A Vacancy at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
If you enjoy supporting people with swallowing and community difficulties across a variety of community settings – this is the job for you!
The joint Acute and Community SLT Team are a supportive, friendly and social group of therapists, SLT apprentice, assistants and admin staff serving the Fylde Coast population. We strive for continued improvement and innovation to provide a high-quality responsive service.
Over recent years we have streamlined our telehealth capabilities and continue to improve our long-established videofluoroscopy service. We are also able to offer pharyngeal electrical stimulation within the inpatient setting. We are supportive of, and committed to, continuing professional development and the training of SLT students.
Due to internal staff changes, the Adult SLT team have a permanent Band 4 Assistant Practitioner role within our community team. Our service users describe our team as "Dedicated, Fantastic, Kind, Friendly, Positive, Amazing" If this sounds like a team you would like to be a part of, we would love to hear from you.
You will work within the Adult Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) Team to support the SLTs in the assessment and treatment of adults with dysphagia and disorders of communication within a variety of community settings eg. clinic, domiciliary, telehealth, groups.
You will work collaboratively with others and at times with a degree of autonomy within agreed protocols in line with your own level of competency and scope of practice.
In addition, you will:
• carry out treatment programmes, designed by or in collaboration with the qualified SLTs and implement these either under the direction of SLT or independently in line with your own level of competency and scope of practice.
• manage a caseload under the direction of the supervising SLT
• undertake other therapy-related tasks as required eg. making therapy materials, communication books etc.
• keep up-to-date with the writing of patients’ notes and patient administration systems.
• liaise with SLTs, the multi-disciplinary team and others with regards to patient care.
Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is situated on the Fylde Coast. The Trust provides services to the 440,000 residents of Blackpool, Fylde & Wyre and North Lancashire, as well as specialist tertiary care for Cardiac and Haematology patients.
As one of the United Kingdom’s largest coastal resort, Blackpool has plenty to offer its residents – it’s not just a good place to work; it’s a great place to live. In addition to its bustling centre and historic seafront, the town is world famous for its many attractions, including the famous Blackpool Tower.
Blackpool also offers a number of scenic cycling routes round our local parks and across the surrounding countryside, as well as boasting panoramic views of the coast on its picturesque Promenade. Further afield, Blackpool also benefits from less than three-hour connections via rail to Edinburgh in the north and London in the south.
We recommend that all individuals employed in patient facing roles, or those located on a ward or department where patients receive a service should be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
Please see attached job description and job & person specification for further details. Please ensure you address the job and person specification within your application.
If you would like an informal chat to learn more about the post, please email greta.garnett@nhs.netto arrange a suitable time.
