Trainee Aaa Screener

2 x Band 4 posts available for trainee AAA Screener.

Training posts are paid at 75% of band 4 until qualified

The Wales Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Programme was implemented on 1 May 2013 and aims to halve the AAA related mortality in the eligible population by 2025, that is, 65-year-old men living in Wales.

The trainee screener will be expected to undertake the level 4 diploma in AAA screening and level 3 diploma in fundamentals in health screening. The training requires both academic and practical assessments. The role will cover the South East Wales region, with occasional requirement to travel across other regions of Wales. Once training is completed the post holder will then become a permanent AAA screener. This role does require excellent hand eye coordination.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; English and/or Welsh speakers are equally welcome to apply.

Interviews are scheduled to take place at Magden Park Llantrisant
