Senior Mdt Co-Ordinator Paediatric Spinal & Orthopaedic Surgery Evelina Childrens Hospital
CurrentI organise the Multi Disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings for the following specialities to ensure the children get the best care:- spinal, complex orthopaedic, neurosurgical/ spinal/skeletal dysplasia and I have also been helping with the Pims-TS MDT meeting, liaising with infectious diseases, cardiology, paediatrics, PICU and other teams. I organise and attend the spinal surgery pre-assessment MDT clinic every week. I also organise a virtual physiotherapy session for patients having spinal surgery in the next 2 to 3 weeks. I book patients into a virtual respiratory clinic to assess them before their spinal or orthopaedic surgery, the outcomes are fed back to the MDT and I ensure cardiology referrals are sent if a review is needed before surgery. I am a line manager, managing 3 staff, ensuring they have support when needed, regular 1 to 1"s, PDR reviews, access to training and IT access also. I am proud to work with such a great team, and we cover for each other when needed and support each other.
