1 Profile of Learning Opportunities (PoLO) for nursing and midwifery students in practice Practice Placement: Kinnier Wilson ward
2 Introduction to the Ward / Unit Welcome to: Kinnier Wilson Ward at King s College Hospital, named after Dr Samuel Alexander Kinnier Wilson ( ), who was first Professor of Neurology at King's As a 20 bedded ward, we provide specialist emergency treatment and care for people with brain and spinal injuries, before and after neurosurgery, and also for patients with neurological conditions. For example you may participate in the care of patients with the following conditions: Hydrocephalus Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Spinal compression Traumatic brain injury Multiple sclerosis (MS) Spinal cancer Neuro-oncology Sub-arachnoid haemorrhage As a multidisciplinary team, we work closely with our colleagues at Orpington Hospital: Frank Cooksey (on Rachel ward) and Ontario ward, for specialist neuro rehabilitation and therefore sharing expertise and best practice. With easy access to the emergency department, neuro imaging and other clinical diagnostic facilities, there is close partnership working with the London Ambulance Service (LAS) and paramedic teams. Location We are located: on the first floor of the Ruskin Wing, King s College Hospital, Denmark Hill Ward / Unit telephone: Welcome to the team Ward / Unit Manager is: Sr. Monique Clarke Monique.clarke@nhs.net Modern Matron is: Joyce Parkinson joyce.parkinson1@nhs.net Student co-ordinator is: Gillian Blackler Gillian.blackler@nhs.net Practice Development Nurse is: Sally Dodd sallydodd1@nhs.net

Provision of care is within an environment where compassion, courtesy and respect are fostered while taking into account individual cultural and religious beliefs. A culture of continuous learning is actively encouraged for all staff. This is seen as paramount to ensuring high quality patient care is delivered and is essential in supporting a highly competent team. We believe that our ongoing commitment to the patient, their family and support of each other is evident in our collaborative practice and high team motivation.
