We are excited to announce the opening of our state-of-the-art Orthopaedic Centre in Winchester, scheduled for July 2025. This new facility is a testament to our Trust’s ongoing commitment to enhancing healthcare services in the region and working collaboratively with orthopaedic services across Hampshire and Isle of Wight to serve patients across our communities.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic healthcare professional with relevant clinical experience and a passion for clinical education to lead the training and development agenda for the new Hampshire Orthopaedic Hub, located on the Royal Hampshire County Hospital site in Winchester.
We are looking for an experienced nurse/ ODP who is an enthusiastic, self-motivated individual with proven facilitation and leadership qualities. You will be involved in delivering an extremely high standard of care whilst providing support, training and education to our nursing, AHP and wider workforce across the HOC.
We recognise that education and leadership positively influence the quality of patient care, therefore you will work with key stakeholders to support the development and facilitation of a programme of education across the HOC, aligned to divisional priorities
The successful candidate will be expected to:
• Deliver hands on, face to face training to staff, in groups and one to one sessions
• Provide support and orientation for new starters
• Provide support to ward staff, identifying gaps in knowledge and working with individuals towards a competency framework
• Undertake assessment to confirm that staff have met the required standard of competence
• Act as a role model for provision of high quality and safe care
• Work closely with the Theatre Practice Development Leads across theatres in HHFT, ensuring requirements are prioritised and clinical standards are met and maintained
• Ensure a learning culture is embedded and is reflected in the delivery of education and training, ensuring learning from patient safety events, complaints, patient feedback is incorporated and adapted into staff training and development
This role has a clinical element and the post holder will be expected to support the service clinically within their area of practice.
Our vision is to provide outstanding care for every patient. Patient care is at the heart of what we do at our three sites: Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester and Andover War Memorial Hospital. Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust provides medical and surgical services to a population of approximately 600,000 people across Hampshire and parts of West Berkshire.
Our cultural ambition is to have a culture that places people at the heart of all we do, where we all belong, and where learning, improvement and excellence thrive.
The trust employs more than 9,000 staff and has a turnover of over £500 million a year. As a Foundation Trust, we are directly accountable to our members through the governors. The Council of Governors represent the interests of their constituencies and influence the future plans of the Foundation Trust.
