Chief Medical Officer Services
The rounded experience of Kensington OH Specialists enables us to fulfil a Chief Medical Officer role within companies on a flexible basis. This gives clients access to high-level opinion and advice as and when required, without the need to employ a full-time member of staff.
Our Chief Medical Officer Services include advice, via telephone, email or in person, on:
- Occupational health strategy
- Medical governance issues
- General health matters, sickness absence and rehabilitation
- Management of specific cases referred by HR managers, including review of documents by telephone or face-to-face consultation
- General OH matters
- We also offer training for HR managers, line managers and OH staff
Occupational health services
Case referrals
Clients forward a referral letter outlining the background to the case, the person's job description and any previous medical reports. Kensington OH then arranges a consultation and produces a report.
Occupational health advice
Kensington OH provides assessments and medical opinion backed up by factual evidence, on long-term or short-term absence and fitness for work.
Ill-health retirement advice
Applications in this area are generally for chronic conditions. Kensington OH Specialists consider physical, psychological capability, and social factors influencing an individual's capacity and motivation to return to work, and provide appropriate recommendations.
Reports from cases where we have acted as Independent Medical Examiner are scrutinised by a second occupational physician to ensure quality, fairness and accuracy of opinion.
