Lung Health Check Assessor

6 months ago


Scunthorpe, United Kingdom Northern Lincolnshire & Goole NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The post holder will be a Registered Nurse with a respiratory knowledge. The aim is to improve patient care by gaining a greater insight into lung cancer and its causes and to improve early detection of lung cancer by defining optimal screening strategies, tailored on population, participant, lung nodule and other important risk factors. The post holder will be responsible for completing lung health checks and risk assessments and identify the right pathway for those identified through the screening for further diagnostic tests and management.

The lung health check programme will enable the early detection of lung cancer in order to save lives by early intervention and will produce a dataset which will be utilised to improve the identification and outcome of individuals with a high risk of developing lung cancer. In particular personal and lifestyle data used to generate lung cancer risk scores and clinical data relating to lung cancer diagnosis will contribute to a greater understanding of early detection methodology, improving future implementation.

The main duties of the Lung Health Checks Assessor will be to complete risk assessments of identified patients, perform spirometry, support the clinician in receiving CT reports and to co-ordinate the MDT meetings required to keep the flow of patient care effective between all providers. The post will include supporting the Lung Health Check Responsible Assessor with the coordination of the service being delivered across multiple locations in line with local CT scanning capacity, patient choice, and the day to day link with our GP colleagues and community teams, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire ICB’s, the admin hub, Business Intelligence and Operational Lead. They will also be required to represent the service at appropriate meetings within the Trust and to promote the service to the wider health community when the Lung Health Check Responsible Assessor is unable to attend.

The post holder will be expected to provide knowledge and care to the patient and their carers. The post-holder will provide education and training to patients, carers, and healthcare professionals.
