HEALTH & WELLBEING: Experts have the X-factor in Rotherham

The clinical radiology team at Rotherham Hospital won a regional team of the year award from The Society of Radiographers.

Members were nominated by new colleague Brydie Shires, who recently joined them from another hospital trust.

Radiographers take X-rays and other scans of patients' insides, while radiologists use them to diagnose and treat disease.

Chief executive Louise Barnett added: “This is a fantastic achievement for the radiology team and it is great that a new colleague has recognised the hard work and dedication of the team she has joined.

“As a trust, we are performing really well in diagnostics, which is a credit to everyone involved.

“We are very proud of this team who make a real difference for patients.”
