We are proud to celebrate this year's annual SAS Week (14-18 October 2024) here at University Hospitals of Derby and Burton (UHDB), which honours our Specialty and Specialist (SAS) doctors for the vital role they play in delivering exceptional patient care.

SAS doctors are a cornerstone of the NHS - providing consistent, high quality care as permanent members of clinical teams. They bring an extraordinary range of experience and skills to a range of disciplines and departments, and their impact is immeasurable.

Today (Monday 14 October) is Allied Health Professional (AHP) Day, highlighting the key role AHPs play in the NHS and delivering exceptional care to our patients and communities. We want to take this opportunity to celebrate the roles and contributions of our AHP professions at UHDB by shining a light on the amazing work they do.

On Monday 28 October colleagues and members of the public are invited to drop-in to the free dementia festival event taking place at Royal Derby Hospital (RDH) DE22 3NE, between 9am and 2pm. 

Today is #Red4Research Day, which highlights and celebrates all those who take part in, support, and deliver research - shining a spotlight on teams and individuals who are driving innovation in healthcare through their commitment to research.

Here at University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust (UHDB), we are delighted to take part in today's celebrations and showcase just some of the groundbreaking research happening across our hospitals.
