This post is based at St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington, part of the West London Children’s Alliance (WLCA) and provides the general paediatric in-patient service plus many sub-specialities including allergy, nephrology, neurology, haematology, infectious diseases as well as surgical specialities (general paediatric surgery, orthopaedics, ophthalmology, ENT, and urology). There is support available from Westminster CAMHS. The patient acuity and complexity is unusually high and many children have severe underlying health problems or neurodevelopmental problems.
The Paediatric Short Stay Unit (PSSU) provides short stay in-patient care (anticipated to be <72 hours) and ambulatory care. Patients can be referred for intravenous antibiotics if these cannot be given in the community. There is a high volume of outpatient reviews including nurse led clinics and GP rapid referrals, and review slots for Infectious diseases, ENT, dermatology and diabetes.
Westway Ward manages day-case procedures, including surgical day cases and radiology investigations.
Outpatient clinics include general paediatrics and a wide range of sub-specialities. There is an active child development service with speech & language, physiotherapy and occupational therapists as well as psychologists.
There is a separate rota for Paediatric Emergency Medicine, Paediatric Intensive Care, Haematology and neonates on site.
The fellow will divide their time between inpatient, outpatient and out of hours work.
