Podiatry Healthcare Assistant

1 month ago


Gloucester, United Kingdom Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic individual to support the diabetes podiatrists in delivering podiatric treatments to patients across the integrated diabetic foot care pathway. You will be part of a supportive multi-disciplinary team and will receive regular supervision.

Podiatrists are registered healthcare professionals specialising in the lower limb (feet, ankles, legs), providing high quality clinical care to people of all ages. A Podiatrist’s job is to work to protect people’s feet, providing preventative advice, care, assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a range of problems affecting the lower limb.

You will ideally have previous experience working with the elderly or at risk groups in a health or social care setting. The post holders will need to have the ability to work flexibly within this very busy team under direct supervision of the podiatrist. The role will offer treatment and advice to patients, carers and colleagues, as well an educational service, offering safe foot care advice under the supervision of a qualified podiatrist.

If you do not have evidenced current valid training or competencies a full training programme may be provided. This will be within both the community and acute setting by the podiatry service leading to appropriate competency for the role. During the training period the role maybe paid at a band 2.

This post is based at our acute sites, Gloucestershire Royal & Cheltenham General Hospitals but may involve working with our community team as the need arises.

As a Podiatry healthcare assistant working within the Integrated Diabetes team, you will be expected to work with the Advanced Diabetes Podiatrists in delivering podiatric treatments to patients across the integrated diabetic foot care pathway.

You will be supporting the multi-disciplinary team (MDFT) working with vascular, orthopaedic and diabetes consultants as well as supporting the integrated team working on inpatient wards at GRH/CGH.

You will be part of a supportive multi-disciplinary team and will receive regular supervision.

You will also work with colleagues in the core community team and with foot protection lead.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

This post requires the post holder to be able to undertake all statutory and mandatory training and post holders must be able to undertake physical interventions. Fitness for physical intervention will be assessed by Occupational Health.

A valid UK driving licence plus the use of own transport for business purposes is essential. For qualifying staff the Trust has a Lease Car Scheme in place and also offers a popular Salary Sacrifice Car Scheme with our partner Tusker.

The qualification, training and experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description.
