Morecambe Bay trust hosts first ultrasound study day
Delegates and speakers at Morecambe Bay Hospital Trust’s study day.
Morecambe Bay Hospital Trust (MBHT) held an inaugural ultrasound study day at Westmorland General Hospital, attended by sonographers and radiologists from the three hospitals in the trust. Entitled ‘System training and ultrasound update at MBHT’, the meeting was led by consultant radiologist at Furness General Hospital Dr Nigel Grunshaw and supported by Toshiba Medical Systems.
This was the first time that the trust had organised an in-house ultrasound study day, and it was the first time since the trust was formed that all three ultrasound teams had been brought together.
Jayne Ireland was recently appointed as head of ultrasound across the trust and said: “The study day marked the beginning of many positive changes that lie ahead for the team at MBHT. The three previously separate, ultrasound teams will now work more closely by sharing expertise and every sonographer will be fully supported and have the opportunity, with training, to develop to their full potential.”
