Description
We are delighted to advertise a temporary maternity leave cover Band 7 UGI Dietetic post working as a member of the Greater Manchester Oesophago-gastric Surgical Multi-Disciplinary.
The role will sit within our Gastro Dietetic Team with an ACP, 15 Dietitians, 3 dietetic assistants, and admin and clerical staff. The team assesses and manages patients with both foregut and hindgut diagnoses. You would form part of the wider Salford dietetic team, which consists of nearly 70 team members across acute and community including assistants and admin.
You will be working within the inpatient and outpatient clinical UGI team, assessing nutritional status and delivering dietetic care from diagnosis, through surgery and post-operatively. Your caseload will involve UGI out-patients and supporting the inpatient caseload on the surgical and critical care ward as needed applying your skills in managing enteral and parenteral nutrition. Considerable experience working in surgery, oncology or gastroenterology alongside a variety of nutritional support skills are required for this role.
You will work alongside the Greater Manchester Oesophago-gastric Multi-Disciplinary Team to provide holistic care and treatment planning for those patients diagnosed with an UGI cancer, plus those with benign UGI conditions. This role will support the establishment of early dietetic assessment for patients diagnosed with an UGI cancer in the East Cheshire region, optimising their nutritional status during diagnosis.
We require a dynamic leader to join our established UGI senior team who is adaptable, motivated and compassionate to work within this established service. It is essential that you are skilled in working as part of a multidisciplinary team specifically large scale MDTs in relevant oncological tumour groups. Experience of assessing and managing patients independently in an acute and outpatient setting is essential. You will be supporting patients throughout their early cancer diagnosis and treatment pathway and beyond so excellent communication skills and flexibility are essential qualities.
We are an innovative department so the role will include elements of research, service development, audit, and quality improvement. You will be expected to lead/co-lead in these areas and on the one stop clinic to ensure high quality care, collect and analyse outcomes and drive forward improvements.
