high quality new hospital facilities more quickly and cost effectively, ensuring an earlier return on investment for the Trust, and improved outcomes for patients.” Addenbrooke’s Hospital is an internationally
renowned teaching hospital and research centre, with strong affiliations to the University of Cambridge. It is based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus and is run by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH). The new network of surgical hubs across
England will focus mainly on providing high volume low complexity surgery, as recommended by the Royal College of Surgeons. Improving quality and efficiency means patients have shorter waits for surgery, are more likely to go home on the same day, and are less likely to need additional treatment. Andrew McCaskie is a consultant orthopaedic
surgeon at CUH, Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Cambridge, and leads research and training for the new Cambridge Movement Surgical Hub. He
explained: “The dedicated space and innovative care pathways within the Cambridge Movement Surgical Hub will make a huge difference for the many hundreds of patients who are waiting long periods of time for their surgery, often living in pain and struggling to stay active. “In addition, the hub will help those with bone and joint disease more widely, by greatly facilitating our research and innovation into current and future treatments.” The new surgical hub has created a useable legacy from emergency COVID-19 accommodation; utilising and enhancing existing structures to create compliant space to support the new state-of-the-art operating theatres. The hub will be used primarily for orthopaedic operations, as part of the government’s national scheme to provide a total of around 100 more operating theatres and 1,000 more beds. In total, it is estimated the new hubs will deliver almost two million extra routine operations to reduce waiting lists over the next three years, backed by £1.5 billion in government funding.
