Our paediatric audiology department supports NHS Newborn Hearing Screening Programme for births at The Hillingdon Hospital and offers a service to children from newborn to 18 years of age.
We specialise in the assessment (using behavioural and electrophysiological techniques) of neonates and older children, including children with complex, special needs or are generally challenging to test.
The post-holder will contribute, as appropriate to the assessment, habilitation and rehabilitation of children.
This involves the assessment, diagnosis, habilitation and rehabilitation of children referred to our service.
You will be responsible for a broad range of clinical activities; the majority of which are complex and demand a high degree of individual responsibility. You will also be involved in teaching & training, clinical & administrative audits and research.
The post-holder will be expected to maintain high clinical and professional standards at all times. They will also be involved in service development and will be expected to be adaptive to change.
The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is the only acute Hospital in the London Borough of Hillingdon and offers a wide range of services including accident and emergency, inpatient care, day surgery, outpatient clinics and maternity services.
