West Middlesex University Hospital

West Middlesex University Hospital West Middlesex University Hospital is part of Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, one of the top ranked and top performing trusts in the UK.

Our Trust employs more than 6,000 staff over our two main hospital sites, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and West Middlesex University Hospital, and across 12 community-based clinics within North West London. We pride ourselves on providing outstanding care to a community of over 1.5 million people. Both hospitals have major A&E departments, treating more than 300,000 patients each year. The Tru

st is the second largest maternity service in England, delivering more than 11,000 babies every year. In partnership with our hospital charity CW+ we build and enhance clinical facilities to create an outstanding care environment for our patients and for our staff. We are growing our existing portfolio of innovation projects and our reputation in this field, to become a national leader for innovation within the NHS. We aspire to provide locally-based and accessible services enhanced by world-class clinical expertise. Our excellent financial and operational performance is a source of great pride to us. It is nationally recognised and sees us simultaneously achieving our financial plan while continuing to be one of the best performers against the national access standards for accident and emergency (A&E), referral to treatment (RTT) and cancer. Through the Health and Care Partnership (HCP) in both North West and South West London we work as a wider health system to drive improvements to care, and to deliver integrated care in Hammersmith and Fulham, Hounslow and West London and beyond.

Throughout Dementia Action Week, colleagues across our Trust came together to raise awareness, challenge stigma and support everyone affected by dementia.

The Dementia Team hosted a series of interactive events across both hospital sites, giving staff the opportunity to learn more about dementia care, ask questions and explore resources designed to support patients living with dementia. There was even a special visit from Atticus, the therapy dog!

Last week, we marked Sun Awareness Week and celebrated the launch of our partnership between the Trust, our charity CW+ and La Roche-Posay with a panel discussion and AI skin-check event attended by stakeholders, media, and medical influencers.

Chaired by Caroline O’Neill, Managing Director for L'OrΓ©al Dermatological Beauty, the panel featured Dr Lucy Thomas and Dr Louise Fearfield, consultant dermatologists at the Trust. They shared their expertise on improving skin cancer prevention and highlighted the impact of AI-driven teledermatology at the Trust to date.

Our patient advocates delivered a powerful message: faster assessment not only saves lives but also significantly reduces the anxiety associated with waiting and uncertainty.

This partnership demonstrates the value of NHS and industry working together to support research, education, and improved patient access, with a shared goal of enhancing long-term health outcomes. Read more:

These important days recognise the dedication, skill and impact of colleagues working across maternity, nursing and theatres. πŸ’šπŸ’œπŸ’™

For this, the Trust hosted their first ever Nursing and Midwifery Conference at Hounslow House on 11 May, showcasing the unique and collective contributions of various projects led by our nursing and midwifery colleagues that make a difference to patients, teams and communities.

At West Middlesex Hospital, the Nursing team hosted a variety show event with various nursing staff showcasing their talents through singing, dancing and guitar performances.

There were also ward deliveries throughout the week, where special treats where given to our nurses, midwives and ODPs.
