Summary
A Vacancy at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
The Chelsea and Westminster Hospital Foundation Trust wishes to appoint a permanent Consultant in Paediatric Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery with a special interest in Neurodisability. The appointment will be 10 PA’s. The post will be predominantly located at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital site.
The paediatric orthopaedic department consists of a team of committed individuals who provide secondary and tertiary services for children with a wide range of orthopaedic problems. Multidisciplinary team working underpins the services that we provide and has been the foundation that has enabled us to develop and provide excellent care for children and young people with a wide variety and complexity of orthopaedic conditions. More complex patients require liaison with other teams within the division in addition to adult surgical specialties.
The Advisory Appointments Committee (AAC) will take place on 29th August 2024
The postholder will be expected to take a lead on running and organising the neuro orthopaedic service alongside the specialist physiotherapists. They will therefore be required to have a special interest in treating patients with neurodisability.
The postholder would be expected to participate in the current busy paediatric orthopaedic and emergency work of the department and participate in providing clinical and educational support to the extended scope physiotherapy practitioners. Multidisciplinary team working is fundamental to our provision of high quality paediatric orthopaedic care with an increasing tertiary workload.
We provide services from two main hospitals, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and West Middlesex University Hospital, and a number of clinics across London and the South-East. We have over 7,000 members of staff that are PROUD to Care for nearly one million people. Both hospitals provide full clinical services, including full maternity, emergency and children’s, in addition to a range of community-based services across London, such as award-winning sexual health and HIV clinics.
We’re one of the best preforming Trusts in the country. We’re also one of the top trusts to work for – our staff say they’re engaged, motivated, and would recommend us as a place to work and receive treatment.
Our Trust has been rated by the Care Quality Commission as ‘Good’ in all five of the main domains of safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led, giving an us overall rating of ‘Good’. We’ve also been awarded an ‘Outstanding’ rating for ‘use of resources’ by an NHS Improvement inspection.
Our facilities are some of the best in the country. We have been investing around £10 million a year in our estate. We are currently spending £30 million on expanding our adult and neonatal critical care facilities at Chelsea and Westminster and redevelopment of our children’s unit at West Middlesex – in partnership with our charity, CW+ and generous donors.
