Trosolwg o'r swydd

We are looking for an Advanced Healthcare Assistant to join our friendly multidisciplinary HIV team at Barking Community Hospital. We are looking for someone who can provide holistic, person-centred care to our diverse cohort of patients in North East London, recognising the medical, psychological and social complexities that can affect people living with HIV, including stigma, co-morbidities, safeguarding needs and wider vulnerabilities. As an Advanced Healthcare Assistant, you would be an integral part of our team, your time will be spent in direct patient contact, undertaking phlebotomy, vital signs, point-of-care tests, supporting risk assessments and health promotion within our outpatient HIV clinic. You will also help keep the clinic rooms safe and well-stocked, maintaining infection-prevention standards and at times you may be asked to assist with chaperoning, supporting reception and basic administrative tasks so that the clinic runs smoothly.

You should be caring, organised and a team-player with good communication skills, basic IT skills and experience of working within healthcare, confidence with phlebotomy and previous HIV or sexual health experience is essential.  In return, you will be part of a supportive service and team that values the development of staff, opportunities to further develop your professional growth and encouragement to contribute to the clinic to improve care for those living with HIV.

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

The HIV service has a cohort of around 1,300 patients.  We provide holistic HIV care and support to patients and their families, carers and significant others.  We work closely with 
other HIV services within the North East London Network. 

This post is mainly based in the HIV part of the service, but the postholder may be required to periodically work within the Integrated Sexual Health Service.  

The greatest time component of this post will be face to face patient contact, undertaking phlebotomy, vital signs, in-clinic point of care tests and risk assessments.  

On a daily basis the postholder will have responsibility for ensuring rooms are checked and stocked, and equipment is kept clean.  They collaborate with other Healthcare Assistants in ensuring adequate stock levels and ordering more stock.  They will promote and encourage a caring and sympathetic care environment for all patients and their significant others / carers.  The postholder will have their own projects and areas of responsibility as part of their role. 

Gweithio i'n sefydliad

We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with. 

They are benefitting from a new electronic patient record (we were the last acute trust in London to introduce one) and our maternity services have been rated good by the Care Quality Commission. 

We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care. 

We’re proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre, Radiotherapy Centre and Hyper Acute Stroke Unit. We’re also part of the North East London Cancer Alliance. 

We run a Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.  

The majority of our 8,400 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
