The Oxford Centre for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (OCMR) warmly welcomes and supports new members of staff. We are a friendly and approachable department with a strong sense of team working and high standards of care. OCMR forms part of the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine (CVM) within the Radcliffe Department of Medicine at the University of Oxford and specialises in Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the heart, liver and brain. The department has three MRI scanners; two of which are dedicated to research, a third which is used to support a diagnostic clinical cardiac MRI service for NHS patients from within the Oxford University Foundation Trust and surrounding areas. The post holder will report to the OCMR Lead Radiographer and work closely with the radiography team, as well as medical teams, reception staff, and nursing team, to meet the needs of the clinical MRI service. With training and support, the post holder will develop their skills as a senior HCA to assist with day-to-day activities within the department. Based in OCMR, the post holder will be responsible for planning and carrying out straightforward clinical activities; preparing NHS patients for MRI, carrying out magnet safety checks, cannulation and post procedural care. They will work within their given scope of practice and will follow a designated framework to achieve competency in a number of specified clinical skills. On occasions, they may be required to assist research participants undergoing MRI scans. They will complete mandatory courses as set by the University of Oxford as well as by the Oxford University Hospitals Trust (OUH), with whom the post holder will hold an honorary contract. Previous experience of working as a HCA is essential to the post. If you would like to join our friendly, welcoming team of nurses and radiographers and feel that you have the skills, knowledge to contribute, we encourage you to apply.
