Macmillan Rural Cancer Experience Researcher
2 weeks ago
A highly motivated, organised, flexible and enthusiastic individual is required to undertake research into the rural cancer patient experience in Mid Wales, and support the research work and development of Rural Health and Care Wales (RHCW).
The role will involve researching the cancer patient experience in rural areas of Wales, with a focus on Ceredigion, Powys and Gwynedd. This is a Macmillan Cancer Research funded project that will be considering any health inequalities that may exist for patients in rural areas, with widespread potential interest.
The role of the Macmillan Rural Cancer Experience Researcher (MRCER) will involve:
- exploring any differences that people living in urban and rural areas may encounter before, during and after a cancer diagnosis
- gaining a clear understanding of any inequalities (if any) facing people living in rural areas in receiving care and support after they receive a cancer diagnosis
- exploring different ways in which care and support is provided to people with cancer living in rural areas (international scoping) and identify areas of best practice
- researching the experience of professionals delivering cancer support services in both urban and rural areas, in order to ascertain whether any differences or difficulties exist
- providing recommendations on how to improve the care and support provided to people living in rural areas who receive a cancer diagnosis, in order that patient experiences are improved
Hywel Dda University Health Board is the planner and provider of NHS healthcare services for people in Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and its bordering counties. Our 11,000 members of staff provide primary, community, in-hospital, mental health and learning disabilities services for around 384,000 people across a quarter of the landmass of Wales. We do this in partnership with our three local authorities and public, private and third sector colleagues, including our volunteers, through:
- Four main hospitals: Bronglais General in Aberystwyth, Glangwili General in Carmarthen, Prince Philip in Llanelli and Withybush General in Haverfordwest;
- Seven community hospitals: Amman Valley and Llandovery in Carmarthenshire; Tregaron, Aberaeron and Cardigan in Ceredigion; and Tenby and South Pembrokeshire Hospital Health and Social Care Resource Centre in Pembrokeshire;
- 48 general practices (four of which are managed practices), 47 dental practices (including three orthodontic), 99 community pharmacies, 44 general ophthalmic practices (43 providing Eye Health Examination Wales and 34 low vision services) and 17 domiciliary only providers and 11 health centres;
- Numerous locations providing mental health and learning disabilities services.
The post holder will have lead responsibility for the research required by the MRCER, which will include a literature review (international) of patient experience in both urban and rural areas; desk-top exploration of current and planned future support provision for cancer patients in rural Mid Wales (Ceredigion, north Powys and Gwynedd); one-to-one interviews and focus group discussions; compilation of rural cancer patient experience case studies; writing up reports and findings, all whilst working to an approved project plan.
You will be able to find a full job description and person specification attached within the supporting documents.
The ability to communicate in Welsh is desirable for this post. If you do not meet the Welsh Language requirements specified, the Health Board offers a variety of learning options and staff support to help you meet these mínimal desirable requirements during the course of your employment with us.
Interviews will be held on 27/04/2023.
