Case Studies

Low recruitment

An England ICS has built a new Orthopaedic Centre but with only 45% recruitment despite being unable to operate without full capacity. Surge helps by offering full staffing and surgical service accountability including all associated peri-operative care and costs.

Funding cuts

A medium-sized hospital has an elective orthopaedic waiting list of over 18 months, with constant bed shortages. If unresolved, they face finance cuts. Surge provides and install, at no cost, 2 mobile & temporary ortho theatres with full staffing.

Complex surgeries

Medium sized hospital with a rapidly growing orthopaedic elective surgery waiting list with higher % of complex surgeries and average LOS per ortho patient being >4 days. Surge aids through access to 2 dedicated theatres to provide, in house, full-time, orthopaedic elective surgery support.

case study 1

Low recruitment


situational overview

An England ICS, has built a new Orthopaedic Centre of Excellence (CoE) with 6 operating theatres & 50 beds and associated support rooms. The target official opening is in just 4 months time. New staff recruitment has only achieved 45% of target levels required for opening.The current orthopaedic elective surgery waiting list is now over 1 year, an increase of 10% in last 12 months. There is public and NHS pressure to open new Orthopaedic centre at full capacity. The CoE finances are already over budget due to high cost of construction. There is tremendous financial reluctance to temporarily in-source more staff as it will negatively impact other cost centres within the Trust.


surge solution

In time for official opening, Surge assumes full staffing and surgical service accountability for 2 theatres and 14 beds within the CoE. All associated peri-operative care and operating/consumable costs for surgeries and beds are assumed by Surge for contract of a minimum of 1000 (Max 3000) hip equivalent surgeries in the next 12 months. Surge solution provides for: 47 nurses, 5 surgeons, 5 anaesthetists, 2 admin, 2 drivers, 6 physio & 4 therapy assistants. After 6-12 months when contract completed, and when CoE has completed full nursing recruitment, Surge exits and CoE continues as originally planned.

Funding cuts


situational overview

Medium sized hospital has elective orthopaedic waiting list of over 18 months (> 1000 procedures) and it continues to grow. Limited theatre space and wards constantly challenged with critical surgeries and bed shortages. Post COVID, staff (surgeons & nurses) are exhausted and unwilling to work long or extra shifts.Difficulty recruiting additional or part time staff to the country. To have any measurable reduction in waiting list, in next 12-18 months, they need extra theatres with accompanying ward/recovery beds and extra staff. No capital funds available for building additions and equipping the theatres. There is public pressure and NHS pressure to achieve budgeted number of orthopaedic surgeries or orthopaedic funding will be reduced.


surge solution

Surge provide and install, at no cost, 2 mobile & temporary ortho theatres with 14 recovery beds. Surge provides full staffing, covers all capital and operating costs including all associated peri-operative care and operating costs, for a minimum of 6 months. Surge solution includes: 47 nurses, 5 surgeons, 5 anaesthetists, 2 admin, 2 drivers, 6 physio & 4 therapy assistants.

Complex surgeries


situational overview

Medium sized hospital with a rapidly growing orthopaedic elective surgery waiting list fuelled by limited staff, limited theatre time and limited ward space. Hospital performing higher % of complex surgeries given aging demographics of the local population. Average LOS per ortho patient is over 4 days with slightly higher than average UK reoperation rate. Lower than average number of ortho surgeries performed per day versus other UK hospitals is a factor of limited staffing (unable to cover illness, vacation, training coverage).Given demographics of region, current focus is on improving oncology treatment rate with little or no additional funds to support any initiatives to address orthopaedic waiting lists.


surge solution

Surge to have access to 1 dedicated theatre, 3 days per week (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), or two dedicated theatres on Saturday and Sunday for 3 session days, and access to 14 post op beds for 5 days (Friday to Tuesday). Surge to provide, in house, full-time, orthopaedic elective surgery support, including all staffing, consumables & incremental costs including all peri-operative costs.Surge solution includes: 43 FT nurses, 3 FT surgeon, 3 FT anaesthetists, 2 admin, 2 drivers, 3 physio & OT. [Variation would be for surge to provide the post op beds in our own units]. When using “two theatre” options Surge will provide 47 nurses, 5 surgeons, 5 anaesthetists, 2 admin, 2 drivers, 6 physio & 4 therapy assistants
