Description
This is an exciting role funded to primarily focus on Treating Tobacco Dependency (TTD) amongst in-patients and facilitate access to Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT).

As a Health Coach you will work with patients to provide advice and information on the impact of smoking on their health and medical treatment, and use behaviour change interventions to motivate patients to consider the use of NRT. Health Coaches work holistically to address lifestyle choices and health behaviours.

The Treating Tobacco Dependency service falls within the Trust’s Health Inequalities Programme. You will champion Personalised Care principles in clinical settings and amongst clinical colleagues and focus on ‘what matters most to patients’, work holistically and in a person-centred way, while identifying and tackling the barriers patients face when trying to maintain positive behaviour change. You will also signpost patients to community services when appropriate.

At the RUH we put people at the heart of what we do, working together as one team to make a difference for our patients, each other, and our community. No matter what your role is, we value everyone’s contribution in supporting the exceptional, person-centred care we pride ourselves on.

We are proud to be in the top 20 best hospitals to work for in the country.

We are committed to creating a compassionate and inclusive environment. This can be seen in our growing community of staff networks – celebrating successes and creating opportunities to listen and learn. We value our differences, champion kindness and civility, and truly believe that diversity makes us stronger.

A culture of learning, developing and innovating is the thread that runs throughout our whole organisation. We want to support you to thrive, taking your career to its full potential.

We value staff wellbeing, with a well-established programme of support. We believe in a holistic approach spanning all aspects of living a healthy life, including physical, emotional, spiritual and financial wellbeing. We’ve even got a pool!

We are committed to supporting you and hope you want to join our team.
