[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1710507248889{margin-top: 25px !important;}"] So what exactly are the TRUST values? In short, TRUST defines not only the way we deliver our services, but also how we treat our patients and inspire our colleagues to make a real difference. Established formally in 2021, these values are the essence of DMC's identity, proudly co-produced by colleagues, for colleagues, and are fundamental to our internal and external affairs. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1712047682091{margin-top: -100px !important;margin-bottom: -100px !important;}"]    T - We strive to create a strong sense of teamwork among each of our service lines. R - Respect for one another and importantly for the patient. U - Take the time to listen and understand the needs of our staff and patients. S - We are supportive and truly care about patients, customer and colleagues. T - Whatever we do, we do it together.   [/vc_column_text][vc_hoverbox image="15461" primary_title="" hover_title="" hover_background_color="white" el_width="90" css=".vc_custom_1712050771019{margin-top: -50px !important;}"] A trusted NHS partner since 1967 [/vc_hoverbox][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1710341311834{margin-top: -50px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;}"] How have we looked to uphold the TRUST values, and where might we see these in action? Our monthly People Stories articles shed light on the many individuals who ensure the performance of the wider company, and highlight those who are exceptional in their work and serve as a pillar for DMC Healthcare. From Sisters within our Endoscopy Service to the Heads of Operations in our Radiology Reporting and Healthcare units, we are lucky to have such a diverse and dedicated group of people who define DMC and our TRUST values. To read some of these, click here. We have also enjoyed reflecting our gratitude for our team members in several of our events in 2023. In particular, the Christmas Party - which was held local to our Chadwick Road and Crystal Palace Road surgeries - was an enjoyable evening where our whole team were able to reconnect in person and reminisce on a successful year over pizza, cocktails and dancing!

However, working at DMC has truly allowed me to grow and fly. It's really refreshing working for a smaller family run organisation - you don't feel like a number and you truly feel appreciated.  I feel respected by my peers and my ideas and opinions are listened to. We all look out for each other and offer advice and support. Outside work, I like good food and visiting National Trust properties and places of interest. I also love my cats (I am a self-confessed crazy cat lady), riding my bike and in the summer, you'll find me in my garden tending to my rose bushes or walking along a beach at sunset.

I joined the Air Cadets at 13 where I relished the fantastic experiences it offered and by 17, I had made the rank of Sergeant. I very much considered myself a patriot, so in the aftermath of 9/11, I set my heart on going to Sandhurst and becoming an officer in the Parachute Regiment. After developing a deep interest for media and current affairs at college, I started my degree in Media Studies at Worcester University whilst preparing myself physically for life in the infantry. In my final year, a family bereavement put my plans on hold and ultimately changed my life trajectory, which with hindsight, will have literally allowed me to dodge a bullet in Iraq![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="“My uncle put me on an unexpected and uncomfortable path”" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] My uncle Robin has always been my mentor and has taught me a lot of what I know about business, via his very successful access control company. I had already set up several small businesses of my own, including being an event promoter and Avon representative. Rob understood that I couldn't be tied down to a desk job and persuaded me that sales could offer me the variety and 'action' that I needed, as well as the fact that there was no better skill to learn in business. He started his career selling Kirby vacuum cleaners door to door and convinced me that this was the best sales experience he ever had. I followed in his footsteps knocking doors for British Gas. It was an unforgiving role, starting in a freezing Birmingham winter, travelling by public transport, but I stuck with it and after a week of trying, I finally made my first sale. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="``Robin was right``" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] Everything escalated quickly from that first sale, and within a few weeks I had become a keen student of sales psychology. I was promoted after 6 months, tasked with training new starters and was making good money for a university graduate! I became somewhat addicted to the buzz of my success and sales education. I ended up staying well over the 6 months I had originally planned and even won an award for being in the top 2% of advisors in the country at the year mark. At this point I was 'sold' and embarked on my sales career in earnest.

I learned a lot, and after several sizeable successes was promoted to internal sales manager and given field sales experience supporting the business development managers. The company also agreed to fund an Advanced Diploma with the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management (ISMM) which I relished despite the challenge.

I managed the south of England, dealing with large blue-chip clients, including car manufacturers, household name food and drug companies, the MOD, NHS and many more! In my mid-20's, this was all very exciting and a job I enjoyed immensely due to the pioneering tech and seniority of stakeholders I was dealing with. This passion was reflected in my performance, as I won several industry awards.

Now in my late-twenties, I felt that my RFID expertise and connections made it the perfect time to brand out and set up on my own. I started "The RFID Company" under Global Frequency Ltd, in partnership with one of the World's leading RFID experts who I had worked with extensively at DataScan, rolling out some of the World's largest RFID projects at that time. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="``Global frequency``" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] Our vision was to revolutionise the NHS with RFID. Using this pioneering technology, NHS hospitals could track their high value equipment and streamline processes with staff in real time across a whole hospital site. During my research, I learned that on average, a typical hospital loses £150,000 of equipment per year as well as having serious issues with tracing at-risk patients and infants. Alas, the NHS wasn't yet ready, but we developed some fantastic solutions for NHS mental health and Special Care Baby Units as well as having success internationally at Singapore General Hospital, where we introduced a SARS patient tracking system as well as pioneering systems in Australia and France. We also worked with large corporate companies such as Everest Windows and Ocado and randomly became a market leader in marathon tracking systems internationally! My colleague eventually had to step back due to health issues and I sold the company to our software partner. During this time, I also developed an events social media platform called Scenefly, borne out of my love of music events promotions. Our events company ran regular events across London including hosting the biggest boat party on the Thames for 3 years running! We launched the Scenefly site at 5 leading universities and attracted sponsorship from Casio and Relentless Energy Drinks. Alongside this, I set up a sales and marketing consultancy company and ended up being employed full time by one of my customers after deciding it was time to get back to what I enjoyed the most - being out on the road in front of customers.

I also loved working with nurses, I've always had the utmost respect for the work they do stemming from my grandmother and other prominent figures in my life being NHS nurses. They always continue to impress me with their hard work, empathy and often very humorous, infectious personalities. Around this time, I became particularly interested in infection control following 2 very serious hospital acquired infection incidents within the family. I researched and approached the Endoscopy Infection Prevention market leader Cantel and subsequently started a role covering the Southwest of England and South Wales. Many of the Sisters and Nurses I worked with during this time would become genuine friends who made me feel part of the family. Of course, there were business discussions and selling of products, but we shared a mutual passion for patient safety and creating positive clinical outcomes. This respect peaked during the genuinely scary time that came with the COVID lockdowns which rightfully made them national heroes! The big difference between my previous corporate experience and the NHS was that things are more personal within healthcare and by working in partnership with medical professionals, I really felt like we were making a positive difference and supporting the amazing work that the NHS does every single day. I very much enjoyed my time at Cantel, where a very consultative approach was required. I became a senior member of the team and became involved in developing nurse education programmes as part of a global training team. A recent acquisition then changed the patient focus of the business, which forced me to reconsider my future career path. After various interviews and job offers which didn't suit my aspirations, DMC Healthcare came out of the blue. I was immediately impressed by how motivated and driven the management team were, as well as the impressive level of clinical expertise derived from over 55 years of working within NHS. This combined with the very topical and pragmatic benefits of utilising insourcing and outsourcing models to reduce NHS waiting lists, made DMC an undeniable progression, where I could make a real and tangible difference to patients' lives. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="``Being human``" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] I've always employed a consultative approach, aiming to solve a problem by understanding it from a customer's perspective, more precisely, the near-limitless range of human perspective. However, one thing I've learned, is that no matter how unique we think we are, the vast majority need and want the same things in life, including to be listened to and understood. My belief is human altruism and empathy is a driving factor in my career and life. For me, the original and still arguably best self-help book, Dale Carnege's 'How to Win Friends and Influence People' put it best: 'Building genuine interest means walking a mile in your customers' shoes'. This book has inspired me greatly throughout my career and I still often use its principles even 20 years after first reading it. Of course, sales training has evolved a lot since the 1930's, something I've made sure I keep up to date with by attending courses annually and reading around the subject, as well as delivering my own.

The long-standing ethos that drives the company is impressive and inspirational, with a team that has the clinical experience and expertise to deliver 'frictionless' integrated services. This is reflected in the glowing praise we consistently receive from our customers. With an excellent strategy and solid foundation in place, I'm excited to be a central part of building on the successful DMC model and scaling the business steadily to ensure we don't need to compromise on quality.

When delivering training, I go to great lengths to sell the message that selling is much more about listening that it is talking, where the key skill is understanding your customer and tailoring your questions accordingly. Or as my first ever sales manager at British Gas put it: '2 ears one mouth'! Whether you're convincing a partner to go on a holiday, or selling yourself at a job interview, everyone is always selling in one way or another, so it's an essential skill to constantly work on. More generally, try to do what you enjoy. If you don't, then what's the point? life's too short to not enjoy your job, when you'll spend half your life doing it!   [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="15434" img_size="Large" alignment="center" css=".vc_custom_1709123056045{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}"][vc_custom_heading text="``Managing a healthy work-life balance``" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1708514464408{margin-bottom: -10px !important;}"] Nowadays my favourite activity is spending as much time as possible with my two favourite little people, Florence and Roman.

Besides getting kicked in the face, I'm a keen astronomer and history fan, and so happy for the kids to have recently wanted to start metal detecting! Of course I also enjoy socialising with friends and family, but generally I'm running around  in circles after the children these days!   [/vc_column_text][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1705487549735{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}"][vc_message message_box_color="alert-info" css=".vc_custom_1709123164786{margin-top: 50px !important;}"]Interested in joining DMC Healthcare?

However, I ultimately applied to medical school and successfully graduated in 1982. During my time as a trainee at King's College Hospital in London, I had the opportunity to witness advanced interventional radiology procedures. Captivated by the complexity of this field, I decided to specialise in radiology. Later, while working at Atkinson Morley Hospital in Wimbledon (part of St George's Hospital), I encountered Jamie Ambrose who worked hand in hand with Godfrey Hounsfield to create the world's first CT scanner. He was an exceptionally inspirational figure who encouraged me to specialise in neuroradiology.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="“My interest in neuroradiology began to grow”" font_container="tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] I had a particular focus on brain perfusion and complex MRI techniques such as spectroscopy and DTI.

Given that it was an emerging specialty, there were continuous advancements in the equipment and scope of work. My arrival at Cardiff coincided with the introduction of the MRI service and, over the years, we significantly expanded its capabilities. Our focus included the treatment of a notable number of patients experiencing acute stroke. I also held the role of chair at the UK Neurointerventional Group (UKNG), a special interest group of the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR).

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] DMC Radiology Reporting is a leading UK teleradiology company, established in 2013 and co-founded by senior radiologists, Professor Sujal Desai and Professor Simon Padley, in a joint venture with the DMC Healthcare Group. With a growing demand for radiology reporting and an insufficient number of radiologists to meet this demand, there is significant pressure to generate reports reliably and in a timely manner. DMC Radiology Reporting is proud of its meticulous and comprehensive auditing which surpasses the industry average. In his role as Medical Director, Dr Halpin bears overall responsibility for the performance of radiologists and governance structures. Dr Shawn Halpin says: "I chose to work with DMC Radiology Reporting because the company's ethos aligns better with my preferences, compared to other providers. There is a significant emphasis on delivering high quality reports via subspecialty radiologists. DMC is clinically led and by using dedicated subspecialists, we deliver higher quality reports than those generated from generalists who might not appreciate the nuances and management choices that are available." Professor Sujal Desai, Clinical Director and co-founder added: "DMC Radiology Reporting has a significant role to play in supporting the NHS reduce their waiting lists, particularly in the areas of complex radiology interventions in cardiac, thoracic or the brain. We are very pleased that Dr Halpin has joined our team to ensure the delivery of exceptional audit processes and continuous improvement." After graduating from King's College Hospital in 1982, Dr Halpin gained significant experience in neuroradiology, with a particular focus on brain perfusion and complex MRI techniques. He set up and ran the diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology service at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff for 24 years, significantly reducing mortality/morbidity rates. With a keen interest in medico-legal topics and specifically within the realm of radiology, he was motivated to pursue a master's degree in law in 2008. A recent story in the Telegraph described a scan that came through to Dr Halpin on a Saturday. He recognised a life-threatening condition and directly contacted the patient. This demonstrated the effectiveness of using a subspecialist clinical radiologist, who knew the patient needed an urgent operation and which hospital he should go to. He was also able to explain what the operation entailed and reassure him about the process. In October 2023, DMC Radiology Reporting was thrilled to receive a 'GOOD' rating by Care Quality Commission (CQC). CQC acknowledged DMC's strengths in implementing best practice and relevant guidelines, along with their respectful and supportive leadership in the service.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated teams for their unwavering commitment to our vision. Our 'TRUST' values, which embody Teamwork, Respect, Understanding, Support and Togetherness, have truly stood out. These values form the foundation of how we provide our services, care for patients, and inspire colleagues to make a difference." It was noted the service had sufficient staff with the right qualifications, skills, training and experience in undertaking interpretation and reporting. The Level 3 trained safeguarding lead proactively liaises with the relevant trust's safeguarding leads, creating bespoke approved safeguarding pathways. The service has a clear pathway for urgent findings and its audit process for managing the performance of radiologists was also a key highlight. CQC also underlined that the leaders ran its service well using reliable information systems and supported staff to develop their skills. Staff felt respected, supported and valued and were clear about their roles and accountabilities.

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] DMC Healthcare, a leading provider of dermatology, endoscopy and radiology reporting services, is working closely with Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for the provision of insourced dermatology services, including minor surgery and photo lesion clinics, to help reduce patient waiting times. NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) contracted with DMC Healthcare in October 2022.  [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="32"][vc_column_text] Jamie Hanlon, Divisional General Manager at Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, commented "We are really excited that we have an opportunity not only to improve patient experience but to significantly reduce waiting times by working collaboratively with an established community provider. This demonstrates the importance of working in partnership to ensure that patients are seen and treated in the most appropriate place by the most appropriate person." [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697206084731{margin-top: 35px !important;margin-bottom: 35px !important;}"] As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all routine dermatology appointments in the Hull Trust were temporarily suspended. Appointments for acute dermatology and skin cancer continued but waiting lists grew to around 3500 patients waiting for a first outpatient appointment, treatment or diagnosis. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697206458768{margin-top: 35px !important;}"] Mr Hanlon continued "We found that waiting times varied between acute and community providers, which was also impacting upon the speed with which some patients were able to access care. By strengthening our relationships with the full range of providers post-pandemic, we have been able to improve patient experience and reduce waiting times dramatically for people across our area." [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697206016216{margin-top: 35px !important;margin-bottom: 35px !important;}"] Unfortunately, some patient waits reached 104 weeks for treatment which would normally have taken 6 weeks. Patients can be reassured that no harm has been caused due to delays. Every other weekend, DMC run bumper clinics staffed by four consultants and a team of nurses. From a patient perspective there is no difference to the care they receive or the location they receive it. Many patients have appreciated being given a slot on a weekend, alleviating the need to take time off work. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="15"][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697211302888{padding-top: 35px !important;padding-right: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 35px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;background-color: #4f8cf5 !important;}" el_class="text-20 quote-text text-white"] The longest wait reached 104 weeks in Oct 2022. Now, in September 2023, the average waiting time for a first outpatient appointment is 5 weeks and average waiting time for treatment is 17 weeks* demonstrating the excellent progress that has been made due to internal efforts and the benefit of additional capacity from DMC, who are helping the Trust to bring the overall length of wait down. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="15"][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697213790432{margin-top: 35px !important;}"] Dr Ravi Gupta, Group Medical Director at DMC added "We welcome the opportunity to deliver insourced Dermatology Minor Surgery services with the Hull Trust. We are a trusted provider in the local area with experience and a track record for providing both community and insourced services nationally. Working with Hull, we are ensuring that patients receive the most appropriate assessment, diagnosis and treatment within the specified target times, as a result of the timely transfer of clinical and administrative information and appropriate monitoring of the patient journey" [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1697205950501{margin-top: 35px !important;}"] Every Trust across England has a target set by NHS England to reduce waits to 65 weeks by the end of March 2024. Hull is working in line with the constitutional requests and is successfully reducing their waiting lists. DMC’s photo lesion clinic is highly advanced and has proven extremely useful because for some patients not needing to have minor surgery, they have been given assurance that the lesion is ok and to adopt a watch and wait approach. This is fantastic for the patient and their own self management as they know they can contact DMC or the hospital if they have any concerns. Future plans being discussed involve establishing firmer relationships across the Integrated Care Board, expanding patient education, lesion management and embracing technical advances and AI for long term management.

The traditional pathway for skin cancer two-week wait referrals requires all patients to attend a secondary care dermatology department for a face-to-face appointment. However, we know that a significant proportion of patients referred have non-relevant skin lesions. In fact a local Trust told me the other day that of the 150 patients they see a week, only 4% are true cancer cases. So to manage suspected skin cancer two-week wait referrals in a more streamlined way, systems are being told to consider adopting a range of different services to meet local need. This includes the use of teledermatology for a new virtual pathway to significantly reduce the need for patients to attend hospital.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=".vc_custom_1696414640122{margin-top: 30px !important;}"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="Lesion Photo Clinics (LPC) – how does it work?" font_container="tag:h2|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%2323b9ce" google_fonts="font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:600%20bold%20regular%3A600%3Anormal"][vc_column_text]DMC’s Lesion Photo Clinic service is provided to patients through a Consultant-led service.

Now we are training HCAs to be LPC practitioners, developing their skills over several weeks, working with our Clinical Lead in telederm sessions, shadowing and once fully signed off, are working as LPC practitioners in charge of their own clinics working locally with their laptop, dermatoscope and phone. Divyank Subhedar joined DMC as an HCA in February 2023 whilst studying for PLABs to become a doctor in the UK and is now working as a LPC practitioner and really enjoying the responsibility and autonomy. “I’m doing a clinical masters in dermatology and did my undergraduate clinical training in India. DMC is a nice company to work for and the role of a lesion photo clinic practitioner is quite close to a clinical job whereby you get to interact with the patient, take the patient history and carry out the examination.   All the patients I have seen have been very happy with their experience. I’m able to show them the photos I have taken and they feel they have had an intricate examination of the wound or lesion. Every patient is important and although the % of cancer diagnosis is very low, if we feel that any lesion is suspicious we take it very seriously.   As a healthcare professional, one of the primary goals is to provide comfort, support, and information to patients. It's always a positive sign when a patient leaves an appointment feeling more reassured than when they arrived.” [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=".vc_custom_1696414640122{margin-top: 30px !important;}"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="The right people for the right job" font_container="tag:h2|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%2323b9ce" google_fonts="font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:600%20bold%20regular%3A600%3Anormal"][vc_column_text]The best thing about being able to develop people from within to new roles, is that colleagues really appreciate the training and career progression which aids staff retention.

We continue to innovate and support our clinicians to provide patient-centered care, developing multidisciplinary teams and employing evidence-based practice.

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] There is widespread recognition of shortfalls in the radiology workforce not only in the UK but also worldwide. According to the RCRi, the UK has a 29% shortfall of clinical radiologists, which is expected to rise to 40% in five years at the current trajectory without further intervention. The NHS Long Term Workforce Planii states that, by 2037, unless more is done, two-thirds of over 65-year-olds will have multiple health conditions and that, inaction in the face of demographic change is forecast to leave the overall NHS workforce shortfall of between 260,000 and 360,000 FTEs by 2036-37.  "It is a fact that the numbers of radiologists in the UK has never kept pace with the growth in other specialities." Not surprisingly, when considering the numbers of radiologists per 100,000 population, the UK resides perilously close to the bottom of the European league tables! Radiology, as a speciality, continues to grow in complexity. The days of simply reviewing x-ray examinations have long passed. The need for ever-greater specialisation in radiology is widely acknowledged. One area where this will certainly be true is in the field of lung cancer screening – as the NHS/government programme for ‘Targeted Lung Health Checks’ is rolled-out nationally, the need for highly-skilled and trained thoracic radiologists will grow.    The role of AI in Radiology   Much is spoken about the role of Artificial Intelligence (or AI) in medicine in general but in radiology specifically. While AI undoubtedly will have a role to play, the notion that AI will solve the workforce challenges is perhaps overoptimistic!  More likely than not, the radiologist of the future will be the radiologist working with AI than the radiologist replaced by AI. There is little doubt that AI has the capacity to make many tasks easier which, ultimately, will have a bearing on improved patient care. In my field of thoracic radiology, monitoring diseases frequently entails quantifying or assessing the extent of disease, a task that is inevitably prone to human error and between-observer variation. By contrast, AI does not suffer from such issues and can more reliably determine patterns of disease and changes in severity which is of particular value when monitoring. "AI algorithms are already showing considerable promise in quickly and accurately analysing medical images -- from plain x-ray studies to more complex CT and MRI examinations -- detecting abnormalities, highlighting potential areas of concern, and iding radiologists in making diagnoses. This capability extends across all domains of radiology." As with any new technology a degree of healthy cynicism must be maintained. The volume of data potentially generated by AI algorithm is seemingly voluminous, much of which may have no clinical / prognostic meaning.     [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1707828472732{margin-top: -50px !important;}"] Learn more about working with DMC Radiology Reporting DMC Radiology Reporting offers radiologists a chance to be at the forefront of teleradiology, in a company that is growing.

The reporting backlog of CT/MRI cases grew to a peak of 2800 but is now down to 600. North Cumbria Integrated Care (NCIC) NHS Foundation Trust provides health services to a population of half a million people with a shared vision to provide safe, high, quality care for our patients every time. The Trust awarded the Radiology Reporting contract to DMC Healthcare in 2022, due to their previous work in the area and their high level of quality. Work includes reporting 350 routine examinations per week and a greater number of exams that reside in a backlog for reporting. In addition, DMC carry out independent audits of radiologists to provide reassurance of the level of reporting throughout the Trust. Gemma Richardson, Lead Radiographer, North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust added “Like many other Trusts we experienced a backlog in reporting due to increasing demands and DMC Radiology Reporting has supported the Trust in reducing the backlog and getting it back down to manageable levels. They have been helpful and understanding and met the CT and MRI needs of the department and we are continuing to work with them.” DMC Radiology Reporting was founded by leading practitioners who sought to bring to market the service they themselves would commission. Subspecialist, clinically-led, UK-registered radiologists using the best reporting technology available are supported by a responsive operations team. Professor Sujal Desal, Consultant Radiologist at DMC Healthcare added “Having previously worked in the region, we are thrilled to have been asked to come back and support the Trust tackle their waiting lists and provide a quality service. We are looking forward to bringing efficiency, great patient outcomes and high quality care to the North Cumbria health system, and are fully focused on our commitment to vigorous clinical governance.” DMC’s “get it right first time” approach, saves time and money and they have enviably low discrepancy rates (below 1%), as verified by independent auditors. Their consistent and recognisable reporting house style and team of active consultant radiologists working in the NHS, enables seamless patient care. In addition, DMC is uniquely placed to support NHS targeted lung health checks, with a national subject matter lead and bespoke technology, meeting the demand for high quality, accurate reporting services across the UK.

I’ve always loved caring for others. Even at school, I would look after those who are smaller than me. The opportunity to go into nursing didn’t materialise and therefore I had a broad range of jobs including secretarial, working in a computer company, petrol station assistant, care worker and my final job was in a supermarket deli decorating cakes.

I knew I didn’t want to go back to the job I was doing previously, and I had to opportunity to do an access course in nursing and midwifery which I commenced but wasn’t able to complete, for a number of reasons. I applied for a HCA role in an NHS hospital. I excelled at the interview and in numeracy and literacy and was so happy to be selected for the job in October 2008 despite strong competition. On the first day of work it was a very hard shift, we were short staffed and I was new in the role. They told me to just follow them and watch what they were doing and eventually I got to know everything and went on study days.

I can tell a lot of things about patients. Having never had the opportunity to be a RCN, despite many colleagues telling me I would make a great nurse and because I’m nearly 57, I’ve lost the zeal to do it. So I opted for early retirement last year and my last day was 31 Jan 2022. In May 2022, I started back at the hospital part time. A doctor who was a family friend told me about DMC Healthcare and the HCA dermatology role and I thought it sounded really interesting so I started working with DMC part time in August 2022.

I would advise anyone to work at DMC as you may find it’s not as stressful as other roles, but you are making a real difference to people’s lives.

A workforce challenge like no other…! The current challenges in the NHS are unprecedented with ever-rising demand and a workforce struggling to keep pace. Staff shortages in many areas are nowhere more acute than in radiology: it is a sad fact that the UK lags significantly behind most of mainland Europe with only 8.5 radiologists per 100,000 population, compared to a European average of 13, based on latest estimates. The following Royal College of Radiologists’ (RCR) census data also make for grim reading: ~2000 full-time consultant clinical radiologist posts unfilled across the UK Consultant radiologist workforce is short-staffed by one third; 39% workforce shortfall forecast by 2026 (equating to 3166 full time radiologists) Delays in the reporting of radiology examinations results in long waits for patients and risks of delayed diagnosis 1 in 3 consultant radiologists experienced work-related stress The RCR is right to be concerned and the problem is compounded by a trend for experienced consultants being nudged to retire at the earliest opportunity, not least because of current punitive pension tax policies. Thinking outside the box & fostering new ways of working. It is a fact that teleradiology companies are now part of the NHS landscape; a majority of NHS Trusts now rely heavily on outsourced teleradiology reporting to cope with demand caused not only by the chronic shortage of radiologists but also backlogs exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The shift to ‘working from home’, so common during the pandemic, has serendipitously impacted on teleradiology practice — radiologists working for teleradiology companies overwhelmingly do so in their own time and generally from home. Increasing technological sophistication — for instance, the availability of cloud-based PACS — has further helped the teleradiology sector to evolve. I know that the teleradiology community helps to address this capacity shortfall; at DMC Radiology Reporting, we are proud of our ethos of working with GMC-registered/FRCR-radiologists with sub-specialty interests. “There has never been a time when departments need teleradiology more than they do today.”   Post Covid working practices have changed. With the continued use of virtual consultations at my Trust, we have seen a significant fall in plain radiographs, once part of the routine of coming to clinic. Paradoxically there has been a simultaneous significant (~20%) rise in the number of requests for CT examinations, showing that there has been no decline in the demand complex cross sectional imaging. Looking further afield. As with other teleradiology companies, the staffing crisis has pushed us at DMC Radiology Reporting to engage actively with independently-verified international partners. Progress has been made by the College in discussions with the Department of Health, leading to a welcome shift in perceptions about overseas colleagues. I am convinced there will be an important contribution to the UK radiology reporting workload by FRCR accredited radiologists working from home in other countries. These individuals, who have often worked and trained alongside us in our departments, will be held to the same licensing and professional qualification standards as UK-based radiologists in substantive NHS consultant posts. This paradigm shift has already started, with nighttime teleradiology cover being provided from the other side of the globe by radiologists working under much more suitable conditions than the middle of the night interpretations many of us have traditionally provided. The 2nd Royal College of Radiologists-Royal Brompton Hospital, ‘Masterclass in Thoracic Imaging’ 23-24 February 2023 All of the above highlights the ever-evolving need for good quality teaching. DMC Radiology Reporting Ltd are proud sponsors of the 2nd RCR-RBH Masterclass in Thoracic Imaging. This RBH thoracic imaging course has been running in a variety of forms for more than two decades. Discussions are already underway with our new international reporting partners for extension of this teaching to an overseas training academy. This reflects the direction of travel with RCR examination centres already operational in other countries including India, Singapore and Hong Kong The RCR-RBH course has been incredibly popular. This underlines our appetite, as a professional body, to return to Face-to-Face meetings. Thank you for joining us in February 2023. We look forward to seeing you in the near future!   [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] ### Event | DMC sponsor the RCR Thoracic Imaging Masterclass [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Thursday 23 and Friday 24 February 2023Cavendish Conference Centre, 22 Duchess Mews, London, W1G 9DT Join us here at the second in the successful Royal College of Radiologists-Royal Brompton Hospital Masterclass Series in Thoracic Imaging.  DMC Radiology Reporting Clinical Directors and course organisers - Professors Sujal Desai and Simon Padley - are senior cardiac and thoracic radiologists with a career-long history of service delivery, education and training.

Working in partnership with NHS Trusts, DMC Radiology Reporting delivers fast, accurate radiology reporting with innovation and efficiency, providing reassurance to the health Trusts with a rigorous commitment to clinical governance which sets the company apart.The clinical directors of DMC Radiology Reporting are career-long cardiac and thoracic radiologists with a long history of service delivery, education and training, mainly based at the Royal Brompton Hospital. In addition to organising courses, Professors Desai and Padley have a national and international reputation having been invited speakers and faculty members at numerous radiological and non-radiological meetings, with consistently high feedback. Professor Simon Padley explains: “We have been involved in education for over 3 decades. There are lots of courses out there. Some are good, some are really good. In this day and age, the organisers know only too well that it is very easy to sit in the audience and deal with your emails rather than follow the lecturer on the podium. So this course is designed to hold the attention of the delegate, with short relevant presentations concentrating on the elements that are really important, with content informed by feedback from multiple previous events. Face-to-face courses have key benefits, as well as short comings. We think most of us have missed social networking and the cross pollination that occurs face-to-face. We are certainly looking forward to returning to this tried and tested successful format!” Professor Sujal Desai continues: “Most of us who undertake general radiology spend a fair amount of time interpreting chest x-rays and chest CT studies, either in isolation or part as of multidisciplinary  working. We will need to understand the current issues in chest imaging, be it lung cancer, nodules, thromboembolic disease or interstitial lung disease. This course is designed to cover all of the hot topics and bring delegates right up-to-date. We feel this course has something for everyone be it consultants who need a ‘refresher’ and junior radiologists at an earlier stage in their careers’ This is the second in the Royal College of Radiologists-Royal Brompton Hospital Masterclass Series in Thoracic Imaging with an exceptional faculty covering important and state-of-the art topics in thoracic imaging. Feedback from the last Thoracic Imaging masterclass 86% of delegates felt they achieved their learning objectives for this event 94% of respondents participated in interactive voting and found that it enhanced their learning experience. A number of respondents said that after attending this event their confidence in reporting will have improved. Delegate quotes I have significantly increased my knowledge and confidence when reporting HRCT I got a good grounding in the concepts involved in chest CT I had a thorough review of interstitial lung diseases which was my main objective. In addition to this all other topics were covered in a great detail. I was able to understand the latest concepts about chest radiology It was fantastic! Friendly and knowledgeable speakers This course is excellent and has helped me understand the pathology of chest disease and how it is translated into imaging, how to determine the different patterns of disease and I learnt of new pathologies we do not encounter in DGH setting. The delegates that attend this course should, at the end, feel fully up-to-date with the current issues and have also consolidated their knowledge in a range of important areas for chest imaging.   [/vc_column_text] Thoracic Imaging Masterclass: Thursday 23 and Friday 24 February 2023 Course Organisers Professor Sujal R Desai & Professor Simon Padley Sign up here This two-day course is the 2nd in the Royal College of Radiologists-Royal Brompton Hospital Masterclass Series in Thoracic Imaging.

Quite early on I developed a passion for research which led to my first job as a researcher in a dermatology lab at the renowned university hospital in Leipzig, Germany. This included 2 years of research in Toll like receptors (TLR) and 8 months of research on TLR signalling at BC Cancer Centre, Vancouver, Canada. I returned to Germany and started my formal dermatology training at the renowned University Hospital in Erlangen, Bavaria in 2007. I was there for 7 years, being trained in all aspects of Dermatology, including minor surgery. I also had 2 children during that time. Following a rigorous oral exam, I qualified as a Specialist in Dermatology and Venereology in 2014 and an Allergologist in 2016 and started to work in the community more.

They are really hard working and go the extra mile to support me in my clinic and of course the patients. Communication is superb - Patient queries can be handled without delay. There is good communications between admin teams and the clinicians. Digital and IT systems – their systems are excellent, for example if a prescription is missing, I can easily do it from anywhere in the world, as they provide laptop. Or I can do it for a colleague. Everything is paperless unlike other places where you have to manually write one out. Here I just send it to the patient’s pharmacy and we don’t need a printer, saving time. Digital dictation – this allows you to complete patient notes straight after the appointment and it substantially increases the quality of the letter which is sent to the GP and the patient as well.

Endoscopy is a high priority core service, integral to the diagnosis and treatment of digestive cancers and other serious gut and nutritional disorders. With significant waiting list pressures, endoscopy departments continue to have under capacity, coupled with endemic workforce gaps across clinical and admin/IT teams. DMC Healthcare has been providing NHS services since 1967 and our partners entrust us to deal with high risk patient groups. I run the endoscopy department, ensuring the service is clinically safe, following the protocols set out by JAG[1] and BSG[2], in coordination with the local Trust. I’m also involved in recruitment, auditing and policy development. Originally from the Philippines, I’ve made a name for myself in the insourcing world since moving to the UK in 2010. Joining DMC in June 2022, I soon recognised that DMC really looks after the welfare of everyone involved and the DMC leadership team have their heart in what we do - they really care. Staffing remains a major concern for Trusts, whether that be insufficient numbers or the wrong skill mix of staff, which results in cancelled lists and increased patient anxiety. My number one priority is to focus on providing a safe, high quality endoscopy service with people at the heart. I’ve been given the freedom to grow in my role as a service manager and I’m really pleased that all our nurses are now 100% compliant with their training. This means we are helping the NHS do their procedures more rapidly after referral, cutting down patient anxiety and improving detections of cancer. Nurses are so integral – an endoscopy service couldn’t run without the nurses – we are part of the team who looks after the patients and we have to be technically proficient to assist in endoscopy cases. We’re proud to be supported by our clinical lead Dr John Devlin, Senior Consultant Gastroenterologist at Kings College Hospital, who is dedicated to quality, governance, education and continual improvement. We deliver on average 12-14 points per list with enhanced clinical outcomes. Our end-to-end admin and clinical solution increases productivity through process refinement, enhanced bowel prep, reduced DNA rates and increased patient satisfaction.

This blog explores how DMC Radiology Reporting are meeting these challenges. Tanya Singh, Head of Radiology Operations and Business Development at DMC Radiology Reporting, is passionate about ensuring the highest quality of reporting. She explains “Our customers in the NHS and independent diagnostic centres have very specific needs. We work hard to ensure that our reports are in line with agreed standard templates and that the clinical question, stated in the referral information, is answered first time. This maximises efficiency for both us and our customers, but it can only be done by having the right radiologist reporting the right study at the right time” Tanya Singh - Head of Radiology Operations and Business Development In 2013, Professor Simon Padley, Professor Sujal Desai, Dr Ravi Gupta and Anil Gupta co-founded DMC Radiology Reporting. The company has been growing ever since, focussing on a sub-speciality, high-quality outsourced reporting model. It is a fact that radiology departments across the NHS are at breaking point. According to the Royal College of Radiologists Census, the consultant radiologist workforce is short-staffed by ~30% of the required number of posts. More worrying is the 39% workforce shortfall forecast by 2026, equating to 3166 full time radiologists. Delays in the reporting of radiology examinations results in long waits for patients, not to mention the risks of delayed diagnosis. Not surprisingly there are knock-on effects on radiologists across the board: indeed, the data suggest that 1 in 3 consultant radiologists experienced work-related stress. Tanya continues “DMC Healthcare has recently recruited 15 radiologists. We are continuing to recruit more radiology team members, to increase capacity and meet the requirements of our clients. We have also grown our administration team to bolster our internal resources to better deliver our services.  Our teams work closely and benefit from a family-oriented ethos which encourages openness, better working relationships and a supportive environment. We are heavily investing in the right technologies, keeping a close watch on emerging AI tools, and constantly seeking the right partners and the resources to take DMC Radiology Reporting to its next level of development.” Find out more about working with DMC Radiology Reporting by contacting Tanya Singh, Head of Radiology Business and Operations, tanya.singh@dmc.local ### People Story | Adrienne Christie | Dermatology Team Leader for Service Coordinators and Call Administrators [vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/2"][vc_custom_heading text="View Adrienne's story here " font_container="tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_btn title="Download " link="url:http%3A%2F%2Fdmc.local%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F10%2FDMC_Staff_Stories_Adrienne-Christie.pdf"][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/2"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="“I love my job, my team is very supportive and we work well together”" font_container="tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text="“I started off my career running a café at 18 years old”" font_container="tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%2322b8cd" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text] Throughout school and sixth form I worked at a café.

As the first person in a very large Italian family to go into medicine, I’ve always been interested in science and I took this direction as I like the scientific method and the rational view of the world. I went to the university in Rome. The first 3 years cover general medicine and in the last three years I began to specialise, with a growing passion for applied science in the management of the human body and skin diseases. The career path is very long and I saw that dermatology takes into account clinical and surgical but also research. I learnt that dermatology requires quite versatile skills, is very eclectic and the clinical eye is very important. Another important part is there is a lot of connection with other medical conditions and you are able to prevent as well as cure systemic diseases.

We focussed on pronouns, preferred names, gender expression, romantic/platonic attraction, discussing why there are higher rates of alcohol and drug abuse, loneliness, domestic abuse, and wider health inequalities. We also attended a youth pride event featuring Ellie’s journal. At the end, we gathered tons of feedback and ideas.

Insource Ltd, the leading elective care solutions and data management provider to the NHS, is delighted to welcome DMC Healthcare, a leading independent provider of primary care, dermatology, endoscopy and radiology reporting, as its most recent managed services customer.  Reporting-as-a-Service (RaaS) allows patient-level activity data to be gathered from the multiple source systems across DMC Healthcare locations and provide fully validated, automated KPI activity reports.  This data allows DMC Healthcare to accurately report their performance against contract directly to their NHS commissioners . Starting with the dermatology data, Insource will provide monthly activity reports against contract Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for each of their NHS Commisioners, as well as national Referral-to-Treatment (RTT) waiting list dataset reporting, all to the required operational and national data quality standards.  Insource will also provide community services invoicing data, by clinic and consultant, and weekly PTLs (Patient Tracking Lists) for care management. A strong provider in the NHS ecosystem, DMC Healthcare has played a significant role in service delivery since 1967, helping to reduce health inequalities. From being at the sharp end of the patient journey by delivering fast, accurate radiology reporting, consultant-led dermatology and in-sourced endoscopy services, DMC Healthcare remains committed to supporting the NHS by adding capacity and helping reduce waiting lists. DMC Healthcare fully believe that service management should be digitised where possible to provide more holistic care and is intent on maintaining clear lines of communication with all its commissioners. As Pritika Gupta, Corporate Strategy Director at DMC, stated, “Our primary aim is to ensure complete openness and transparency with our NHS commissioners.  We needed a detailed understanding of our activity levels to ensure care is being effectively delivered across all our services.  We wanted to ensure we were meeting our targeted new referrals, minor ops, follow ups and triage rates. With Insource we now have accurate, validated submissions that pinpoint exactly what care we’re delivering, where and when.  We will now be able to use this consolidated, uniform picture for effective capacity planning and business management.” DMC Healthcare has always sought to be at the forefront of data and innovation and has strived to find a new solution provider for their data management and reporting processes. Pritika Gupta continues, “We were delighted to find Insource.  Their proven data platform is in use throughout the NHS and it can be deployed in bite-sized modules and easily configured to our specialty community needs. Leaving the data management to the experts has paid off for us as we are able to uncover unforeseen issues, that are now being corrected almost in real time. Insource is giving us more confidence in our data and we look forward to a long and collaborative association.” The initial plan is to roll out across dermatology first, then endoscopy, radiology reporting and other community services. Already DMC Healthcare is looking to the next phase where they can create a single unified version of the truth from all their data for detailed operational management. DMC Healthcare is a strong believer in clinical and information governance and are wanting to link into their existing Datix patient safety/incident solution and with Insource’ powerful data governance capabilities, to begin the journey to becoming a truly data-driven organisation. DMC Healthcare like other specialist providers, have many of the statutory and mandatory reporting requirements commensurate with larger NHS hospitals.  At Insource, our solutions are powered by a configurable data automation platform, so they can be provided as a managed service honed against the specific needs of individual hospitals, specialty trusts or independent providers. Our most popular services Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) and Reporting-as-a-Service (RaaS) provide all the operational data management and reporting expertise of larger organisations as a packaged automated service, so smaller healthcare providers can have the same level of proficiency without the technology investment outlay. Jackie Sawyer, Insource Independent Sector Director, stated: “The team at DMC Healthcare is a pleasure to work with as they completely get the importance of what can be achieved with accurate, on-demand data and appreciate how data automation makes this possible and affordable. They needed data confidence and we’ve already been able to give them that.  Our data platform automates complex data acquisition, consolidation and validation processes from their disparate source systems – including EMIS and SystmOne – and produces the accurate reporting outputs tailored to their needs. And whilst their primary driver was to improve the accuracy and timeliness of their reporting, they also see a broader vision of what’s possible.  With unified data DMC can not only see activity against contracts but will also be able use this data for their own insight and view activity to steer the growth of the company.” ### News | DMC Healthcare launches its new internal values – TRUST At DMC Healthcare (DMC) we have taken active steps in the last year to enhance the current governance arrangements and formalise a robust reporting process. This has progressed well, with many of our colleagues inputting into the process, and as part of this review it was agreed to revisit the Vision and Values held by the organisation. Coproduced by colleagues, our TRUST values reinforce that what we do is built on strong teamwork, respect for one another and importantly respect for the patient, we take time to listen and understand everyone’s needs, we’re supportive and truly care and whatever we do, we do it together. The group also collaborated to design a logo that will help remind our staff of what our 5 values are. Our TRUST values underpin the way we deliver our services, treat our patients and inspire our colleagues to make a difference. They are the essence of the company’s identity and set DMC apart from others. Our Group Managing Director, Anil Gupta created a video that was sent to all colleagues across DMC as to what the values mean to him.   https://vimeo.com/639984037 ### Resources | Menopause Symptoms Questionnaire This can be used to monitor symptoms and is worth doing regularly to assess how symptoms change with time or with treatment.

The walk will start at DMC Church View Practice to DMC Sheppey Healthcare Centre via DMC Iwade Health Centre, in Kent. The idea was initiated through a conversation “How we have not met colleagues Face to Face” since working remotely through the Covid Pandemic. We believe that our Mental Health is extremely important and the walk is a great way to support Mind UK and ourselves with our Mental Wellbeing. We have also been championing “Ellie’s Journal”, the story of young woman who raised awareness on mental health through her thought-provoking social media posts. Find out more about Ellie’s Journal here. We have Mental Health Nurses available at our practices to support our patient’s mental health needs. Mind UK offers information and advice to people with mental health problems and lobbies government and local authorities on their behalf. We welcome all donations via our Just Giving Page. We have received a lot of interest from the local community and would like to thank Eurovia and Apollo painting contractors for sponsoring the event and South East Water and House of Fraser Maidstone for generously supporting the event. DMC directors and DMC staff members from each of the practices will be there in unification. Members of Kent & Medway CCG will also be joining us. Thanks also to the amazing volunteers and marshals who will be helping us on the day. If you would like to help, please email info@dmc.local ### People Story | Helen Greengrass | Operations Development Manager [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Happy Retirement to Helen Greengrass who has served 18 years with DMC Healthcare! [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row top_margin="page-margin-top"][vc_column][vc_column_text]What is the highlight of your time at DMC?I have done so many different roles at DMC and I enjoyed them all. I joined DMC as Projects and data. Sarah Parsons introduced me to you [Anil], I had an interview with you Anil and Charlotte, the then Practice Manager, when Pritika was very young. I took on the Assistant Practice Manager role working with Raj, dealing with patients and complaints. Then went to Business Development (BD) Team in the portacabin, was part of the MOMS, founder member with Raj, Charlotte, Naresh, Ravi and Anil. Then went to Ops with Deborah and Sabina, onto inform and evolution then mobilisation. Back to the BD Team and here ever since. We’ve had some big wins in the Business Development Team. I was also involved in Vita Sana for a bit too.I wasn’t a big fan of change before I came to DMC, but I have certainly learnt to adapt to change which has been really good for me.Going to India was a great highlight. Loved the experience and the amazing trip. Saw so much, met so many lovely people and did many lovely things. Loved the whole trip to India and I am very grateful.I also set up yoga classes at DMC Crystal Palace Road and then DMC Chadwick Road.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]What would you say is DMC?A round overview of DMC from your perspective.Innovative, fast moving, always challenging, always interesting, always changing, fast growing.It was just one surgery to start with, in the space of 18 years look at everything that has happened now. Fast growing indeed.Family values which are important to me, I enjoyedthat coming from a corporate background. Different and challenging to begin with but I have really enjoyed being part of the family, the DMC family.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]What message would you like to leave your colleagues?Helen: I have met so many lovely people since working with DMC. I would like to say that they all contribute to the success we’ve had over the years and that I will miss them all. Every single person brings their own contribution to the company.Anil: DMC has been maturing as an organisation. We are more mature today than we were 18 years ago. My message would be, keep on maturing, do not give up. Take it to where it should be. It should be a fantastic organic family rather than just a corporate carbuncle.Helen: So, mine would be to carry on contributing. Making your individual contribution. The sum of the parts is greater than the individual and it works that way. The more people proactively contribute the more people get out of their work and career.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]What advice would you give to people just starting their careers?You get back what you give. If you give of yourself to a job, then you will get that back in terms of reward, job satisfaction, respect and reward from your colleagues. And learn as much as you can. If you are asked to do different things just do them as that is how you will learn and grow and develop.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]What will you miss the most?Working with people. My colleagues and my work. If Iwasn’t at home, I would really miss the head office, the vibe and environment. The validation of working withother people, camaraderie.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]What are you looking forward to when you retire?Helen: I keep saying to people who ask me, I am looking forward to not having any plans. For years I have had the routine of going to work. For someone who likes routine it will be good for me not to have that for a while. See where life takes me, hoping to travel who knows when that will happen. Spend more quality time with friends and family. I would like to do some coding for DMC. Volunteering in the food banks.Helen: Because I am very sedentary, I am looking forward to being more active. Walking, swimming, being out. So, I am not sitting all the time. Who knows if I will do any or all of these things!Anil: I would not mind having you as a non-exec director. You are the person I come back to for advice.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Will you be throwing a retirement party?Helen: No, you will. *laughs*Anil: When my dad retired, he said ‘tell me what you want me to do, and I’ll attend’.Helen: Right, I’ll butt out now, put my marker down.Anil: What I miss being at CPR is going down to the pub and organising some drinks and crisps. You have your own list of attendees apparently. *laughs*Helen: That was called the Upland Tavern then. I would love for your dad, Dr Senior Gupta, to be there. I’m inviting myself to my own party!Anil: It’s about having people there that mean something to you. It will be lovely.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Delivering Healthier Outcomeswww.dmchealthcare.co.uk[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] ### News | Ellie's Story | A Mental Health Campaign [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] At DMC Healthcare we take your mental health seriously, with Mental Health Nurses available at our practices we aim to support our patient’s mental health needs.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A personal tragedy inspired me to retrain as a HCA and help others When I left school, I trained and worked for 18 years as a chef in outside catering where I cooked for the Queen, Sultan of Bruni and in livery halls in London. I also worked in restaurants and schools to tie in with my family life and latterly as a school meals auditor for the local CCG. Then something happened that dramatically changed my career. I lost my mum to cancer in 2007. Seeing how the hospital and ambulance staff looked after my mum so brilliantly made me want to help other people.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Helping others has always been in my nature, but my loss spurred me on to change my career I continued with my auditor job and at every spare moment I volunteered for St John’s Ambulance on emergency call outs as a technician, whilst carrying out extensive training. Looking back, it was a distraction from dwelling on my loss. I later secured a fulltime role.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]It wasn’t a struggle to learn - it came naturally Next, I worked on a hospital cardiac ward and that’s where I did my qualification as a Healthcare Assistant. It was a very rewarding role, although it can be quite heart breaking when you lose a patient. It was also quite different, providing meals, washing, dressing, taking observations and lots more. The only problem was the abuse encountered from difficult patients so after nearly 3 years I looked for a new challenge. It was at this time I needed an operation for a pituitary gland tumour which then led to me contracting meningitis in hospital. What should have been a 3 week recovery meant I was off work for 3 months. Unfortunately, I couldn’t cope with the nights anymore and it affected my memory and attention span initially.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]After a DMC taster interview I was hooked – I really wanted this job I then saw an advert for DMC and carried out a taster interview which involved watching a minor surgery and that was it – I was hooked! I made contact the next day and said I really want this job. I may not have taken the role if it was a routine dermatology clinic but when I attended the minor surgery clinic, I said yes I want to do this. So I joined DMC Healthcare in August 2017 as a Healthcare Assistant (HCA) and after about a year into the role, I was offered the post of Lead HCA and now manage a team of up to 6 HCAs and provide cover for our contracts in the north.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The dermatology environment is so interesting We start at 8.00am - an hour before the clinic. We set up the IT equipment and if it is a minor surgery, we need to make sure we have the packs, blades, punch biopsies and cleaning equipment all ready. During the day we assist the surgeon. We produce the patient letters, carry out patient surveys and make sure the patient is ok. Then we clean up and go home. In normal times, we do this with 40-50 patients a day. During Covid, we are still seeing 40 patients but they are not all face to face appointments – some are virtual whereby the patient sends in their photos and the doctor calls them.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We see the young, the old and the in-between which makes it so interesting It’s fascinating that you can actually see the difference we make to the moles, dermatitis, psoriasis and eczema whereas other conditions are invisible.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Some patients are really grateful and give you fantastic feedback On one occasion, one of our doctors was ill so another doctor agreed to see their patients, but that involved a bit of a wait. So I went out to the shop and bought them all a chocolate bar. Everyone was grateful that they were able to be seen and have a sweet snack whilst waiting.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We’ve got a very close team – they’re brilliant There is never a problem with contacting anyone, at any time. We respect each other and always have each other’s back. So I feel DMC really supports me. They are always contactable - nothing is too much of a bother.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]My future is definitely as a HCA I have a forever job in my head and that is a HCA in a GP practice. This would allow me to concentrate my time in one location. As for outside of work, I love going to the gym and spending time with my 2 year old Grandson.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]DMC is so supportive As I mentioned, there is always someone to talk to if there’s a problem. It was nice to receive two cards in the post from the Chief Executive thanking me for my work and support. If there’s a problem, we discuss it as a group and there is no blame. If I can help others out, I will. If I can’t, I find a way – I’m good at solving problems.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]If you are interested in a career at DMC Healthcare, contact ????

I was particularly interested to see the priority being placed on primary care mental health services, which is an area I prioritise in Parliament. I was pleased to have the opportunity to meet with Alice and to hear of her experience as a patient of DMC and the support the practice has provided and I am grateful to her for sharing her story.”  DMC Healthcare opened its first GP practice in 1967 in Dulwich and in 1994, the Health Secretary at the time opened the new state of the art building for Dulwich Medical Centre on Crystal Palace Road. Today it is a thriving, modern building supporting over 9,000 patients in the Dulwich area.   Nadeem Moghal, CEO, DMC Healthcare added “It was excellent to hear Ms Hayes say that it is those providers that have deep roots in the community that deliver better for patients, which chimes very well with our values and of course DMC Healthcare is deeply embedded in the community, founded in Southwark in 1967.”   “The visit revealed a very real sense of team working along with a strong passion for the work we do despite the challenges. The powerful impact the team has on patient lives doesn’t always come through in discussions with commissioners and regulators which are very much numbers-driven, so it was great to highlight the positive, life changing stories in amongst all the challenges.”  DMC made the decision 7 years ago to invest in community psychiatric nursing despite there being no central funding for a primary care model of this kind.   Kate Murphy-Morris, lead Mental Health Nurse explained how the multi-disciplinary approach at DMC has proved transformational. “DMC was the first practice to invest in a mental health nurse, 7 years ago, embedding mental health care within primary care. Access to mental health care is immediate, appointments are bookable on the day, with no lengthy referral routes which is revolutionary and covers services for children, adults and older people with any mental health concern. We promote psychological and self management strategies as well as medication following the evidence-base.”   “With Covid we have seen a big increase in anxiety and depression due to people being very socially isolated. So we have been proactively reaching out to people to offer support. We also help people with serious mental illnesses look after their physical health which is important, given their greater physical health morbidity. We do lots of important mental health promotion in the surgery. I see this as an essential role in primary care, yet it is very rare.”   Patient Alice Luetchford described the support she has received from DMC and how she has lived with depression and anxiety for 15 years “I've never been as mentally well as I have since I've worked with the mental health nurse. She was there and supportive when other services aren't, and the practical, day-to-day strategies and techniques suggested by her are crucial for returning to and maintaining positive mental health. Encouraged by Kate, I have used painting as a self-care strategy for my mental health and am currently exhibiting paintings as a thank you which is displayed in the DMC surgeries to help brighten up your day.” Watch a video interview with Alice Luetchford at our Chadwick Road practice here To find out more about Alice's artwork please visit: https://www.aliceluetchfordartist.com/To follow @AliceLuetchford via Twitter   The practice team discussed how they have coped during Covid, with an enduring focus on patient safety and supporting each other: Dr Gertrud Buerstedde, GP lead, who has worked in the NHS for 30 years, described how DMC’s innovative approach to digital health has provided an essential foundation for supporting patients during lockdown. “Covid has meant that services had to change overnight. Face to face contact with patients has been replaced where possible with digital healthcare, telephone and video consultations, home working, electronic prescribing and home monitoring.”  Meenakshi Battu, Practice Manager, is keen to ensure all colleagues are well equipped and supported during Covid. “Changes have been so frequent due to revised NHS guidance and we quickly developed a hot and cold hub site ensuring the safety of staff and patients in vulnerable groups. With the help of our efficient team, we provide proactive care to our high risk patients.”   Cecilia Thompson, Health Care Assistant, 11 years at DMC added “Making sure patients are fully supported is my key aim. My role includes ensuring we have adequate PPE at this challenging time, calling patients to make sure they are supported at home with shopping and medication, and if they just want someone to talk to, we can refer patients to a befriending service.”   Marjorie Simpson, Practice Nurse, has worked as a nurse in the NHS for over 50 years and joined DMC in 1999. “It was mind blowing to see how DMC immediately put Covid support systems in place, making sure no patient was left out, for example through our pharmacist. Patients also are very grateful to still be able to get their child immunised or get their dressings done, which in turn releases pressure on hospitals.”  About   DMC Healthcare is a leading provider of primary care, radiology reporting, consultant-led dermatology services, endoscopy and community services to the NHS. We run GP surgeries in 13 GP practice buildings across West Kent, Southwark, Maidstone, Medway.

There is no evidence to suggest their regular use on the skin increases the risk of acquiring or transmitting coronavirus. However, wash your hands before you apply your treatment creams to your skin.  Alcohol gel and frequent soap and water hand washing will aggravate some people with hand eczema. To reduce the need to hand wash, wear disposable non-powdered gloves, but change them if your hands become sweaty underneath the gloves. Also carry around your own hand cream to moisturise your hands after you have washed them.  Soap substitutes may not be as good as ordinary soap at killing coronavirus when hand washing.

Our service is founded on the principles of patient-clinician trust and respect. All of our services are CQC-approved, and we adhere to stringent clinical governance guidelines.

(DMC, the organisation) are Controllers of the personal data we hold. DMC is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as a Data Controller; registration numbers can be found by searching the ICO Register using this link. DMC takes your privacy seriously and aims to provide you with information about your rights, with whom we share your information, and how we keep it secure. How we use your information (our ‘Purposes’) DMC collects and uses your information for the following purposes: To provide you with healthcare when you visit our Primary Care, Dermatology, Endoscopy, Radiology Reporting, or similar, services (including recording for training and legal defence purposes). To provide our services and report to our Commissioners about the service we provide to you. To anonymise and use your data for research into better care and practice. To keep our patients, visitors, and staff safe when visiting the site with the use of CCTV, for example. In the sections below, we will provide more detail about what we collect, what we use it for, and our lawful basis for using it.  The UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR or GDPR) defines several lawful bases, and Controllers must specify on webpages such as this one which lawful basis we rely on when using your information. To provide you with healthcare What do we use your information for?  Your doctor, radiologist, dermatologist and other health professionals caring for you, such as nurses and reception staff, need to keep records about your health and treatment to provide you with the best possible care. These records are called your ‘health care record’ and may be stored in paper form or on computer and other electronic systems. As part of this, we use your information to: Refer you to other healthcare providers when you need other service or tests​ Discuss or share information about your health or care with other health or social care providers Share samples with laboratories for testing (like blood samples) Share test results with hospitals or community services (like blood test results) Allow out-of-hours or extended hours’ GPs to look at your health record when you are going to an appointment Send prescriptions to a pharmacy Text you in relation to healthcare services and appointments Provide your samples to the courier for delivery to pathology Share reports with the coroner Receive reports of appointments you have attended elsewhere, such as with the community nurse or if you have had a stay in hospital Produce medical reports on request from third parties such as the DVLA or your employer, but only when you have provided prior consent Movement of your patient records to Primary Care Support England  What information do we collect?  We collect the following: Basic details about you, such as address, date of birth, NHS number, and next of kin ​Contact we have had with you, such as clinical visits Notes and reports about your health Details and records about your treatment and care Results of x-rays, laboratory tests, etc. Information about your sexual life or home life Information about ethnicity and religion  What is our lawful basis for using your information?  Healthcare providers are permitted to collect, store, use and share this information under Data Protection Legislation (the UK General Data Protection Regulation), which has a specific section related to healthcare information. This is called a ‘lawful basis’. Where we are deemed to be a Data Controller, our lawful basis for using your personal data is UK GDPR Article 6(1)(e) – a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority.  We have an NHS contract to provide our services. We can also only use your health and other ‘special category’ or sensitive information if we apply an exception.  These are in the UK GDPR, and we use Article 9(2)(h) – for the provision of healthcare. Please be aware that administrative staff will often access information addressed to a particular clinician to allow us to manage high volumes of communication. They are bound by confidentiality in the same way as the clinician and will keep your information private. About children and young people Young people aged 16 and over are allowed to make decisions about how their health information is used and shared. They are deemed competent from this age to make decisions about their own healthcare. Under these circumstances, unless the young person agrees, a parent or guardian will not be provided with information about the care of the young person. Where the young person is under 16, case law allows the healthcare professional to decide that the individual is competent enough to make a decision about their own healthcare.  Equally, under those circumstances, a parent or guardian will not be provided with access to information about the care of the young person. Conversely, if a health care professional deems that the young person under 16 years of age cannot make the decision themselves, then parents or guardians will be invited into the discussion. Parents or guardians of those under 16 should note that the application of competency (sometimes called Gillick competency) may apply to some or all elements of the confidential information about the young person. To provide our services, report to our Commissioners and contribute to national NHS data sharing initiatives  What do we use your information for?  Along with activities directly related to your care, we also use information in ways that allow us to check that care is safe and provide data for the improvement and planning of services.

DMC are passionate about patient care and improving our community dermatology service, MSK and Endoscopy services, but sometimes things can go wrong. If you are unhappy with your care or the service you have received, it is important to let us know so we can improve. There are a few ways to tell us what you think; HCA survey Friends and Family test  Website to call DMC clinics directly  Email Giving feedback Health Care Assistants will offer each patient an electronic survey to complete within their appointment. This feedback is shared with our local commissioners and helps us improve the quality of our care. In addition to this, patients can share good or bad feedback through the Friends and Family Test. A text SMS message is automatically sent to each patient after their appointment. Most problems can be dealt with at this stage but, in some cases, you may feel more comfortable speaking to someone directly involved in your care. Please call the clinic where you were treated. You will find the direct telephone numbers for clinics here: dmchealthcare.co.uk/clinics Alternatively you may want to send an email to DMC.feedback@nhs.net outlining your experience, the DMC clinic of your treatment and the best contact details and times to discuss further.  Your email will be acknowledged within 3 days. Please allow 25 days for DMC to respond.

(DMC, the organisation) are Controllers of the personal data we hold. DMC is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as a Data Controller; registration numbers can be found by searching the ICO Register using this link. DMC takes your privacy seriously and aims to provide you with information about your rights, with whom we share your information, and how we keep it secure. How we use your information (our ‘Purposes’) DMC collects and uses your information for the following purposes: To provide you with healthcare when you visit our Primary Care, Dermatology, Endoscopy, Radiology Reporting, or similar, services (including recording for training and legal defence purposes). To provide our services and report to our Commissioners about the service we provide to you. To anonymise and use your data for research into better care and practice. To keep our patients, visitors, and staff safe when visiting the site with the use of CCTV, for example. In the sections below, we will provide more detail about what we collect, what we use it for, and our lawful basis for using it.  The UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR or GDPR) defines several lawful bases, and Controllers must specify on webpages such as this one which lawful basis we rely on when using your information. To provide you with healthcare What do we use your information for?  Your doctor, radiologist, dermatologist and other health professionals caring for you, such as nurses and reception staff, need to keep records about your health and treatment to provide you with the best possible care. These records are called your ‘health care record’ and may be stored in paper form or on computer and other electronic systems. As part of this, we use your information to: Refer you to other healthcare providers when you need other service or tests​ Discuss or share information about your health or care with other health or social care providers Share samples with laboratories for testing (like blood samples) Share test results with hospitals or community services (like blood test results) Allow out-of-hours or extended hours’ GPs to look at your health record when you are going to an appointment Send prescriptions to a pharmacy Text you in relation to healthcare services and appointments Provide your samples to the courier for delivery to pathology Share reports with the coroner Receive reports of appointments you have attended elsewhere, such as with the community nurse or if you have had a stay in hospital Produce medical reports on request from third parties such as the DVLA or your employer, but only when you have provided prior consent Movement of your patient records to Primary Care Support England  What information do we collect?  We collect the following: Basic details about you, such as address, date of birth, NHS number, and next of kin ​Contact we have had with you, such as clinical visits Notes and reports about your health Details and records about your treatment and care Results of x-rays, laboratory tests, etc. Information about your sexual life or home life Information about ethnicity and religion  What is our lawful basis for using your information?  Healthcare providers are permitted to collect, store, use and share this information under Data Protection Legislation (the UK General Data Protection Regulation), which has a specific section related to healthcare information. This is called a ‘lawful basis’. Where we are deemed to be a Data Controller, our lawful basis for using your personal data is UK GDPR Article 6(1)(e) – a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority.  We have an NHS contract to provide our services. We can also only use your health and other ‘special category’ or sensitive information if we apply an exception.  These are in the UK GDPR, and we use Article 9(2)(h) – for the provision of healthcare. Please be aware that administrative staff will often access information addressed to a particular clinician to allow us to manage high volumes of communication. They are bound by confidentiality in the same way as the clinician and will keep your information private. About children and young people Young people aged 16 and over are allowed to make decisions about how their health information is used and shared. They are deemed competent from this age to make decisions about their own healthcare. Under these circumstances, unless the young person agrees, a parent or guardian will not be provided with information about the care of the young person. Where the young person is under 16, case law allows the healthcare professional to decide that the individual is competent enough to make a decision about their own healthcare.  Equally, under those circumstances, a parent or guardian will not be provided with access to information about the care of the young person. Conversely, if a health care professional deems that the young person under 16 years of age cannot make the decision themselves, then parents or guardians will be invited into the discussion. Parents or guardians of those under 16 should note that the application of competency (sometimes called Gillick competency) may apply to some or all elements of the confidential information about the young person. To provide our services, report to our Commissioners and contribute to national NHS data sharing initiatives  What do we use your information for?  Along with activities directly related to your care, we also use information in ways that allow us to check that care is safe and provide data for the improvement and planning of services. Quality/ payment/ performance reports are provided to service commissioners Undertaking clinical audits locally to ensure safety and efficiency Sending practice information to other NHS bodies for national audits that are required by law (e.g., NHS Digital Audit Data Collection) Sending patient information to NHS Digital for research and planning purposes. Find Out More about how Patient Data is Used for Planning Research. You can opt outif you wish. Supporting staff training Incident and complaint management As part of adhoc clinical research – information that identifies you will be removed, unless you have consented to being identified  What is our lawful basis for using your information?  When we use your information to conduct audits and manage our services to you, our lawful basis is UK GDPR Article 6(1)(e) – a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority.  When use your health information for this purpose, we rely on the exception of the management of healthcare systems in Article 9(2)(h). When we anonymise your information to use it for an adhoc clinical research purposes, we rely on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) to understand and develop new methods of care for individuals and the research exception in Article 9(2)(j). Do we transfer any of your information outside of the UK? For your radiology service, we employ the services of Apollo Radiology International (ARI) to provide out-of-hours support and to allow us to provide an around-the-clock service. Radiologists are based in India and have ‘view only’ remote access to your personal data through the same systems (based here in the UK) that our UK radiologists use.  No data is allowed to be taken out of the system, and we have strong security controls around access. All radiologists are registered with the Royal College of Radiologists. As required by UK GDPR, we have put contracts in place with ARI (called International Data Transfer Agreements) which are mandated by the Information Commissioner’s Office, and which protect your personal data. To help keep our visitors and staff safe  What do we use your information for? DMC Healthcare Ltd. use CCTV at specified locations to protect patients, staff, and visitors from abuse or crime. CCTV footage is commonly used as a deterrent and can assist police if necessary. DMC Crystal Palace Road Medical Centre (SE22 9EP) DMC Chadwick Road Surgery (SE15 4PU) Within these premises, areas which have CCTV coverage include: External front & rear entrance Points External car park areas Reception & patient waiting rooms Common corridors Head office (all levels) For DMC Healthcare Ltd. to support with providing healthcare services, it is lawful to implement measures to safeguard individuals on the property and guarantee the safety of both staff and patients. What is our Lawful Basis? Under UK GDPR, our lawful basis for the use of CCTV is Article 6(1)(f) – legitimate interests. DMC has also ensured that the CCTV is only in place in the more public areas of the premises and that surveillance does not extend to clinical / consulting rooms or washrooms where privacy for individuals is expected.  CCTV recordings are kept securely for 28 days. A copy of the recording within this timeframe can be requested, and you can raise concerns with our Data Protection Officer. Sharing your information when required to by Law We will occasionally have a legal obligation to share your information and will not always be able to discuss this with you directly. Examples might be for the purposes of detection or prevention of crime, where it is in the wider public interest, to safeguard children or vulnerable adults, reporting infectious diseases, or where required by court order. Care Quality Commission access to health records The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has powers under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 to access and use your health information when necessary to carry out their functions as a regulator. This means inspectors may ask to review certain records to decide whether we are providing safe, high-quality care. More information about the CQC can be found on their website. To share information with the CQC, we will rely on the lawful basis of UK GDPR Article 6(1)(e) – a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority, and Article 9(2)(i)  of ensuring high standards of quality and safety of healthcare. Suppliers we use to support our Services (Data Processors) We use several providers who process your personal data on our behalf.  All providers are bound by contract to keep your information safe and in line with UK GDPR requirements.

One of the difficulties for small GP practices today is handling time consuming operations work whilst also trying to deliver excellent care for patients. Working with DMC enables GPs to concentrate on delivering a personalised local care service whilst inheriting the resources and operational expertise of a larger organisation. DMC has its roots in Primary Care, and we are determined to play a part in forging its future. Our vision for the modern surgery is a clean, smart looking premises - one that is both welcoming and assuring for patients. Services should be digitised where possible and integrated with other local care functions to provide patients with the most holistic, convenient care experience possible. DMC now operates more than a dozen practices in London and the South East. We have been able to take over struggling and challenged premises, turning services around and securing improved CQC ratings. We have also extended our services, such as Radiology Reporting, Dermatology, Endoscopy and MSK. How we can help you manage your GP or CCG healthcare requirements?
