We have an exciting opportunity for a Band 7 Cystic Fibrosis Dietitian to join the Adult Cystic Fibrosis service at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust. The CF dietetic team are based within the Wessex Adult Cystic Fibrosis service, close to the outpatient clinic rooms and ward. This allows us to work closely with a friendly and highly specialist team of doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, pharmacists, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals. The service cares for 350 adults with cystic fibrosis covering Hampshire, Somerset, Wiltshire, Dorset, Sussex, Isle of Wight, Channel Islands.
For an overview of the main duties of the role please see the ‘Job Description and Main Responsibilities’ section below. To understand the day-to-day responsibilities in more detail please read the full job description document attached.
As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.
All non-clinical roles may involve a mixture of on site and remote working, Specific details and flexible working options can be discussed as part of the interview process. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.
Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 20% lower than London and 14 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.
We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated HCPC registered dietitian to work alongside a team of 3 other specialist CF Dietitians. The dietetic team provides care to CF inpatients, outpatients, those transitioning from paediatrics and ad hoc reviews.
This role provides an opportunity to gain experience in a diverse range of CF related conditions such as pancreatic insufficiency, gastrointestinal conditions, CF diabetes, and CF bone disease. You will have the opportunity to take the dietetic lead for one of these sub-specialities.
Knowledge and experience of working in CF would be an advantage but training will also be available. Previous clinical experience in nutritional support, pancreatic disease, respiratory or diabetes are highly desirable and this post would suit someone who has previously worked at a band 6 or 7 level in these specialities and is looking for a new challenge.
The post holder must be able to demonstrate effective communication, be flexible in their approach and have an insight into the challenges of managing adults with a complex chronic disease. An understanding and strong commitment to multi-disciplinary team working is essential.
We are an innovative team committed to CPD, Quality Improvement and research.
UHS is a leading teaching hospital and the department of dietetics and speech and language therapy employs over 130 staff, with clinical experts working across a range of specialities.
This is a permanent position with up to 0.7WTE in cystic fibrosis (hours/days can be negotiated). There may be scope for more hours within other specialities depending on experience.
