Job Description:
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.
The shift pattern for this position is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.
(Please note the salary is Pro Rata for part time hours.)
We are offering a rare and exciting career opportunity for an AHP Support Worker to join our Burns and Plastics Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy Team. You will work within a well-established multidisciplinary team providing clinical and administrative services to the burns and plastics in and out-patients. You will assist Clinical Specialist therapists in ensuring the timely and efficient provision of patient care within the wards, outpatients, and within the patient’s home, delivering and assessing equipment under the supervision of the therapist.
You will have the opportunity to manage your own patient workload, working independently and assisting therapists daily in the provision of high-quality patient care. You will be expected to use initiative and deal with patient queries and general departmental issues via telephone and emails. Your role will involve a balanced mix of direct patient care and administration, such as ordering equipment and auditing numbers each month.
We are a forward-thinking team that delivers high-quality, complex care to the Burns and Plastics Unit at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. The AHP Support Worker role is paramount to the smooth running of this unit. This position will also allow you to evolve your audit skills and develop service improvement ideas. Some NHS experience would be desirable but not essential. Life and people skills are helpful.
