Howwe helped
our patients
Helping clinicians
perfect their skills -
without touching a
patient
Trainee doctors at ESNEFT are now able to perfect
their endoscopy skills without touching a patient
following the introduction of a new state-of-th*art
virtual reality simulator funded by our charity.
The equipment. called an Endosim. allows students
to practice almost any procedure in a classroom
environment. including endoscopy of the lower and
upper gastrointestinal tract and bile duct, as well as
bronchoscopies, which look into the lungs.
It gives them the opportunity to learn how to use a
scope to master a variety of different skills safely
and effectively, and will accurately measure their
progress until they achieve the necessary
competencies to move into a theatre.
ESNEFT is one of just a handful of trusts across the country
to invest in the equipment, which has been installed in the
ICENI Centre at Colchester Hospital.
Earlier in 2021. the centre also took delivery of brand new
augmented reality simulation equipment, which will help
our laparoscopic {keyhole) surgeons to further improve
their skills.
The technology uses motion-tracking software in a
laparoscopic box trainer to allow assessors to objectively
measure a studenys performance and improvement over
time. in turn helping them to determine whether they are
ready to begin operating on patients.
The ICENI Centre was able to purchase the equipment
thanks to grants from our charity. as well as the Dinwoodie
Charitable Company. Colchester Catalyst Charity and the
Colchester Medical Charitable Trust.

ESNEFT'S
dedicated staff
COVID-19 Staff
Wellbeing Appeal
At the start of the coronavirus pandemic, we
launched a special COVID-19 Staff Wellbeing
Appeal to help us safeguard the emotional
and physical wellbeing of ESN EFfs staff and
volunteers so that they could continue to do
their very best for patients.
Thanks to the generosity of local people and
funding from NHS Charities Together, we raised
an impressive £863,754 by the end of the
financial year.
So far, this money has been spent training staff as
mental health first aiders so they can recognise the
signs of mental ill health and offer support to
colleagues. ESNEFTS ambition is for 10/0 of its staff
the equivalent of 1.000 individuals
to eventually
receive this training, and we are proud that we have
been able to contribute towards this ambition.
In additior). we are investing £250.000 in creating two
calming oasis spaces at our main hospitals where staff can
take time to relax away from a clinical environment. These
spaces will include comfortable seating, while the walls will
be decorated with artwork to make them as homely as possible.
The space in Ipswich is due to open in the summer of 2021 with
Colchester following in the autumn and we are continuing to explore
how we can best meet the needs of our community based staff too.
Money has also been spent on a host of smaller projects
which have made a big difference to staff. This includes new
furniture. fridges and microwaves for staff rooms. while new
outdoor seating areas have also been created. In addition. we
were able to offer all 10,000 members of staff. as well as
everyone who volunteers at ESNEFT. a festive voucher to
spend in the hospital canteens or local cafes at Christmas
to thank them for their hard work and dedication.
