Our patient group often have multiple complex care needs and face health inequalities and issues with accessing care due to drug and alcohol addiction issues, homelessness and mental health problems.

The role will involve being part of initiatives aiming to enhanced care of patients with Decompensated Liver Disease and the Dorset wide Hepatitis C Elimination Programme as well as projects looking at early detection of liver disease and Primary Liver Cancer.

We are looking to appoint an individual with either a background in care administration and coordination with a desire to be more patient facing or an applicant with established experience as a care assistant caring for this patient group in a healthcare setting.

Using clinical skills developed through specialist training carry out fibroscanning, assessments including blood pressure, height, weight, frailty assessment and to calculate FRAX and FIB4 scores.

Our values define who we are as #TeamUHD. They underpin everything we do now and in the future. They define how we treat our patients, visitors, and each other, our valued teammates and colleagues.

UHD are investing in services across the Trust, with many being transformed and developed following merger and the New Hospital Programme.
