I have responsibility as the Educational Supervisor for the FY2 working in Orthopaedics. Along with this we have an ST1 in Orthopaedics, a speciality doctor, an FY1 and visiting final year Medical students which means there is thorough involvement with their supervision and under & post grad education.
