We bade a fond farewell to our four visiting surgeons as they headed home to Tanzania last week. As well as further time in our London Academy practicing the latest shoulder techniques, our guests observed surgeries at a number of facilities across the UK, including St Guy’s Hospital and Fortius Clinic. There was even time for a spot of sightseeing at the weekend! Thank you to all involved in making this amazing initiative happen, including the British Orthopaedic Association, The St Roch Group, Event Management Direct and Hospital Innovations. #SmithNephew #LifeUnlimited #MedicalEducation #AccessToHealthcare

For us, Health and Safety in the workplace is about showing care and attention for each other’s wellbeing every day. When everyone’s at their best, we’re a far better company. In 2024, all 8 of our manufacturing buildings in Memphis celebrated a year or more without a Recordable Incident (i.e. needing more than first aid). One building even achieved their 10 year milestone! Read more about our commitment to Health and Safety on our Sustainability pages here: https://lnkd.in/e__xXt6D #SmithNephew #LifeUnlimited #HSE
