The (FINCH) Faecal incontinence and constipation health care at Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust is an award winning service both locally and nationally. It comprises of 2 colorectal consultants, 3 Clinical nurse specialists, 2 surgical care practitioners and a team secretary.
Research and audit function of the service has become more developed over the last years. We believe it is imperative to not only market our service but also to identify how our services are cost effective and efficient at meeting the needs of our local population; and support the Trust in achieving waiting time standards.
We are currently seeking sponsorship due to service expansion and demand. We are seeking annual funds in the region of 100 000 GBP per annum (and above) with additional added value fund for a contract period of 4 years.
