Uniform

Avoid travelling to and from work in Trust identifiable uniform, not leaving the premises in scrubs and covering up uniform when escorting patients.

False and acrylic nails are not permitted and nail polish (clear or coloured) must not be worn by any clinical staff.

For clinical staff hair should be neat and tidy and worn off the face and above the collar. Longer hair should be tied in a way which keeps hair off the collar

Whilst wearing uniform staff are only permitted to wear a plain wedding band, one pair of stud earrings and a plain nose stud. All other jewellery, necklaces and bands should be removed for clinical shifts and whilst in clinical areas.

Professional Image

Dress and appearance are important factors in promoting the Trust professional image and gaining confidence and Trust with patients and the public. All staff are therefore required to dress appropriately to present a professional image.

The following items of clothing are examples which do not promote a professional image:

·         Casual wear such as sports T-shirts, leisure shorts, combat trousers, jeans, baseball caps etc.

·         Overly tight, see through or revealing clothing such as micro or miniskirts, tops with plunging necklines or that expose the midriff or underwear.

·         Clothing bearing any slogans or symbols which could cause offence.

·         Denim clothing such as jeans.

·         Excessive jewellery (may include large rings, ear or nose rings) causing distraction from the advice or care provision to patients.

·         Visible tattoos are discouraged. Where present they must not cause offence to others. Where they are deemed offensive they should be appropriately covered.

The full uniform and dress code and uniform policy can be found on the intranet.

Our values — Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The Trust has launched its values to patients and members of the public to demonstrate the standard of care and experience they should expect from any of our services.

# data[].attributes.body
Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust provides 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.

The two hospitals formally joined forces to become one NHS Foundation Trust on 1 September 2015, and the are nearly 6,000 members of staff who care for approximately one million people locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. The integration has been recognized as one of the best nationally.
Both hospitals provide full clinical services, including maternity, emergency care and children’s and young people, in addition to a range of community-based services across
London, such as award-winning sexual health and HIV clinics.

Maternity

We are passionate about the quality of care we provide and our woman-focused approach looks at the individuals needs throughout each and every stage of their pregnancy. We provide maternity services at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, West Middlesex University Hospital and in the community, supporting around 12,000 women a year who give birth with us. Service users  can choose to plan to give birth at either of our hospitals or at home.

Latest updates about COVID-19
In line with planned changes to government COVID-19 restrictions, you can now have a second support person attend for labour and birth. They will be asked to complete the health declaration form and will only be able to be present in the birth areas. Only one support person is able to be present in theatre. You can also now have one person accompany you, if you feel that it is essential, to any of your pregnancy outpatient and scan appointments. This includes early pregnancy services and all midwifery and obstetric appointments in outpatient clinic settings.
In order to continue keeping everyone safe we ask the following:

If you wish to bring someone with you, we ask that it is the same person throughout your pregnancy journey, and confirm:

they are free of any symptoms of COVID-19

if they have had COVID-19, they must have completed their period of isolation

that you haven't been advised to self-isolate in the last 14 days when returning from travel abroad

We ask that you and your support person do a lateral flow antigen test 24 hours before your routine appointment and continue to complete these twice a week as recommended by NHS England. Your midwife or doctor will ask you to verbally confirm your test result on attendance at your appointment.

We will ask your support person to wait in a separate area or outside until your appointment begins. You will need to immediately call this person to come inside when your appointment begins to avoid clinics running late.

We ask for your help to comply with the above. This is because space in many of our women's health departments is limited and they can get very busy.

Please do not bring any children or other people with you to any appointments.

Please note: We are unable to maintain 2-metre social distancing in all our outpatient settings-in particular, the waiting areas. While you are welcome to bring your support person to all appointments, please consider whether this is essential to you. Reducing the number of times your support person comes with you will help us keep everyone safe.

Thank you for your help and understanding.

We are passionate about the quality of care we provide and our woman-focused approach looks at your needs throughout each and every stage of your pregnancy. We provide maternity services at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, West Middlesex University Hospital and in the community, supporting around 12,000 women a year who give birth with us. You can choose to plan to give birth at either of our hospitals or at home.

We aim to provide the best possible experience for mothers, babies and families, and are truly delighted that so many women not only choose to return to us for second and subsequent births, but also recommend us to family and friends.

The majority of women experience very normal pregnancies and birth journeys and we have a full range of options for maternity care. As well as our fantastic midwifery-led care we also provide an excellent obstetric model of care to include specialist support for more complex pregnancies and health conditions with an excellent fetal medicine unit. We are very proud of our teamwork ethic, where staff work together to plan and deliver one-to-one care tailored to the needs of individual women.

As a team we support each other across our two hospital sites and, although you will book at one of our hospitals, there are times when you may receive certain aspects of your care at our other hospital site. We will let you know should the need arise.

Together with our state-of-the-art facilities and initiatives that go beyond immediate health and care needs-for example, our complementary therapies service-we continually strive to give babies, parents and families everything they need for the best start in life.

Did you know?

More than 9 out of 10 women would recommend our maternity services at Chelsea and Westminster* and West Middlesex** hospitals.

* CW NHS Friends and Family Test score Nov 2018
** WM NHS Friends and Family Test score Nov 2018

Our service users rated us 9 out of 10 for labour and birth in the CQC Maternity survey (published Jan 2019).

Getting referred

To book your care with us you can either get referred by your GP, walk into our antenatal clinics at the hospitals, refer from the early pregnancy unit (EPU) or complete our self-referral form:

Care Information Exchange (CIE)

The CIE is a web application provided by PatientsKnowBest (PKB) that gives patients access to their health (medical) records, which can be updated by the patient and shared with different medical teams and carers to help speed up and improve treatment.

Your information is held in the secure NHS network. It will only be used by healthcare professionals for your direct care. You can choose to share your care record with your family, carers, GP and other health professionals if you wish.

Safe in our hands

Our high quality, evidenced based, safe and nurturing care is provided by a team of dedicated healthcare professionals who centre the service around your individual needs, in line with our Trust PROUD values.

In collaboration with our North West London partners, and as part of our maternity transformation plans to implement the NHS five year vision, Better Births, we are working hard to ensure you have continuity from your care providers with good access to information that will enable you to make your own decisions about the care that is right for your own needs and circumstances.
