CONSULTANT DIRECTORY OF SERVICES www.epsom-sthelier.nhs.uk/for-gps-and-clinicians August 2015 WELCOME I am very pleased to introduce this directory of services which gives up-to-date, easy-to-access information about the services we provide at Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust. The Trust provides acute hospital services for approximately 480,000 people living in the boroughs of Merton, Sutton, Epsom & Ewell, Reigate & Banstead and Mole Valley. We also deliver services from a number of other locations in the local community and across a wider area. We run the South West Thames Renal and Transplantation Unit, including nine renal dialysis centres across south-west London and Surrey. In addition, we host the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre (EOC) on the Epsom Hospital site as a joint venture with three neighbouring trusts. This guide will help you identify who provides what service and where. We are committed to improving communications with primary care colleagues and working with them to improve the quality of health services available to our local populations. We produce a dedicated e-newsletter for GPs and primary care professionals, e-doctor , and a section of our website is specifically for GPs and practice managers. It includes detailed information in our consultants’ directory and the latest news on education events. http://www.epsom- sthelier.nhs.uk/for-gps-and-clinicians Our GP Liaison Office, is a ‘one-stop shop’ for information and assistance on a wide range of issues including sorting out day-to-day issues and facilitating care pathway redesign processes. The GP Liaison Office can be contacted by email at [email protected] or by calling our GP hotline on 020 8296 3434. With this directory, we have tried to give as concisely as possible key information about the Trust’s services – who provides what, and where – focusing principally on outpatients but also giving an overview and contact details for other services such as the EOC, acute medical units and private patients’ services. We hope you find it useful and welcome any feedback for improvements in future issues. Kind regards, Daniel Elkeles Chief Executive MAKING A REFERRAL Introduction The Trust is committed to making the referral process easy, efficient and reliable for both you as the GP and for patients. Our aim is to ensure that all patients waiting for an outpatient appointment, diagnostic test, elective or planned admission are managed in line with National Waiting List Guidance, the NHS Constitution and the NHS Operating Framework. This includes patients with a suspected cancer diagnosis. Referrals E-Referrals - where possible all referrals should be made using the e-Referral system as this provides a clear audit trail for both primary and secondary care. Please ensure you attach the referral letter and any support information eg optometrist report. Central Registration – for those services not available to book through e-Referral, there is now a central registration office based at St Helier Hospital covering Epsom, Sutton, St Helier and Queen Mary’s Hospital for Children as well as any hospital services at community hospitals.

The service we offer includes a half day introductory education programme, multidisciplinary assessment, an eight week group pain management programme, or individual programmes and therapy. The clinical staff at COPE include a physiotherapist, nurse and clinical psychologists, all specialists in understanding and managing chronic pain. The services at COPE use an interdisciplinary cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approach to the management of chronic pain. We aim to help people to understand their pain and to improve their quality of life by learning and putting into practice a range of self-help strategies. Our aim is not to cure the pain, but to reduce the distress and disability that pain causes.
