Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Would you like to work in a new virtual and award-winning adult eating disorder service?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Dietetic Assistant in a new and dynamic team in an innovative, virtual service for adults with eating disorders, within the HOPE (Healthy Outcomes for People with Eating Disorders) Provider Collaborative led by Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust.

The Adult Eating Disorder Step Care team offers an alternative to inpatient hospital care by providing community and inpatient-based elements combined, as required. It includes Psychology, Psychiatry, Dietitians, Nursing, Art Therapy and an administration team and operates across parts of South East and South West England. Training will be provided in person at our Oxford base.

The model is underpinned by Enhanced Cognitive Therapy (CBT-e) and is integrated with community teams and inpatient services to offer a seamless service.

You will also be part of the wider growing and dynamic mental health dietetic team across Oxford Health. This includes Dietitians, Dietetic Assistants and Dietetic Apprentices specialising in mental health, based across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and BSW (Bath & NE Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire). The dietetic team covers a wide range of clinical specialities including adult eating disorders, adult mental health, children and young people, secure in-patient services, and mental health services for older people.

This post will allow you the opportunity to develop your skills working with adults with an eating disorder and you will be involved in individual work, groupwork, quality improvement projects, as well as supporting patients to eat eg at lunchtime, snacks and be weighed in collaboration virtually.

There is a commitment to personal development and CPD and an expectation that all staff are involved in corporate departmental project work, audit/research and teaching of other healthcare professionals. All staff are actively involved in student training and we offer dietetic apprenticeships which all staff will also be involved in supporting. There is a strong Allied Health Professional community within the Trust with significant opportunities to support integrated working and showcasing the achievements of AHPs within the Trust.

Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust provides physical, mental health and social care for people of all ages across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Swindon, Wiltshire, Bath and North East Somerset.

Our services are delivered at community bases, hospitals, clinics and people’s homes, delivering care as close to home as possible

Our vision is that no matter who you are or where you are, you will tell us that you receive: “Outstanding care delivered by an outstanding team”

**Our values are**: “Caring, safe and excellent”

At Oxford Health we offer a wide range of benefits designed to support your career and wellbeing. These include:
Excellent opportunities for career progression

Access to tailored individual and Trust wide learning and development

27 days annual leave, plus bank holidays, rising to 33 days with continuous service

Competitive pension scheme

We are proud of our development opportunities for staff. Eg; DBT, CBT-e, and shadowing. Equality, effectiveness and service user experience are given high priority. The posts offer excellent prospects for cross-specialty, multidisciplinary working with a significant role to play in patient, carer and staff education, including audits/research, and supporting running of training programmes to improve patient care.

Oxford is a vibrant and interesting city with a wide range of entertainment and leisure activities available locally. There are good road and rail networks to London and Birmingham, while the beautiful Cotswolds are right on the doorstep. You will have a base in Oxford with a small amount of face to face team meetings but will be mainly working virtually.
