The Showing we care campaign is designed to encourage everyone to think about their behaviour and how it affects patients, visitors and their own colleagues and, in turn, our services. A number of schemes are in place to help put these principles into practice, including In your shoes, which is an opportunity for senior managers to get an insight into the daily lives of colleagues. Non- Executive Director Jan Oliver, below, has worked as a cleaner and a catering assistant on the wards and in the kitchen, whilst Chief Nurse Eileen Sills has worked on the switchboard and as a recruitment assistant. We are also improving the information we provide to patients, launching a campaign to tell them what they should expect, and continuing to roll out new ideas to promote dignity, and respect for patients. to complement the work of other providers, so widening access for patients. With the absolute priority that the NHS rightly gives to the safety and quality of patient care, Guy’s and St Thomas’ is in a prime position to take a lead in providing excellence beyond our immediate local boroughs. We plan a future in which truly outstanding care remains accessible for our local borough populations but which reaches out to many more patients who need highly specialised services. This clinical strategy is well aligned with broader NHS priorities. Much Board attention has been given to specialist services at St Thomas’ which sit in the heart of London but are not comfortably located within a narrowly defined sector. In this centenary year of her death, our Showing we care initiative reinforces the example and teaching of Florence Nightingale. Her simple maxims “do no harm” and “treat every patient as an honoured guest” should always be at the heart of our values. While we are never complacent about performance, we believe that the staff who look after patients and their families strive to achieve these aims. As a leading Foundation Trust we need to set exemplary standards and I am daily grateful to those who share this ambition. Patricia Moberly Chairman Annual Report and Accounts 2009/2010 5 Directors’ 2 report Guy’s and St Thomas’ continues to deliver excellent patient care, whilst seeking to maintain a strong financial position that will allow us to drive forward quality and service improvements for our patients in the future. That said, striking a balance between quality and service delivery and a healthy financial position, with surpluses to reinvest, has proved increasingly difficult as the external financial environment has started to tighten.

  • BAOMS Travel Award 2018 Edited Photos- Project Harar
    BAOMS Travel Award 2018 Project Harar Report by Abi Estelle Established in 2001, Project Harar is a growing charity providing complex facial reconstruction surgeries to Ethiopians. The charity has a long term in-country presence with the cleft programme as well as an annual complex mission for the complicated cases that are encountered throughout the year. The annual complex mission begins with a two week pre-op phase. The patients are collected from their homes, usually they are from rural parts of the country, they often travel hundreds of miles to the capital city Addis Ababa. Over the first two weeks, the patients see a team of junior doctors and nurses (mostly from the UK) history and examination are completed as well as routine labs tests and relevant imaging. They also have supplemented nutrition over this time and most will gain several kilograms (one man gained 7kg!). I flew out with the surgical team to join the second two week phase. We arrived 6am on a Saturday and at 9.30am we began seeing the 61 patients who the pre-op team had already efficiently worked up. Their history was presented on powerpoint, they met the surgical team and were examined and then saw anaesthesia for an airway plan. On Sunday, we all met again to form the surgical schedule for the coming two weeks of operating. First, we allocated the large operations (5hours) time on the schedule, one such case in each theatre (one maxillofacial run by Prof McGurk and one plastics run by Prof. Martin). Any cases requiring sub-mental flaps or longer wound reviews were put in the first week.

  • Treatment of Noma: in BRIEF • Complex Facial Surgery Can Be Undertaken
    Treatment of Noma: IN BRIEF • Complex facial surgery can be undertaken on well planned short surgical missions. GENERAL • Malnourished patients have reduced medical missions in Ethiopia reserve and complications of surgery increase as a result. M. McGurk1 and R. Marck2 • Charitable missions should be carefully planned and undertaken by experienced individuals, otherwise a proportion of patients may be disadvantaged by the surgical mission. There is a long tradition in medicine and dentistry to support medical missions in developing countries where health care is limited. These journeys facilitate the spread of knowledge and can be voyages of self-discovery. In the past it has been customary to bring patients to developed countries for treatment. This policy has proved expensive as the medical costs incurred to treat a single patient in the UK can match the cost of sending a ten unit surgical team abroad for two weeks. 50 patients may be treated in this period of time so the pattern of practice is now for teams of healthcare workers to move to areas of need rather than the other way round.1 The diseases and deformity conditions that a body of 127 surgeons serves this commonly treated on such missions are whole population. Consequently there is a well-circumscribed conditions such as large contingent of patients with chronic cleft lip and palate, cataracts and fi stula or benign untreated diseases. surgery.2,3 It is unusual to tackle complex The visiting surgical teams work in medical disorders.
