Band 5 Audiologist

4 months ago


Gateshead, United Kingdom Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Gateshead NHS Trust is seeking to appoint a full time Audiologist on a 12 month fixed term contract to provide maternity cover at Band 5 level. This is a small but busy department with innovative ideas to improve the patient’s experience. We are committed to providing the highest standard of hearing care to the local population offering one-stop assessment and fitting to the majority of our patients. We work closely with the ENT Department and offer a range of diagnostic services. We have an extensive Children’s and Young Person’s Audiology service providing diagnostic and rehabilitative care for patients from birth until they exit full time education.

The ideal person is someone who can work autonomously while being part of a multidisciplinary team. Your key area of performance would be the provision of high quality patient centred hearing assessment and rehabilitation packages to our adult service users. We offer a range of flexible working arrangements and you will participate in a roster that may include some weekend working.

The main aspect of this role will be the delivery of high quality hearing care to adult patients. This will involve diagnostic assessment and the development and implementation of individual care plans as well as ongoing care for our existing hearing aid users. The post holder may be required to provide audiology support to the ENT service.

This vacancy is part of our ‘refer a friend’ scheme, this means if a friend who currently works for us has told you about this vacancy you could both receive a cash payment. The full scheme details are included with the additional documents for this role.

Based in the North East of England we provide a range of hospital and community health services from our leading facilities, including the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Blaydon urgent care centre and Bensham Hospital, all within Gateshead.

Established in 2005, we were one of the first foundation trusts in the country and since then have consistently achieved the highest levels of care for patients.

We now employ around 4,800 staff and currently provide 444 hospital beds across the Gateshead region.

Our values should be the ‘golden thread’ which runs through everything we do - they are the core of who we are. Our five values can easily be remembered by the simple acronym ICORE; Innovation, Care, Openness, Respect, Engagement.

We have a number of staff networks including the BAME network, D-Ability network, LGBTQ+ Network and the Women’s Network, to challenge us and help us to constantly improve. Our armed forces network is one of our emerging networks.

**The key duties for this role are as follows**:
The post holder will deliver diagnostic hearing assessments which will involve history taking, otoscopy, pure tone audiometry, tympanometry and speech testing where appropriate.

The post holder will be required to take aural impressions and select appropriate ear moulds for patients who require them.

The post holder will select and fit hearing aids appropriate for their patients using Real Ear Measurement to verify performance, and will provide high quality instruction and counselling, allowing the patient to achieve the maximum benefit from their hearing aid system.

The post holder will provide follow up care for existing service users and will provide audiological support to the ENT clinic. There may be an opportunity to participate in paediatric clinics depending on prior experience.

The post holder will keep accurate and detailed records using Trust patient management systems.
