Crynodeb
Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC)
Located next to Ealing Hospital, the CDC will allow patients to access planned diagnostic care nearer to home without the need to attend acute hospital sites. These services will be separate to urgent diagnostic scan facilities, allowing shorter waiting times and a reduced risk of cancellation which can happen when more urgent cases take priority.
The CDC will help achieve the following ambitions:
To improve population health outcomes by diagnosing health conditions earlier, faster and more accurately
To increase capacity in the diagnostic service by investing in new facilities, equipment and training new staff, contributing to recovery from COVID-19 and reducing pressure on acute hospital sites
To improve productivity and efficiency by streamlining the way we provide acute and elective (planned) diagnostic services where it makes sense to do so; redesigning clinical pathways to reduce unnecessary steps, tests or duplication.
To contribute to reducing health inequalities by ensuring everyone has the same access to care and the same health outcomes.
To deliver an improved diagnostic service and more personalised experience by providing a single point of access to a range of services in the community.
To support more joined-up care across primary, community and secondary care.
Although the CDC will be you base site you will be expected to rotate across the other 3 sites of the Trust at Ealing, Central Middlesex and Northwick Park Hospitals.
