Dietetic Support Worker

2 months ago


Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time
The Role

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Dietetic Support Worker to join our dynamic team in NHS Lanarkshire. The successful candidate will provide nutritional support to patients with/at risk of undernutrition, working closely with healthcare professionals to deliver high-quality care.

The NHS Lanarkshire Dietetic Service has a clinical remit for people of all ages across a diverse population, with areas of both high deprivation and affluence. Our community and hospital-based dietetic teams work together to provide care to patients across inpatient and outpatient settings.

Key Responsibilities
  • Support clinical service delivery within domiciliary settings and via remote (video/telephone) appointment modes.
  • Provide nutritional support to patients with/at risk of undernutrition.
  • Work closely with healthcare professionals to deliver high-quality care.
  • Develop and maintain effective relationships with patients, families, and carers.
  • Contribute to the development and implementation of nutritional care plans.
Requirements
  • SVQ III in healthcare or equivalent experience working within a caring environment/role.
  • Ability to work with people and as part of a multidisciplinary/agency team.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to carry out assigned patient care tasks effectively within a busy environment.
  • Ability to work unsupervised.
  • Active participation in the Personal Development Plan process to fulfil the requirements of continuing professional development.
  • Working knowledge of basic information technology.
Desirable Qualifications and Experience
  • Experience in a healthcare assistant role and/or in primary care.
  • Experience working in the domiciliary/outpatient setting or with paediatrics or patients with mental health conditions/learning disabilities.
  • Experience of supportive role in nutrition and diet advice to patients or clients.
  • Basic technical skills in nutrition or willingness and ability to learn.
Contract Type
  • Fixed Term or Secondment for 6 months.
  • Part-Time.
  • 22.5 hours.

Please note this is a part-time post and the salary for this position will be pro-rata.

Please note this is a fixed-term post for 6 months. Where a post only has temporary funding and an existing member of NHS Lanarkshire staff wishes to apply, this will be treated as a secondment. The employee MUST already have a written agreement from their line manager to be released on a secondment before applying for the post.

Location and Working Pattern

This role will be based in Dietetics within Beckford Street.

The working pattern for this role will be over 3 days.

Why NHS Lanarkshire?

NHS Lanarkshire is a supportive environment where you will have the chance to add to your skills and further your career. Some of our benefits include:

  • A minimum of 27 days annual leave increasing with the length of service.
  • A minimum of 8 days of public holidays.
  • Membership of the NHS Pension Scheme, with life insurance benefits.
  • Paid sick leave increases with length of service.
  • Occupational health services.
  • Employee counselling services.
  • Work-life Balance policies and procedures.

We are committed to recruiting a workforce that fully reflects the diverse make-up of our society. A place where every individual can thrive, develop and succeed based on skill, knowledge and talent, regardless of race, disability, gender, sexual orientation, care experienced* or any other dimension that can be used to differentiate people from one another.

We anticipate a high level of interest in this position and may close the advert once sufficient applications are received. Please complete and submit your application early.

*Care-experienced applicants are people who live/have lived with foster parents/kinship carers or who live/have lived in a residential children's setting/secure unit.

Please note for all vacancies where a driving licence is required this must be a full UK/EU/EEA licence.

NHS Lanarkshire has a legal obligation to ensure that it does not employ any worker who has not been granted the relevant permission to work in the UK.

We are required to check the entitlement to work in the UK of all prospective employees, regardless of nationality or job category. UK Visas & Immigration rules are available at https://www.gov.uk/.

Prospective applicants are encouraged to check eligibility in advance of applying for vacancies in NHS Lanarkshire.

From 1 April 2024, the working week for NHS Agenda for Change workers in Scotland will be reduced. Full-time hours will reduce from 37.5 to 37 hours (pro rata for part-time staff) without loss of earnings.

NHS Lanarkshire will implement this change but it may not be possible to fully transition from 1 April and there may therefore be some areas of the organisation where implementation may take longer. If the department is currently unable to safely accommodate the reduced hours from 1st April, you may be required to work 37.5 hours per week until the department can meet the requirements without impacting patient safety - you will, of course, be remunerated accordingly. NHS Lanarkshire is committed to full implementation of the 37-hour working week across all areas as soon as it is safe to do so.
