History
The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital was formed from the union of two hospitals, and opened in 1909 at The Woodlands, Northfield. The building, dating from 1840, was donated to the Birmingham Cripples Union by George Cadbury, who then moved into Northfield Manor House.
A new 8-million-pound out-patient department was opened in May 2011. Its 24 consultation rooms, treatment rooms and other facilities replaced the temporary out-patients buildings that had been used since 1992.
Performance
The trust expects a deficit for 2014-15 of £200,000 and in 2015/6 a £2m deficit target relies on delivering “challenging” savings of £2.8m.
It was named by the Health Service Journal as one of the top hundred NHS trusts to work for in 2015. At that time it had 831 full time equivalent staff and a sickness absence rate of 4.56%. 84% of staff recommend it as a place for treatment and 67% recommended it as a place to work.
