We currently have available an opportunity for a Speech and Language Therapist who would like to develop specialist skills in Head and Neck Cancer.

Supported by highly specialist SLT colleagues working in Head and Neck Cancer and the wider MDT, this post offers opportunities to extend and develop your dysphagia skills, undertake training in laryngectomy surgical voice restoration management, and to support people with communication needs as a result of Head and Neck Cancer. We work closely with colleagues at the tertiary centre at Castle Hill Hospital, Hull which brings further opportunities for joint working, peer supervision and learning. As a Macmillan professional, you will also be able to access education and resources through Macmillan Cancer Support.

The post holder will be an integral member of the multidisciplinary Macmillan Living with a Beyond Cancer clinic held in Scunthorpe alongside nurse specialists and a specialist dietitian. As an autonomous dysphagia practitioner, you will have access to the weekly SLT led videofluoroscopy clinic also located in Scunthorpe General Hospital.

We offer regular supervision, joint working, training and CPD opportunities to further develop your clinical skills. The Trust offers a range of Quality Improvement training opportunities with built-in support to work on your chosen service improvement project. Alongside colleagues in the team, you will provide clinical leadership to more junior SLT's and support student placements.

The postholder is to both provide and support a high standard of care within Speech and Language Therapy, undertaking all aspects of clinical duties as an autonomous practitioner.

To work as part of a multi-disciplinary team. To be responsible for providing a specialist service comprising assessment, management and treatment for adults with disorders of communication and swallowing (dysphagia) dependent on specific role.

To manage a defined caseload of patients using advanced evidence based/patient centred principles to assess, plan, implement and evaluate interventions, including discharge planning and facilitation.
