About our Trust
Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is proud to be one of the top performing and safest trusts in England. We have two main acute hospital sites—Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and West Middlesex University Hospital, plus our award-winning clinics across North West London and beyond.
Our nearly 7,000 members of staff are proud to care for a diverse population of 1.5 million from the beginning to the end of life. Both hospitals provide full clinical services, including maternity, emergency and children’s, in addition to a range of community-based services across London, including our award-winning sexual health and HIV clinics.
We’re one of the safest and best performing Trusts in the country. We’re also one of the top trusts to work for—our staff say they’re engaged, motivated, and would recommend us as a place to work and receive treatment.
Our Trust has been rated by the Care Quality Commission as ‘Good’ in the domains of safe, effective, caring and responsive, and 'Outstanding' in the domains of well-led and use of resources.
Our facilities are among the best in the country. We invest around £10m a year in our estate and have recently completed a £30m expansion of our adult and neonatal critical care facilities at Chelsea and Westminster. Works commence in spring 2024 on an ambitious £80m development of an Ambulatory Diagnostics Centre at our West Middlesex site.
Applications are welcomed from applicants who wish to apply for the position on the basis of a smarter or flexible working arrangement. Where candidates are successful at interview, such requests will be taken under consideration and accommodated where the needs of the service allow. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you.
