Advanced Radiographer

NHS AfC: Band 7

Job overview

We have a vacancy for a Band 7 CT Team Lead radiographer looking for a new challenge. 

Harrogate and District Hospital Trust have some excellent opportunities for applicants.  We have a bold capital replacement scheme underway; our ED suite has already been remodelled, we have two modern DR rooms. The main department is being re-built, due to open later this year with new equipment, CT suite and MRI suite.

As part of the national development of CDCs, we have extended our hours of service at Ripon Community Hospital.

Please note, Radiographers require experience in NHS radiography practice, HCPC registration and associated English qualifications (IELTS).

Main duties of the job

We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated team player.

We are a small district general hospital supporting community services as well as acute workflow. our core hours are 8am to 8pm Monday to Friday with acute services covered at weekends and overnight with onsite shifts.

We are a reasonably small team and therefore Radiographers need to be flexible.  All Radiographers are expected to take part in out of hours duties. 

The department provides plain film imaging and fluoroscopy services to hospital and community wide clinical areas including trauma, orthopaedic, cardiac catheter lab, theatre and mobile radiography as well as GP referrals.  The department also provides a full range of Ultrasound, CT scanning, Nuclear Medicine, DEXA, MRI scanning and symptomatic Mammography services.
