Salford, United Kingdom Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Due to permanent investment building on last year’s successful project of ‘Implementing the national timed oesophago-gastric cancer pathway’ across Greater Manchester, and in partnership with Macmillan Cancer Services, we are looking for two part-time Macmillan Dietetic Assistants to support our ongoing work.

These roles will ensure that every patient with an UGI cancer diagnosis receives timely nutritional monitoring and advice preparing them for their treatment pathway.

You will join our existing Gastro Dietetic Team consisting of an ACP, 4 Band 7s, 8 Band 6s, 1 Band 5 and 2 Dietetic assistants.

The role will involve working alongside the Dietitians and Dietetic Assistant in UGI cancer to deliver the best possible care for patients across GM. This GM wide project will support our patients during diagnosis; preparing them for oncological and surgical treatment as part of the OG cancer pathway.

The role will involve face-face contact with inpatients including delivery of our snack round and arranging home enteral feed discharges, You will have your own outpatient caseload of follow up calls to assess tolerance to supplements and dietetic treatment plan. This is a primarily clinical role but will include administrative tasks associated with the management of UGI patients.

A formal Assistant Practitioner qualification is desirable, but a similar alternative qualification would be accepted and willingness to work towards this qualification.

We require a motivated, compassionate and dynamic person to work within this established service. Ideally you will have experience of working as part of a multidisciplinary team, experience of treating patients and working in an acute setting with patients.
