Job Title: Biomedical Scientist - Haematology and Blood Transfusion Specialist

Job Type: Full-Time, Locum

Location: Worcestershire Royal Hospital and Alexandra Hospital, Redditch

Department: Haematology and Blood Transfusion

Job Description:

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Biomedical Scientist to join our Haematology and Blood Transfusion department. As a Biomedical Scientist, you will play a critical role in providing high-quality analytical testing and reporting of haematological samples, including Blood Transfusion. Your expertise will support both the Acute Trust and Primary Care Trusts, ensuring timely and accurate results that are vital for patient diagnosis and treatment.

Main Responsibilities:

  • Sample Analysis and Reporting: Perform routine and some specialist testing of haematology and transfusion samples. Validate and authorize results, ensuring they are accurately reported to the requesting clinician. You will also be responsible for the microscopic examination of stained blood films and the subsequent reporting of findings.
  • Quality Control: Monitor and act on Quality Control (QC) samples, addressing any issues that arise. You will ensure compliance with internal and external QC schemes and take necessary corrective actions when QC results fall outside acceptable limits.
  • Equipment Maintenance: Conduct routine maintenance and troubleshooting of laboratory analyzers. You will handle minor issues independently and escalate more complex problems to the section leader.
  • Training and Supervision: Provide training and supervision to Trainee Biomedical Scientists (BMS), Medical Laboratory Assistants (MLA), and less experienced BMS staff, ensuring that all team members are up-to-date with the latest procedures and standards.
  • Communication and Coordination: Maintain effective communication with consultants, junior medical staff, and other healthcare professionals. You will also handle inquiries, provide urgent results, and ensure that patient data is handled with the utmost confidentiality.

Requirements:

  • Qualifications: You must be registered as a Biomedical Scientist with the Healthcare Professions Council (HCPC). This requires an approved degree in Biomedical Science and at least 12 months of experience in an approved training laboratory.
  • Experience: A solid background in haematology and blood transfusion is essential. Experience in a busy, multidisciplinary lab is highly desirable.
  • Skills and Abilities: You should possess excellent analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work under pressure. Strong communication skills are essential for liaising with medical staff and managing training responsibilities.
  • Personal Attributes: We are looking for a team player who can also work independently, especially during out-of-hours shifts. A proactive approach to problem-solving and a commitment to maintaining high standards are crucial.
