A Vacancy at Barking Havering and Redbridge Univ Hospitals NHS Trust.
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our dynamic team at Barking, Havering and Redbridge NHS Trust as a band 4 assistant in Pelvic Health. This two-year fixed term contract will involve working alongside the wider multidisciplinary team in the Women’s Health Hub based at Ilford Health Exchange. The first pathways to be piloted within the hub will be the urogynaecology and menopause pathways.
In this role you will play a vital part in embodying our PRIDE values by delivering expert care for patients with pelvic health conditions. Your collaboration within our diverse multidisciplinary team will ensure the provision of the best possible care fostering an environment where everyone’s unique perspectives are valued.
We welcome applicants with a range of experiences, skills and perspectives. Your excellent communication skills and ability to work as part of a wider team will help support patients in line with current practice and research.
To provide skilled routine, and non-routine, clinical and technical support to the Women’s Health Hub team and clerical staff associated with the team.
To accept patients allocated by the Therapists, clinical nurse specialists (CNS) and other members of the MDT and assess and treat according to protocols and guidelines. To monitor patient progression and make alterations to intervention as required.
To work independently, with access to direct supervision as required. To maintain close communication with the team to facilitate patient care.
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
