The significant expansion in the COE Department has been mainly underpinned by the expansion of front-line frailty services to achieve our Trust’s Frailty Pathway and provision of sustainable orthogeriatric and surgical liaison and perioperative services.

We are seeking to recruit dynamic and passionate Consultant Geriatricians who will join the existing team of five supportive and dedicated Consultant colleagues, all of whom embrace Trust values.

Our shared ambition is to deliver outstanding clinical care, high-quality services and strive to improve the care of our patients in the boroughs of Richmond, Hounslow and the surrounding areas.

This is an exciting time with departmental expansion and appointees able to directly influence and participate in the redevelopment of the services we provide.

Each post holder will have the unique opportunity to rotate across COE specialities and agree a personalised Job Plan.

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 safest and best performing 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.

In 2020 Trust was rated by the Care Quality Commission as Outstanding in the well-led and use of resources domains and Good in the safe, effective, caring, and responsive domains.  The Trust as a whole was Good, but the Chelsea site was Outstanding.

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.
