The position is attached to the Department of Clinical Neurosciences . This department provides care to patients of all ages, children and adults, suffering from neurosurgical, neurological, ophthalmological and otorhinolaryngological conditions. Care is tailored to the needs and difficulties of the patient, from the most acute sectors (intermediate care units) to rehabilitation sectors (neurorehabilitation).

The department's goal is to help patients regain their autonomy through education, support and outpatient follow-up. It ensures both the operation of patients and their support to promote early discharge home. In the same spirit, outpatient care is also prioritised and surgical activity optimised to facilitate access to care within a reasonable timeframe.

The Otorhinolaryngology and Cervicofacial Surgery Service provides comprehensive diagnostic, therapeutic and psychological care for patients, newborns, children, adults and the elderly, suffering from ENT disorders ranging from sensory functional disorders (hearing, balance, olfaction, taste), or motor disorders (facial paralysis, laryngeal paralysis, swallowing disorders) to organic lesions (infectious, malformative, benign and malignant tumours).

The service has an 18-bed hospital unit, a surgical block with 5 rooms, an outpatient care unit, a polyclinic, a new audiology and vestibulometry platform, and a daytime emergency reception service, 5 days a week.
