The Cardiorespiratory Department is a large team split across two main sites with a third smaller diagnostic hub on Stafford Hub. Despite this we work as a strong, cohesive, supportive team. The Cardiac Device team is based at PRH but you will support inpatient requests across the trust and sometimes a domiciliary setting. Outside of the device team, the Echo, admin and respiratory specialties within Cardiorespiratory work closely together, some staff are cross speciality which only enhances our service and creates a friendly, positive atmosphere.
