Royal Derby Hospital provides a 24-hour emergency service to a population in excess of 600,000 within Southern Derbyshire. There is a separate children’s emergency department which is co located with the adult emergency department. Total activity for 2011/12 for both units was just over 115,000.
