FOUNDATION TRAINING

Introduction

main entrance Welcome to the Noble's Hospital Foundation Training Programme website.

We hope the website will give you a flavour of our F1 and F2 foundation programmes: our rotations, educational programmes and faculty.

There are three clinicians mainly responsible for co-ordinating the foundation programme at Noble's Hospital supported by a team of consultant educational and clinical supervisors, a multi-disciplinary field of teachers and trainers, and small dedicated team from Keyll Darree- the combined education and training centre.

Jon Evans - Foundation Training Programme Director
Roy Clague - Director of Medical Education
Mike Divers - Deputy Director of Medical Education

Our Foundation Programme is part of the Mersey Deanery Foundation school and comprises 12 Foundation Year 1 trainees and 12 Foundation Year 2 trainees.

Training in the Foundation Programme is built around seven important principles, and is:

trainee-centred
competency-assessed
service-based
quality assured
flexible
coached
structured and streamlined

The foundation programme at Noble's Hospital is based around these principles of training, which are reconciled and integrated with the clear patient-focused ethos of the hospital.

Set on a plateau overlooking open countryside with a distant view of the sea, Noble's Hospital Braddan blends state of the art health care technology with bright colour and elegant design. The result is a magnificent modern Hospital environment in which health care professionals can provide high quality services, fit for the 21st Century. The wards are light and airy, offering fine views of the surrounding countryside or landscaped courtyards, rich with decorative planting and sculptural features. There are 20 ward areas and 314 beds. Most wards consist of well appointed 4 bed bays, plus single en-suite rooms and spacious day rooms, all offering superb comfort and privacy. Other key features include:

friendly specialised out-patient areas, dedicated to specific patient groups
a new Diabetes Centre
a resilient IT network infrastructure to support current and future health care information developments
a filmless digital x-ray system which displays electronic images at clinical work stations throughout the Hospital
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to go with a new CT Scanner
a particularly imposing Atrium comprising the Main Entrance, shops, a café and other facilities
helicopter landing pads for the rapid transfer of critically ill patients
abundant car parking

Noble’s Hospital, Braddan, achieves a standard of aesthetic and technological excellence, which can only enhance the work of its dedicated health care professionals for the people of the Island.
