Crynodeb
The Chelsea and Westminster Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust wish to appoint Locum Consultant in Pain Management on the Chelsea site, to commence in June 2025.The post is to fulfil a gap in service manpower. There is the intension to develop a substantive post, but this will be a locum post for 6 to 12 months.
The Pain Medicine department provides approximately 2000 new patient consultations per yr and around 1200 interventions per year. The outpatient service runs every day and there is a theatre in the department with the aim of running interventional services every day. Delivery of clinical care is by default face to face but since the establishment of remote access a hybrid system is a possibility depending upon clinical need. The emphasis will be on holistic multidisciplinary approach to pain medicine and the successful candidate will be expected to work with the team to improve patient management.
We are looking to employ a 0.5WTE locum consultant in the first instance. The ideal candidate should have significant experience in managing complex pain patients and demonstrate experience of directly working with a wider specialty team of psychologists and Physiotherapists.
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 6,000 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 £25 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.
The Pain department at Chelsea and Westminster is a multidisciplinary team which includes 8 specialist consultants, Advanced trainees in pain medicine, 6 specialist nursing staff, 4 clinical psychologists, 1 trainee clinical psychologists, 3 AHP physiotherapists, 2 ESP’s. 1 Pharmacist.
WE offer a broad range of services in an integrated manner. We are a Neuromodulation centre and offer a range of therapy options.
The service is an integrated inpatient and outpatient one, with 2 consultants supporting the acute service, 1 supporting inpatient paediatric pain. The Nursing staff work both in the acute and chronic services and undertake supported outpatient clinics and treatments eg TENS and Capsaicin 8% Patches.
Development of the department through a shared vision and integration with the Imperial Pain service this will allow specialised services not currently in place to be delivered. We would expect new appointees to be actively involved with these strategies in a constructive integrative manner.
Priority areas to support and develop are
1- Spinal pathways
2- Transitional pain ( post discharge follow up – acute to chronic )
3- Cancer pain/ palliative care – we are developing a network approach in discussion with the `marsden.
4- SCS- delivered at Chelsea but possible involvement with this service if the appointee is interested in developing this further
5- Paediatric pain/ adolescent pain – transitional pain- currently only one consultant at Chelsea in this field who is networked with GOS.
6- Sickle cell
7- Pelvic pain/dysfunction.
8- Clinical research.
