Leicester, United Kingdom University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a nurse/healthcare professional to join the Innovative Management, Prevention And Care for long term Conditions (IMPACT) team as an Education and Research Facilitator based at the Leicester Diabetes Centre, Leicester General Hospital.

This post will be part of a team developing, delivering and evaluating complex interventions and self-management education programmes for people with, or at risk of, long-term health conditions (including diabetes) as part of research trials as well as implementation.

The Leicester Diabetes Centre (LDC), based at Leicester General Hospital, is committed to growing international research, education and innovation. It is one of the largest facilities in Europe for conducting first class clinical research and is world-renown for both its healthcare professional and person-centred patient education (e.g. our award-winning DESMOND programmes).

Working closely with other teams at LDC and UHL, healthcare professionals, people with long-term conditions, academics and collaborators, the post-holder will develop ideas, write curriculums and supportive resources, train others, gain feedback and evaluation in order to enable the delivery and refinement of our various self-management education programmes. Our current projects include developing a complex intervention for young adults with type 2 diabetes (M3), developing a group-based and digital self-management education programme for people with type 2 diabetes and diabetic foot ulcer disease (MiFoot) as well as implementing I Can Live Healthily for children and young people. More details about our work and projects can be found here:

We are one of the biggest and busiest NHS trusts in the country, incorporating the General, Glenfield and Royal Infirmary hospitals. We have our very own Children’s Hospital and run one of the country’s leading heart centres.

Our team is made up of more than 17,000 staff providing a range of services primarily for the one million residents of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

We work with partners at the University of Leicester and De Montfort University providing world-class teaching to nurture and develop the next generation of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals, many of whom go on to spend their working lives with us.

Our purpose is to provide ‘Caring at its best’ and our staff have helped us create a set of values that embody who we are and what we’re here to do. They are:
We focus on what matters most
We treat others how we would like to be treated
We are passionate and creative in our work
We do what we say we are going to do
We are one team and we are best when we work together

Our patients are at the heart of all we do and we believe that ‘Caring at its best’ is not just about the treatments and services we provide, but about giving our patients the best possible experience.

The post holder will require excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and have experience working within the field of chronic disease including diabetes. This post will have the option to work from base or home, but must be prepared to travel nationally when necessary to meet the needs of the service.
